WWII Innovation Machine: Freedom's Forge and the Arsenal of Democracy - Interview with Bill ConleyHow did America transform from a peacetime economy to the "arsenal of democracy" before entering WWII? In this compelling interview, Dr. Bill Conley—former Director of Electronic Warfare at DARPA and current CTO at Mercury Systems—delves into the insights from Freedom's Forge by Arthur Herman. The book chronicles how industrial leaders like William Knudsen and Henry Kaiser revolutionized U.S. defense production.
This week, Scott was joined by his colleagues Kevin and Eugenia—in what is sadly her last episode before leaving Lawfare—as well as special guest Peter Harrell for a deep dive into the week's national security news, including:“Tariff or Takeoff.” The Trump administration got into what is arguably its first major international spat this week when Colombia's refusal to accept a U.S. military flight returning migrants to that country led President Trump to threaten an array of punitive measures, from visa cut-offs to sanctions and tariffs. After Colombian President Gustavo Petro backed down, the White House was quick to claim victory. But how sustainable is Trump's strategy? And is it really the route to restoring respect for the United States that the White House claims it is?“Talk to Me When They Get To ‘Project: The Fifth Element.'” Last week, the Trump administration announced Project Stargate—an initiative not to revive ‘90s sci-fi classics, but to instead make a massive investment in the U.S. development of artificial intelligence and related technologies. But a few days later, an announcement by Chinese AI platform DeepSeek indicating it had reached comparable results at a lower cost triggered a sudden decline in the value of AI-related stocks. What do these developments tell us about the competitive dynamics surrounding AI? And how should the United States be navigating them?“A Friend in Need is a Friend Shit Out of Luck.” The Trump administration has issued an across-the-board freeze of U.S. foreign assistance programs for 90 days as it reviews them for consistency with the administration's vision of “America First” foreign policy. But what ramifications will this pause really have for U.S. foreign policy and beyond?For object lessons, Kevin plugged the Seattle University School of Law's Technology, Innovation Law, and Ethics Program. Eugenia got back to her roots in recommending the indie RPG video game Wildermyth, which follows a troupe of fantasy heroes from modest origins through their sunset years. Scott out-nerded Eugenia by recommending a pen-and-paper indie RPG, the physically gorgeous Thousand Year Old Vampire. And Peter kept it professional by recommending Arthur Herman's book “Freedom's Forge” as a case study on U.S. industrial policy that may have lessons for our current historical moment.Use promo code RATIONALSECURITY at the link below to get an exclusive 60% off an Incogni annual plan:https://incogni.com/rationalsecurityTo receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

Has the Pax-Americana truly fallen? Can America's sole dominance over global influence be restored? What can we learn from the WWII-era that we can apply to today's multi-front and multi-faceted threats? Hudson Senior Fellow Arthur Herman rejoins the show to illustrate why desire for global power and influence requires an industrial base to do so and a balancing of means to commitments. Read Arthur's National Interest piece, "Toward a New Pax Americana."
It's time for American industry's Lazarus moment. At least, that's what a growing coalition of contrarian builders, investors, technologists, and policymakers have asserted over the past several years. American might was built on our industrial base. As scholars like Arthur Herman detail in Freedom's Forge, the United States won World War 2 with industrial acumen and might. We built the broadest middle class in the history of the world, put men on the moon, and midwifed the jet age, the Internet, semiconductors, green energy, revolutionary medical treatments, and more in less than a century. But the optimism that powered this growth is fading, and our public policy ecosystem has systematically deprioritized American industry in favor of quick returns and cheap goods from our strategic competitors. Is there a way to restore our domestic industry? What does movement-building in this space look like? We're joined by Austin Bishop, a partner at Tamarack Global, co-founder of Atomic Industries, and co-organizer of REINDUSTRIALIZE, and Jon Askonas, Senior Fellow with FAI and Professor of Politics at the Catholic University of America. You can follow Austin on X here and Jon here. Read more about REINDUSTRIALIZE and the New American Industrial Alliance here and check out some of Jon's research on technological stagnation for American Affairs here.
Arthur Herman joins John and Abe to discuss his article “China and Artificial Intelligence: The Cold War We’re Not Fighting,” from the July/August issue of COMMENTARY. It’s time to stop worrying about the technology itself and start preparing to counter the threat it poses in the hands of our authoritarian adversaries. Give a listen.
WarRoom Battleground EP 562: Deep Dive With Dr. Arthur Herman
Scandinavia has always been a world apart. For millennia Norwegians, Danes, Finns, and Swedes lived a remote and rugged existence among the fjords and peaks of the land of the midnight sun. But when they finally left their homeland in search of opportunity, these wanderers—including the most famous, the Vikings—would reshape Europe and beyond. Their ingenuity, daring, resiliency, and loyalty to family and community would propel them to the gates of Rome, the steppes of Russia, the courts of Constantinople, and the castles of England and Ireland. But nowhere would they leave a deeper mark than across the Atlantic, where the Vikings' legacy would become the American Dream.Today's guest Arthur Herman, author of The Viking Heart, discusses this historical narrative but matches it with cutting-edge archaeological discoveries and DNA research to trace the epic story of this remarkable and diverse people (despite myths of racial purity misappropriated by groups like Nazi ethnographers). He shows how the Scandinavian experience has universal meaning, and how we can still be inspired by their indomitable spirit and the strength of their community bonds, much needed in our deeply polarized society today.
President Biden has labeled Donald Trump “the primary threat to freedom and democracy at home.” But Glenn reviews some footage out of Dearborn, Michigan, that suggests otherwise. Pete Buttigieg says it's safe to walk your dog in D.C. … it's not. Russia accuses the U.S. and NATO of financing a terrorist attack. Congress is voting on whether to reauthorize FISA Section 702, which would allow the FBI to secretly spy on Americans without warrants. Glenn speaks with Rep. Warren Davidson (R-Ohio), who has an amendment that would stop this. Historian Arthur Herman joins to describe the disturbing parallels between today's hostility against Israel and World War II.

