Over the last decade, China has carried out the largest illicit transfer of capital, innovation, data, and technology in human history. One of the most overlooked elements of this heist is the role of industrial espionage and the theft of corporate secrets. The government-backed intelligence apparatus designed to clone American technology has strengthened Chinese competition across all industries and, most notably, enabled advances in military hardware, microchips, pharmaceuticals, and telecommunications. In his newest book, The Great Heist: China's Epic Campaign to Steal America's Secrets (Harper Collins, 2025), David Shedd, with Andrew Badger, exposes the CCP's campaign and presents a counterstrategy informed by his distinguished career in intelligence. But what exactly are they stealing and how are they carrying it out? Why is the IC so silent on this? And why do we insist on bringing more Chinese nationals into our universities? David Shedd is the former deputy director and acting director of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA). He also served as chief of staff for the director of national intelligence and National Security Council senior director and as special assistant to the president for intelligence under George W. Bush. He began his intelligence career in 1982 immediately after his studies at Geneva College and Georgetown University, and served nearly thirty-three years in a number of capacities in the DNI, National Security Council, CIA, and in U.S. embassies overseas. Since leaving the federal government, he has worked at The Heritage Foundation and as an adjunct professor and is currently working as an independent national security consultant.Read the transcript here.Subscribe to our Substack here.Find The Great Heist here.

Join the Anchoring Truths Podcast for a tour de force from our friend Prof. Josh Blackman. In the height of the politicization of the judicial branch, the federal courts cannot be reformed through unilateral disarmament, argues Blackman.

According to the gun control group Everytown, defensive gun uses are rare things. But as Heritage Foundation's Amy Swearer notes, even using Everytown's data (which dramatically undercounts DGUs) these incidents are far more common than gun-involved homicides.

Mary Vogt, VP of Strategic Communication at the Heritage Foundation, joins Marc Cox to discuss a massive Somali-linked fraud scheme in Minneapolis, highlighting government waste and Governor Tim Walz's oversight. She also weighs in on the Boy Scouts' shift toward a “woke” agenda, the Department of War distancing itself, and the implications of a recent Republican special election win in Tennessee as a model for future GOP strategy.

Hour 3 opens with Mark, Kim, and the team discussing winter road safety and lighthearted text-line commentary before diving into serious topics. Mary Vogt from the Heritage Foundation covers Somali-related fraud in Minnesota, government waste, and a Republican special election win in Tennessee. The conversation then shifts to the Trump administration's handling of drug boats, strikes on cocaine and fentanyl shipments, and the political debate around the War Powers Act. Kim's “On a Whim” segment closes the hour by dissecting TSA's new $45 fee for travelers without a Real ID or passport, examining the rationale, enforcement, and public pushback.

Americans have a glum view of the economy, but that is not expected to affect their consumer spending as holiday shopping kicks off.     According to a recent Fox News survey, 76% of Americans have a negative view of the economy. At the end of President Joe Biden's term, this number was 70%. Yet while Americans appear to be losing faith in the vitality of the U.S. economy, they don't plan on slowing their own holiday shopping habits.     The International Council of Shopping Centers reports that between Thanksgiving Day and Cyber Monday, 235 million American adults are expected to spend $127 billion, for an average of $542 a person—a $13 increase from the average spent over the long holiday weekend last year.     Millennials are projected to be the biggest spenders, with the International Council of Shopping Center estimating the generation born between 1981 and 1996 will drop an average of $764 a person during the five-day shopping period.     So what's the disconnect? Why do the same Americans who feel the economy is flooding appear to feel good enough about their personal bank account to go out and drop several hundred dollars in just a few days? Nicole Huyer, a senior research associate in The Heritage Foundation's Thomas A. Roe Institute for Economic Policy Studies, joins this week's edition of “Problematic Women” to discuss.     Also on today's show, we discuss spending differences between men and women. Plus, will New York City-Mayor elect Zohran Mamdani actually be able to implement his socialist wish list in the Big Apple? And if he can, what will that mean not only for New York City's economy, but the economic health of the nation.     Catch the conversation on this week's edition of “Problematic Women.”   00:00 Welcome! 02:16  Generational Shopping Habit 11:20 Trump and Elon are Back? 19:02 Economic Long Game vs. Short Term Gains 20:28 Zohran Mamdani and NYC's Affordability Crisis 28:50 Christmas Season Begins 34:13 Final Thoughts and Farewell Connect with our hosts on socials!   Elise McCue X: https://x.com/intent/user?screen_name=EliseMcCue Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elisemccueofficial/   Virginia Allen: X: https://x.com/intent/user?screen_name=Virginia_Allen5 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/virginiaallenofficial/   Morgonn McMichael: X: https://x.com/intent/user?screen_name=morgonnm Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/morgonnm/ Keep Up With The Daily Signal   Sign up for our email newsletters:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.dailysignal.com/email⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠     Subscribe to our other shows:    The Tony Kinnett Cast: ⁠https://megaphone.link/THEDAILYSIGNAL2284199939⁠ The Signal Sitdown: ⁠https://megaphone.link/THEDAILYSIGNAL2026390376⁠   Problematic Women:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠https://megaphone.link/THEDAILYSIGNAL7765680741⁠   Victor Davis Hanson: ⁠https://megaphone.link/THEDAILYSIGNAL9809784327⁠     Follow The Daily Signal:    X:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠https://x.com/intent/user?screen_name=DailySignal⁠ Instagram:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.instagram.com/thedailysignal/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  Facebook:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.facebook.com/TheDailySignalNews/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  Truth Social:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://truthsocial.com/@DailySignal⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  YouTube:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/dailysignal?sub_confirmation=1⁠    Subscribe on your favorite podcast platform and never miss an episode.

