Terrorism is not a static threat—it's evolving in complexity and reach, demanding new ways of thinking and acting to counter it. Staying ahead means knowing what to look for and equipping the intelligence and security community with the insights needed to act decisively in an unpredictable world. In this third installment of the All-Source miniseries, we're bringing together two leading voices on counterterrorism: Russ Travers, Retired Senior Intelligence Executive and National Security Official, and Jason Lee, Industry Practice Lead at Moody's. Together, they'll help us dig into some of the most pressing questions shaping today's global security environment: How has terrorism evolved over the decades, and what does this reveal about the future of global security? What distinguishes foreign terrorism from domestic terrorism, and how do these differences shape the way we approach prevention and response? Should drug trafficking organizations be classified as terrorist groups? Where do terrorist groups operate in less obvious spaces, and what can uncovering these hidden networks teach us about their strategies and vulnerabilities? In an age of overwhelming data, how can intelligence agencies separate actionable insights from noise to stay one step ahead of emerging threats? What advanced tools and capabilities should counterintelligence teams possess to effectively dismantle complex, adaptive networks of terrorism?

Well today marks President Trump's 100 days in office and the accomplishments are extraordinary. The White House has released a flurry of information from the $5 Trillion in investments in the U.S. economy to securing the border and protecting Americans from criminal aliens to rebalancing the global trade order. The Trump administration has also shattered the legacy media hacks stranglehold on the White House and the unfair reporting they are notorious for. I stepped back into the White House, this time as an Influencer to participate in the first ever Influencer Briefing with Karoline Leavitt. I was able to sit down with Kaelan Dorr, the White House Deputy Communications Director to get an inside scoop how the administration delivers news, the role that new media is playing in this White House and the creative and flourishing environment the media team has in its ability to operate. After that, Ron Vitello, Senior Advisor to U.S. Customs and Border updates us on how President Trump has created the most secure border in history in less than 100 days. The legacy media has spun some fantastical tales about "due process" on some of the deportations that have taken place and Ron Vitello gives us the facts.

Would you risk it all to expose the truth? Discover the extraordinary story of John Kiriakou. Dr. Phil welcomes John Kiriakou, a former CIA counterterrorism officer and best-selling author, who sacrificed his freedom to expose one of the government's darkest secrets. Kiriakou played a pivotal role in counterterrorism after 9/11 but made headlines when he revealed the CIA's use of waterboarding, denouncing it as torture. This brave act led to his indictment under the Espionage Act—a law meant to punish spies—and landed him in prison for 23 months. In this thought-provoking episode, John shares his story, from his work in intelligence to his fight for transparency and ethical treatment of whistleblowers. As the recipient of the Joe A. Callaway Award for Civic Courage, Kiriakou reflects on the moral dilemmas of his career and the ongoing battle to champion human rights. With Dr. Phil, he explores the critical question: What happens when exposing the truth comes at the ultimate personal cost? Thank you to our sponsors!

Kevin BrewerTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Kevin Brewer. Kevin is a U.S. Navy veteran, who served for 7 years in multiple overseas duty stations; before being employed by both the Department of Justice (DOJ) & the Department of Defense (DOD). In this episode, we chat about why he joined the Navy, and what his job was in it. We discuss his duties as a cryptologic technician, and what his role was in narco terrorism, money laundering, drug trafficking, counterintelligence, and counter terrorism. Kevin has Top Secret security clearance, and I ask him to tell me all of the secrets! He politely declines, and then we move onto his health issues. While serving in Afghanistan, Kevin developed several serious health issues which culminated in his gaining nearly 100 pounds, and an inability to exercise, run, or even walk to the refrigerator. He was in a pretty dark place both physically and emotionally. He ended up doing a ton of online research and began to figure out some things that turned his health around. Kevin changed his diet, adjusted his mindset, and sought out specialized STEM CELL treatment. Slowly things began to change. Kevin lost some weight, started narrowing down the food items that were triggering him and causing inflammation, and eventually lost the weight. He gives most of the credit to a change in his mental performance and adjusting his perspective. Now Kevin has acquired a depth of understanding with regard to 'Mental Performance Mastery' & 'Heroic Performance', as well as regularly competing in Spartan Races. Kevin's new mission is to share what he has learned and spread the knowledge he has gained during this process. He has a daily affirmation podcast called RISE AGAIN FROM THE STRUGGLE, which has released nearly a thousand 1–2-minute episodes of encouragement & inspiration. Follow Kevin on Instagram at Coach Kevin Brewer and check out his podcast everywhere podcasts are available.

