US forces launched bomb and missile strikes against Iranian nuclear facilities, followed soon by an Iran-Israel ceasefire and the beginning of what could be a diplomatic realignment across the Middle East. The GoodFellows regulars and Hoover Senior Fellows Niall Ferguson, John Cochrane, and former White House National Security Advisor H.R. McMaster discuss the collateral impact of the Trump administration's move against the Iranian regime. The fallout includes: a possible expansion of Abraham Accords participants (as the Gulf States help Iran pursue a more peaceful nuclear program); NATO members willing to invest more in military readiness; the media's second-guessing the effectiveness and wisdom of the B2 sorties; plus what message Trump's use of military might—as opposed to revolving-door diplomacy—sends to the world's various mischief-making capitals (Beijing, Moscow, and Pyongyang). Recorded on June 27, 2025.

Lt. General H.R. McMaster, former National Security Advisor under President Trump and senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, joined The Guy Benson Show today to address the growing divide within the MAGA base over U.S. involvement in Iran. McMaster argued that the division is misplaced, reminding listeners that Trump has been remarkably consistent, favoring diplomacy and deal-making, but never shying away from force when necessary, as seen in the takedown of Soleimani. McMaster explained why removing hostile entities is in America's strategic interest and gave a broader global update, outlining the threats posed by Russia's continued war in Ukraine and China's mounting aggression toward Taiwan.

Rhule, McMaster, which one?

Israel launches air attacks intended to destroy Iranian nuclear and ballistic missile capabilities, Iran retaliates with missile strikes on Israeli cities, and the world waits to see what comes next – a return to the status quo, neighboring countries drawn into the conflict, or an end to the Iranian theocracy? GoodFellows regulars and Hoover senior fellows Sir Niall Ferguson and former White House national security advisor Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster discuss whether the Israeli goal of ending Iran's nuclear ambitions is possible without U.S. assistance, how President Trump might respond if asked to directly engage, if the conflict will expand beyond the present bilateral exchanges, plus the outcome of regime change in a culturally diverse Iran (a peaceful transition or Libya 2.0?). After that: in honor of the 250th birthday of the United States Army, H.R. shares the thoughts of a fellow American general tasked with winning a war for liberty.

In this insightful interview, Shelley Howard, founder and CEO of College Ready, hosts Raphael McMaster, a creative professional turned nonprofit leader focused on empowering youth with essential emotional and mental health tools. Raphael shares how his journey led him to develop a toolkit of seven fundamental life tools designed to build self-awareness, emotional resilience, and self-control among young people. These tools have been co-created with input from psychologists, therapists, educators, and youth themselves to ensure they resonate with today's generation.Raphael explains that his program transcends artistic or athletic backgrounds, making it accessible to all teenagers who face modern challenges such as screen addiction, anxiety, and societal pressures. The seven tools—awareness, acceptance, intention, gratitude, compassion, forgiveness, and connection—equip teens to observe their thoughts without attachment, manage their emotions, visualize goals, and cultivate resilience.The program has been successfully integrated into California high school curricula and is expanding through an innovative online platform launched by teens, for teens. Their ambitious goal is to empower one million conscious youth over five years, creating a grassroots movement of mental and emotional wellness. Raphael emphasizes the universal nature of these tools, offering examples of how they have transformed lives, including those struggling with serious issues like addiction and academic stress.Ultimately, the conversation highlights the critical need for teaching emotional intelligence and mindfulness skills early, filling the gap left in traditional education. This initiative supports parents and educators in nurturing self-reflective, empowered young adults capable of navigating life's challenges with clarity and confidence. HighlightsCreativity is a gateway to emotional resilience but is not required to benefit from this toolkit.The seven foundational life tools teach youth to become the “aware observer” of their thoughts.Visualization and intention-setting help students clearly define goals and boost motivation.Gratitude practice transforms negative thinking and fosters quicker emotional recovery.Connection to self, others, nature, and a personal higher power strengthens mental wellness.The program is embedded in high school curricula and extended via a teen-led online platform.Goal to empower 1 million conscious youth in five years, creating a positive societal ripple effect. Key InsightsAwareness as the cornerstone: Teaching youth that they are not their thoughts but observers of their thoughts enables cognitive distancing. This foundational mindfulness skill allows teens to interrupt negative thought patterns before they become emotional burdens, leading to better mental health outcomes.Power of intention and visualization: Raphael underscores that knowing what you want—even if you don't yet know how to get there—is critical for success and resilience. This forward-looking mindset fosters optimism and persistence through uncertainty, vital traits for young adults entering a complex world.Reframing negativity through gratitude: The “G flip” technique—flipping complaints into gratitude—serves as a rapid cognitive shift to reduce stress. This resilience tool teaches youth to find silver linings, promoting emotional flexibility in the face of adversity such as academic pressures or social challenges.Compassion, forgiveness, and connection as healing forces: Alongside self-awareness, these emotional skills help youth navigate relationships and internal pain. Forgiveness is presented as an inward practice, freeing individuals from resentment and promoting psychological freedom, critical for healthy development.Addressing contemporary challenges head-on: Raphael acknowledges the unique difficulties of the current generation, including screen addiction, social media pressures, and mental health crises. These tools are tailored to help youth thrive amid overstimulation and rapid societal changes.Youth-led education and empowerment: The emerging consciousness broadcast center model puts teens in leadership roles teaching their peers, enhancing relatability and creating authentic mentorship. Peer-led initiatives increase engagement and internalization of these life skills.Bridging the gap in education: Traditional schools rarely provide practical mental and emotional health curricula. Integrating these tools as state-approved courses and extracurricular programs fills this essential gap, supporting youth in becoming self-reflective, resilient, and ready not just for college, but for life. Connect with Shellee Howard: WebsiteYouTubeInstagramLinkedInEmail: shellee@collegereadyplan.com Connect with Rafael MacMaster: WebsiteYouTubeInstagramFacebookEmail: rafael@indivisiblearts.org