Heritage Foundation's Foreign Policy Vice President also breaks down the Biden Administration's missteps in Ukraine, the stalled efforts on designating key Muslim Brotherhood factions as foreign terrorist organizations, and the historic opportunity for Saudi Arabia to join the Abraham Accords.

Diana Furchtgott-Roth, Director of the Center for Energy, Climate, and Environment at the Heritage Foundation, discusses how to modernize America's air traffic control system. She examines the inefficiencies in the current infrastructure, the potential for advanced technology to improve safety and efficiency, and policy solutions that could reduce delays and costs for both travelers and airlines.

An Interview with Todd Gaziano, President, Center for Individual Rights At a time when constitutional rights face continuing pressures---from campus censorship to race-based government policies---one organization has spent the last 35 years winning legal battles that set lasting precedents for individual liberty. The Center for Individual Rights was founded in 1989 to defend constitutional principles through strategic litigation. Its first major Supreme Court victory, Rosenberger v. University of Virginia in 1995, established that public universities cannot discriminate based on religious viewpoint---a principle that continues to influence cases to this day. CIR also secured landmark victories challenging race-based admissions policies in the University of Michigan cases. Our guest on this episode of Voices of Freedom is Todd Gaziano, who became CIR's president in 2023. Before joining CIR, he led legal centers at both the Pacific Legal Foundation and the Heritage Foundation, served as a commissioner on the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, and worked in the Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel and as chief counsel to a House subcommittee. He discusses CIR's strategic approach to defending equal protection, religious liberty, free speech, and competitive federalism---and explains why these constitutional battles matter for every American. Topics Discussed on this Episode: Todd's path to the Center for Individual Rights and the most urgent threats to constitutional rights today The 30-year legacy of Rosenberger v. University of Virginia and its impact on campus free speech CIR's current cases challenging race-based policies in Portland schools and within federal programs Religious liberty and competitive federalism: why these areas matter Concerns and hopes for the future of constitutional rights in America

Geopolitics of the Gulf and Eurasia: US-Saudi Relations and China's Global Strategy — Victoria Coates, Vice President, Heritage Foundation — Victoria Coates addresses U.S.-Saudi relations, noting that technology transfer risks from China exist but remain manageable through export-controlled F-35 versions. She argues that Russia is dependent on Beijing in the Ukraine war, which serves China's strategic objective of distracting the West from Indo-Pacific developments. A perceived Russian victory would embolden China toward aggression in East Asia. Coates identifies security guarantees and Saudi openness to the Abraham Accords as key priorities for regional stability.  1922 PEKING

On this episode of the podcast, Amanda Head talks with author and The Heritage Foundation's Senior Fellow for Technology Daniel Cochrane to unpack the high-stakes antitrust fight against Facebook (now Meta) and what it reveals about Big Tech's grip on American life. Cochrane breaks down the 2019–2020 antitrust case targeting Meta's acquisitions of Instagram and WhatsApp, explaining why Judge Boasberg ultimately ruled the company wasn't a monopoly due to rising competition from TikTok and YouTube.Cochrane goes deeper, arguing that Meta's real advantage isn't just market share, it's “stickiness," or the way the platform locks users into its ecosystem, harvesting data, shaping behavior, and exerting enormous political influence. He also details reports of collusion with the FBI, Meta's ambitions to break into the Chinese market, and why current antitrust laws are too outdated to rein in today's tech giants.With AI accelerating societal change, especially among young people, Cochrane calls for modernized tech laws and urges listeners to take back control of their privacy by minimizing digital footprints and limiting social media exposure.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

he Trump administration is taking the War on Drugs in a bold direction, using aircraft carriers, intelligence networks, and direct military strikes to target alleged smuggling vessels in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific. Supporters of militarization argue that previous strategies to stop cartels have failed, and only aggressive deterrence will stop the crisis.

Immigration is a key part of the American story. Many, many people have come to the United States committed to loving and serving their new country.  But nations have to exercise caution and prudence with the way that they conduct immigration. Bad policy and abuses of the system can lead to all kinds of problems, as we know well here in the United States. The Second Trump Administration has gone a long way toward improving immigration policy, and one of the areas now being discussed is that of H1B visas. These are visas intended to be issued to skilled workers, but there are serious concerns about the number of visas being issued and the ways that they affect American citizens. To understand this issue, I sat down with Simon Hankinson, Senior Research Fellow in the Border Security and Immigration Center at The Heritage Foundation.—Follow Simon Hankinson at Heritage.org: https://www.heritage.org/staff/simon-hankinsonSimon's Book, The Ten Woke Commandments You Must Not Obey: https://thetenwokecommandments.com/—Have thoughts?