Ahmed M. Abozaid's Counterterrorism Strategies in Egypt: Permanent Exceptions in the War on Terror (Routledge, 2021) reveals how counterterrorism discourses and practices became the main tool of a systematic violation of human rights in Egypt after the Arab Uprising. It examines how the civic and democratic uprising in Egypt turned into robust authoritarianism. By interrogating Egypt's counterterrorism legislation, the book identifies a correlation between counterterrorism narratives and the systemic violation of human rights.

A Note from James:As you listen to this episode, ask yourself: would you do what my guest Scott Payne did for 28 years? He's a retired undercover FBI agent who spent nearly three decades infiltrating some of the most dangerous groups in America—white supremacist organizations, outlaw biker gangs, and domestic terror cells. His new book, Code Name: Pale Horse, reveals the harrowing details of his undercover life, including moments where he was seconds away from being exposed and killed.Scott spent 18 months embedded with the Outlaws motorcycle gang.

Threats to America are at an all time high. Our national security and law enforcement professionals have warned us. Our military leaders are preparing for anything and everything. Representative August Pfluger is the chairman of the Homeland Security Subcommittee on Counterterrorism and Intelligence. He is now a 3-term Congressman representing Texas's 11th District. He is also an Air Force Academy graduate and an F-22 fighter pilot with over 300 combat hours. As a member of the bi-partisan military Veterans alliance, the For Country Caucus, one of his biggest efforts is to build coalitions across the aisle. With Homeland Security, terror threats and nation-state brinksmanship front and center, Fran Racioppi sat down with the Congressman to ask him what exactly the biggest threats to America are. They dug into the theory of an imminent terror attack, what the battlefield with China really looks like, and why preventing denial of service attacks and the cyber-security risks against America's critical infrastructure should be at the top of the priority list.They also discussed the future of SOF on an undefined battlefield, how the reduction of fraud, waste and abuse will open up funds for discretionary spending, and why disagreement should be encouraged; but when the decision is made, everyone needs to get in line and execute. Watch, listen or read our conversation from Congressman Pfluger's office. Don't miss our full coverage from Capitol Hill. Special thanks to For Country Caucus for setting up this series.

In this explosive video, we dive deep into the shocking question: Why can't we secure the UK from terror attacks? With recent tragedies, including the terrorist murder of MP David Amess, we ask why the government has failed to take adequate action. Home Secretary Yvette Cooper has refused to order a public inquiry into the attack—why the silence? What is being hidden? Is there a cover-up surrounding the failures of the anti-terror organization Prevent? We also address the chilling case of Southport mass killer Axel Rudakubana, who was flagged by Prevent but still managed to commit a horrific act of violence. How many more innocent lives must be lost before the government takes real action to protect the public? Are Prevent and the Home Secretary truly fit for purpose when it comes to combating terrorism? With the UK being an island nation, securing our borders should be a top priority. But the question remains: How much more terror do we have to endure? Join the debate on the failures of UK counter-terrorism strategies, border security, and government accountability. Let's discuss if the UK can ever truly be safe from terror, and whether our politicians are doing enough to protect us. Subscribefor more political analysis, breaking news, and free speech debates.

President Trump's executive action granting clemency to all of the January 6th insurrectionists – violent and non-violent alike – has been met with concern by legal experts and people who have been studying and reporting on militia groups like the Oath Keepers and the Proud Boys for years. Kara speaks with Dr. Amy Cooter, director of research at the Center on Terrorism, Extremism, and Counterterrorism at the Middlebury Institute of International Studies and author of Nostalgia, Nationalism and the US Militia Movement; investigative reporter Tess Owen who has covered violent extremist groups, including the J6 protesters extensively; and Paul Rosenzweig, former Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy at the Department of Homeland Security under George W. Bush, who specializes in issues relating to domestic and homeland security about the message the pardons send to violent militias, the impact of social media (and Elon Musk) on far-right extremism, and whether Trump has the authority to deputize these groups, especially on the border.