Arthur Herman, Hudson Institute senior fellow and author of Freedom's Forge: How American Business Produced Victory in World War II, joins the show to compare the Arsenal of Democracy of World War II to what is needed today. Herman argues that to counter China, Russia, and other autocracies, the United States needs to lead an "Arsenal of Democracies," working with our allies, and we need to start now.
In this episode of “The Ben & Marc Show”, a16z's co-founders Ben Horowitz and Marc Andreessen take on the biggest and most important film of the year – Christopher Nolan's latest blockbuster “Oppenheimer”. The film – based on the 2005 biography “American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer'' by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin – chronicles the life of the American theoretical physicist, whose direction of the top secret Manhattan Project forever changed the course of world history. In this one-on-one conversation based on YOUR questions from Twitter, Marc and Ben examine the historical accuracies (and inaccuracies) of Nolan's epic work, explore in-depth the life of the enigmatic physicist himself, and tackle – from all angles – the social and philosophical aspects of communism, a theme that weighs heavily in the film, as Oppenheimer's association with party members led to his political downfall. We hope you enjoy this episode!

A Chilling Signal That the Days of Free Wheeling Are Going to Be Reined In': Arthur Herman on China
In this special episode, we sat down with Arthur Herman, senior fellow at the Hudson Institute and director of the Quantum Alliance Initiative. He sheds light on the innovation race between the United States and China, the ongoing microchip wars, and where our data is actually going. One area in the spotlight is the microchip wars. Herman expands on his Forbes column The Chip War With China Is Just Getting Started, saying: “We're just getting started. First, in terms of getting our own semiconductor house in order by realizing how important it is to keep research and development to build a strong, homegrown semiconductor industry again, like what we had in the 1970s and in the 1980s, not depending upon foreign supply chains for those microchips. But also, secondly, … realizing that we have leverage in dealing with China and being able to deny them access to our expertise, to our designs, or to our innovations in semiconductor and microchip technology. But that's just the start of what we really need to do if we're going to have a strong and secure semiconductor industry in the United States.” But that's not the only area of strategic innovation. Citing his Forbes column Can the U.S. Halt China's Quantum Quest?, Herman said: “We also again have to realize that the ways in which China has been able to help itself to many of our key technologies and scientific breakthroughs has to come to an end, that we can't share information and knowledge with them by any means at the rate at which we have of having large numbers of, for example, Chinese doctoral and postdoctoral students studying in American universities, that this is a strategic advantage that China is able to seize upon and has used in the past—we have to limit their access to that kind of advantage again. But you know what, both in the case of AI and in the case of quantum, we've also got supply chain issues, too. You know, quantum technology is going to depend on a whole range of different hardwares that go into the making of quantum computers, of making of quantum random number generators, of the components that go into quantum communications.” ⭕️Watch in-depth videos based on Truth & Tradition at Epoch TV
In today's special episode we sat down with Arthur Herman, Senior Fellow at Hudson Institute and Director of the Quantum Alliance Initiative. He sheds light on the innovation race between the U-S and China, the ongoing microchip wars, and where our data is actually going.
This time, instead of an atomic bomb, the atoms make up a quantum computer. In this special report, we look at China's goal to be the first to get their hands on the ultimate cyber weapon, how China stacks up against the United States in terms of this race, and how Americans' personal information is at the heart of it all. Joining us to help shed light on the topic are Arthur Herman, director of the Quantum Alliance Initiative and senior fellow at the Hudson Institute; and Casey Fleming, CEO of intelligence and security strategy firm BlackOps Partners. ⭕️Watch in-depth videos based on Truth & Tradition at Epoch TV
In this special episode, we sat down with Arthur Herman, Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute and Director of the Quantum Alliance Initiative. While microchips have been making the rounds in news headlines, there's a recent report by the Center for Security and Emerging Technology (CSET) at Georgetown University titled https://cset.georgetown.edu/publication/silicon-twist/ (Managing the Chinese Military's Access to AI chips). But what are AI chips and and what happens if China's military get a hold of these? Let's dive in.

