Josh Hammer
Joshua Benjamin Hammer (born February 12, 1989) is an Jewish conservative political commentator, attorney, and columnist. He is also the author of Israel and Civilization: The Fate of the Jewish Nation and the Destiny of the West. He is a syndicated columnist through Creators Syndicate, senior editor-at-large for Newsweek, and host of The Josh Hammer Show, a Newsweek podcast and syndicated weekly radio show which, in October 2025, joined Salem Media Group's Salem Podcast Network and Salem News Channel.
Hammer was born in Westchester County, New York, to a Jewish family.
Hammer graduated from Duke University in 2011 with a Bachelor of Science degree in economics. After graduating, he worked in antitrust research. He later earned his J.D. degree from the University of Chicago Law School in 2016. In law school, he was active in the Federalist Society and the Edmund Burke Society. He has also been a fellow with the Claremont Institute and the James Wilson Institute.
After graduating from law school, Hammer worked for sixteen months at the Houston office of Kirkland & Ellis LLP. He then clerked for Judge James C. Ho on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit.
While establishing himself as an editor at The Daily Wire and contributor at TheBlaze, he also worked as of counsel at the First Liberty Institute.
Starting in 2020, Hammer joined Newsweek as opinion editor. He has since assumed the title of senior editor-at-large. He is also the host of The Josh Hammer Show, a Newsweek podcast and syndicated weekly radio show. Also in 2020, he joined Creators Syndicate as a syndicated columnist and became a research fellow at the pro-national conservatism Edmund Burke Foundation, where his scholarship "specializes in the Anglo-American jurisprudential tradition."
In 2023, he was named a fellow at the Florida-based Palm Beach Freedom Institute.
His recent scholarship includes the article "Common Good Originalism," published in the Harvard Journal of Law and Public Policy, in which he attempts to theorize a "middle-ground position" and fusion of originalism and common good constitutionalism.
