On Trump's foreign policy, the 2nd time round. Historian and podcaster Daniel Bessner joins Alex Hochuli and contributing editor Lee Jones to ask how this era of rot and decay will proceed under Trump II, from Ukraine to China and beyond. We discuss: Will we see "America First transactionalism"? Does Trump have a capable cadre to bend the state to his will? What will Trump's relationship be to the deep state? How important are generational splits in attitudes to the US empire? Will there be a peace deal in Ukraine? Where does that leave 'Atlanticism'? Is confrontation with China baked in? Is the Middle East the key to world peace? Links: EU blows hot and cold over Trump, Benoît Bréville, Le Monde diplomatique America First, Russia, & Ukraine, Lt. General (Ret.)

General (Ret.) Frank McKenzie was the Commander of United States Central Command when the U.S. took out Iranian General Qassem Soleimani and ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

And when we fail to punish bad actors, stand by our allies, or uphold our commitments, our enemies – from Iran to Russia to China – are emboldened. In our conversation with Gen. McKenzie, we discuss his new book, lessons from his service under multiple administrations, and the decision making leading up to America's withdrawal from Afghanistan. General (Ret.)

You would think a 41-year ultra-decorated career in the United States Air Force with more than 7,000 flying hours and 337 combat missions in Vietnam would be enough travel for this Lebanon, Tennessee native. But no. "General Bradley" as he was known by his 75,000 U.S. Air Force reservists under his command, created the Lamia Afghan Foundation. Inspired by a little girl in Afghanistan simply asking for a pair of boots, Bradley and his wife Jan have made numerous trips to the Middle East region providing millions of pounds of humanitarian aid, while also building schools and clinics to serve Afghan girls. His compassion is matched by his candor during this intense conversation detailing life after the Taliban takeover and his beautiful efforts (giving all credit to his wife) to make life a little better for those under a brutal regime. You'll come away knowing there are true angels on earth. AMONG THE TOPICS: SECOND TIME APPLYING FOR THE AIR FORCE IS THE CHARM. VOL FOR LIFE.

From the beginning, Grimsley and his staff have defined the purpose of the new Department of Veterans' Affairs as leading and enabling “a state-wide coalition of partners to create and sustain an environment in which Veterans and their families can thrive as valued and contributing members of the South Carolina community and the Nation.”Grimsley talks with Walter Edgar about how the Department strives to achieve that purpose and the way it is expanding and building partnerships to do so.
One of the biggest problems with American Christianity today is the misconception that God saved you only so you can go to Heaven. That's not true! The Lord also saved you so that you could be a warrior in His kingdom here on earth. On today's Family Talk, Lt. General (Ret.) Jerry Boykin, who commanded elite Delta Force combat missions, outlines the spiritual application of five revered and timeless military mottos. For example, Semper Fi, the Marine slogan which means "Always faithful," should remind us of our call to be faithful to God as He has always been with us. Galatians 6:9 says, "Let us not become weary in doing good."