We're in times of war, and war is a time when nations reflect. We think about the implications of our choices and the opportunity costs that could mean lives saved or lost at the front line. This is especially true when talking about disruptive military technologies. Joining us today to discuss the high-tech race between the United States and China is Dr. Arthur Herman, Senior Fellow at the Hudson's Institute and Director of the Quantum Alliance Initiative. We will also talk about his book "Freedom's Forge: How American Business Produced Victory in World War II" and how it applies to what some would call "Cold War 2.0" fast-forward 80 years to today.

After decades of cuts to shipbuilding and maintenance, the United States Navy has been stripped down to a fleet barely larger than it was 100 years ago, in 1916. Meanwhile, China has dramatically increased its spending on its Navy, as well as on its Air Force, cyberspace and electronic warfare capabilities. Alarmingly, Beijing is building islands in the South China Sea, threatening trade routes and menacing allies. President Trump made it a priority to expand the American “blue water” fleet to 355 battle-force ships. His plan would have increased shipbuilding by only $6.7 billion and would have launched us on a trajectory to protect America's maritime supremacy. Shortly after taking office, Joe Biden slashed this from his budget. With me to explore this and many other national defense concerns - in a fascinating, wide-ranging and strategic conversation - is Russ Vought, the founder of The Center for Renewing America and the Trump Administration's Director of the Office of Management and Budget and Arthur Herman, a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute focusing on defense, energy and technology issues and author of To Rule the Waves and Freedom Forge: How American Business Produced Victory in World War II As a maritime nation, the US is dependent on control of the sea to protect its people as well as its flow of trade. At its founding, America understood that its strength lay in a strong navy. But in the last seventy years, the United States has wandered far from this wisdom, and suffered endless “boots on the ground” debacles. Emphasizing sea power - and air, space and cyber power - would get us back on track. This is an issue that is barely talked about, but needs to be.

Tune in to hear Pastor Wilson talk about the Florida school shooting and gun control basics. Then he plugs Idea of Decline in Western History, and wraps things up with a talk about the Greek word “Akrasia”. Happy Plodding! Show Notes: Gun Control Basics government collapsed during Florida Shooting people naturally cry out to their gods (government) people are crying out to the same government that failed them the right to keep and bear was not about deer hunting, it was adopted so that people could fight against the rise of tyranny from government agents 1.) trump is literally hitler 2.) we should surrender all our guns to him Idea of Decline in Western History written by Arthur Herman how it came about that people assume things are falling apart you would think with the doctrine of evolution this would not be the case read this as a companion to your study of eschatology Akrasia means excess or lack of control used twice in NT (1. Cor. 7:5, Matt. 23:25) one of the reasons that nonbelievers, even nonbelievers in positions of influence and importance, cannot control themselves is that self-control is a fruit of the spirit they can control one thing, but not the other the Spirit gives us the ability to be self-controlled across the board