America and China take a 90-day time-out in their dispute over tariffs; President Trump's tour of the Middle East—the first overseas trip of his second term—raises unsettling questions about both his regional strategy and his family's business dealings; and hostilities between nuclear-armed India and Pakistan raise questions of behind-the-scenes great-power machinations amidst “Cold War 2.” Hoover senior fellows Niall Ferguson, John Cochrane, and Lt.

And welcome to the program on your Tuesday afternoon. And look at that. Hey. It's not raining. That's awesome. I was, out walking the dogs this morning, and my neighbor walked out of his, his, garage there. And he goes, oh, look. It's sunny. I said, yeah. Right? I know how you feel, pal. I know how you feel. But don't you worry. We still got that little chance of rain coming in, pretty much for the rest of the week that's gonna be around with us. So there you go. The dogs are actually loving getting outside again. Well, I was thinking last night. I was standing at the window, my kitchen window, eating my supper because I don't know what it is. But I eat breakfast standing up, and I eat dinner standing up. I don't know why. Lunch, I sit down with my wife. That's our big meal of the, of the day is lunch. But for my dinner, I was standing there at the window as I had eaten my salad, and, I got a thought. I got a thought about exactly what they're gonna be doing in Colombia, and it wasn't a good thought either. In fact, I'll tell you, it really is a good thought when I think about Colombia. I don't I don't remember last time I thought about Colombia fondly. It's been a long time, especially when our where our state legislature is concerned. So we know that governor Henry McMaster is real big for whatever reason. We don't know what the reason is, do we, governor McMaster? That he is all for this doctor Simmer to be the head of public health here in South Carolina. He's all for this guy. Even though this guy was all for mask mandates, He was all about the vaccines. He was all about vaccinating children, and we're finding out all of this stuff about the, these so called vaccines. More studies coming out every single day. And here we've got Simmer that was just a complete acolyte of doctor Fauci. He was I mean, in fact, I mean, you might even wanna say that that, Simmer is a Fauci wannabe. So because governor McMaster has somebody to make happy, he appointed doctor Simmer to be the head of public health in South Carolina. Now nobody wants this guy. I haven't talked to a single person. Not one single person said, you know, I think doctor Simmer would be a perfect fit. No. Everybody goes, lord, no. Keep that guy away from there. Get him out. We don't want him. So you had the senate bring it up, and we started talking about it on the program. And I I asked you guys to call your your state senator, and, boy, you did. You called your state senator like nobody's business, and they knew better. They knew better than to confirm this guy for the to be the head of the public health. So they they kinda dropped it. Kinda dropped it. They had a hearing. They had another hearing, and then you heard nothing else about it. Now the word is he never had the votes, so they didn't vote. He didn't have the votes, so they just didn't vote. And then it struck me last night. It struck me last night. Rather than doing what the people of South Carolina want, the governor is gonna do what he wants. He wants simmer because I don't know what favors he's gotta pay off. I don't know who he's gotta make happy, but he wants simmer in that post. So my thought was, you know what governor McMaster is gonna do? He's gonna make an off session appointment because you see the house and the senate, they're they're done for the year. They put in their fifty one days. They're done. We'll see you in January. Governor McMaster is going to appoint doctor Simmer in an off session appointment to be the head of public health here in South Carolina. That is going to happen. Go take that to the bank. That is absolutely gonna happen. And then what's gonna happen once the senate gets back in January? Well, number one, they're either not gonna bring it up. They're just going to well, that's and, basically, that's what's gonna happen. They're gonna get back in session, and they're just gonna let Simmer stay as the head of public health. That's it. Now I can imagine what ...

