The National Security Hour with Col. Mike and Dr. Mike – On the Tehran Front, Iran’s often-stated goals have not wavered in recent public statements.

The National Security Hour with Major Fred Galvin – Galvin draws the straight line that connects a Japanese midget submarine sunk in Pearl Harbor at 6:37 am in the morning of December 7, 1941 — one hour and 23 minutes before the aerial attack that killed 2,403 Americans — to a Presidential Daily Brief titled "Bin Laden Determined to Strike in US" that did not produce decisive action, to...

The National Security Hour with Major Fred Galvin – Why does a Major (Nidal Hasan) who killed 13 Americans face a firing squad — while the Generals and Admirals whose strategic decisions contributed to the deaths of 6,875 Americans and the wounding of over 50,000 more collect fourth stars, book deals, and television contracts? Fred Galvin, author of A Few Bad Men brings that question directly to...

The National Security Hour with LTC Sargis Sangari – The temptation is to treat China’s difficulties as an American victory. That would be shortsighted. A sharp Chinese downturn could disrupt commodity markets, weaken trading partners, and send economic pain across borders. Competition between nuclear powers demands discipline. Washington should seek leverage without assuming that...

The National Security Hour with Major Fred Galvin – The one issue where adversaries may need each other most: artificial intelligence governance. Not because Washington and Beijing agree on how to run their societies — they do not. But because if AI escapes its sandbox, it does not check the nationality of the civilization it disrupts. Fred examines the narrow but vital case for a bilateral...

The National Security Hour with Jack Maxey – Patriotism demands scrutiny of our own government. Loyalty to America means insisting on honest casualty reporting, accountable spending, and independent judgment toward every foreign partner. No administration deserves blind faith. No political party owns the Constitution. No alliance excuses silence when American lives are at...

The National Security Hour with Blanquita Cullum – “Blind Justice” is the standard and hope of the American Judicial System. Really? Who gets a pardon and still chooses to plead the “5th”? Pleading the Fifth Amendment means refusing to provide testimony that might self-incriminate you. Fauci—formerly pardoned by Biden invoked the Fifth Amendment during a Senate Homeland Security and...

The National Security Hour with Col. Mike and Dr. Mike – Spanberger's stated goals are the end of private gun ownership in the state.

The National Security Hour with Jack Maxey – Governments race to gain an advantage. Each has reasons to move fast. The rest of us are left to trust systems their own creators cannot always explain. America cannot pretend this technology will disappear. Rivals will pursue it. Criminals will use it. We need people who understand these systems well enough to test them hard, challenge their...

The National Security Hour with Col. Mike and Dr. Mike – This membership has given China access to the funding, technology, and markets that it needed to become a world economic power. Now that China has that status, U.S. and other Western business leaders and companies steadily increase their presence in China and therefore aid Beijing in becoming wealthier, more militarily powerful, and...

The National Security Hour with LTC Sargis Sangari – The opportunity is real. Iraq could evolve into a regional hub that weakens Iran’s leverage and offers a different model for the Middle East. That will require discipline from Baghdad, patience from Washington, and courage from Iraqis who still believe their country can be more than a proxy battlefield...

The National Security Hour with Major Fred Galvin – This isn't science fiction. Every policy in this scenario is publicly advocated for, on the record, with applause.

The National Security Hour with Jack Maxey – The machinery of power keeps grinding ahead while the country is told not to worry. That is the oldest trick in the book. If you want to weaken a republic, first numb the people who are supposed to defend it. We need citizens who can still tell the difference between a republic and a managed illusion. We need competence, not...

The National Security Hour with Blanquita Cullum – Why the attempt to minimize the truth or alter the facts? What are the stakes? How important is it to respect and honor the dead, survivors, and heroes from that day? Joining host Blanquita Cullum is Scott Faulkner, former Chief Administrative Officer of the House of Representatives and author of Naked Emperors, his Congressional...

The National Security Hour with Col. Mike and Dr. Mike – Mr. Richardson was appointed by President Trump to begin plans to reduce the size and budgets of FEMA and eventually DHS.

The National Security Hour with LTC Sargis Sangari – The record is not vague. The 9/11 litigation uncovered a long and ugly chain linking Iran, Hezbollah, and al-Qaeda. From the anti-Soviet jihad in Afghanistan to the Khartoum meetings in Sudan, militants, financiers, and state sponsors found common cause. Hezbollah taught al-Qaeda how to kill at scale...

The National Security Hour with Major Fred Galvin – From Tehran and Beirut to Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, and the more than 350 Iran-supported attacks against American service members and diplomats in the 30 months preceding the Feb 28th 2026 Iran war, America has confronted multiple generations of terrorism, proxy warfare, and violent Islamist extremism. Now another battlefield is...