The Hoover Institution Center for Revitalizing American Institutions webinar series features speakers who are developing innovative ideas, conducting groundbreaking research, and taking important actions to improve trust and efficacy in American institutions. Speaker expertise and topics span governmental institutions, civic organizations and practice, and the role of public opinion and culture in shaping our democracy. The webinar series builds awareness about how we can individually and collectively revitalize American institutions to ensure our country's democracy delivers on its promise. The seventh session discussed Building Strategic Competence: An Urgent Priority for Government and the Academy with H.R. McMaster and Stephen Kotkin on Wednesday, May 7, 2025, from 10:00 - 11:00 am PT. We might define strategic competence as the ability to integrate all elements of national power and efforts of like-minded partners to advance US interests. The nation needs leaders who can think in real time and understand what it takes to implement ideas and strategies on the ground. The academy has an important role in educating leaders to compete effectively in war and in competitions short of war. A reinvigoration of history in higher-level education is particularly important, as many courses in diplomatic and military history have been displaced by theory-based courses, which tend to mask the complex causality of events and obscure the cultural, psychological, social, and economic elements that distinguish cases from one another. Some theories risk sapping students of strategic empathy and encourage them to reduce complex problem sets into frameworks that create only the illusion of understanding. A growing interest in applied history in some universities is a promising development.

This week on Face the Nation, President Trump begins the next phase of his agenda with a key staff shakeup. Mike Waltz is out as National Security Adviser, and Secretary Marco Rubio is in, adding another job to his growing list of responsibilities. With Trump's push for a nuclear deal with Iran and an end to Russia's war in Ukraine, we'll ask Republican Mike Turner about the impact of the shuffle. We'll also get insights from one of Trump's national security advisers in his first term, retired Lieutenant General H.R. McMaster. Plus, Illinois Democratic Senator Tammy Duckworth will join us with an update on the Armed Services Committee's bipartisan request for a probe into Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's conduct. As the U.S. and Ukraine finalize their new economic deal, what does that mean for the security relationship between the two countries? We'll get the latest and more from Ukrainian Ambassador Oksana Markarova. And finally, as President Trump seeks to end federal funding to public broadcasting, we'll ask NPR CEO Katherine Maher and PBS CEO Paula Kerger about the impact and how they plan to fight back.

Join The Right Honorable Boris Johnson, former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 2019 to 2022, and Hoover Senior Fellow, H.R. McMaster, as they discuss the war in Ukraine, British and European politics, and the future of the transatlantic relationship. Reflecting on the special relationship between the US and UK, Johnson provides his thoughts on how the relationship is evolving and the importance of US-UK cooperation in tackling Chinese aggression, as well as the broad nature of geostrategic competition with the axis of aggressors of North Korea, China, Russia and Iran, the need for a strong coordinated international response to Russian aggression and why we should continue to care deeply about the war in Ukraine. ABOUT THE SPEAKERS The Right Honorable Boris Johnson served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 2019 to 2022. Johnson first entered Parliament in 2001, representing Henley for the Conservative Party. He quickly rose to become Vice Chairman of the Conservative Party in 2003. In 2008, he was elected Mayor of London, a position he held for two terms, overseeing significant urban development and leading the city through the 2012 Olympics. Johnson returned to national politics in 2015 and served as Foreign Secretary from 2016 to 2018. In 2019, he became the leader of the Conservative Party and assumed the role of Prime Minister. Under his leadership, Britain formally left the European Union, fulfilling the referendum mandate of 2016. In 2022, he stepped down as Prime Minister and, in 2023, resigned from Parliament. Johnson published his memoir, Unleashed, in 2024. H.R. McMaster is the Fouad and Michelle Ajami Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University. He is also the Bernard and Susan Liautaud Fellow at the Freeman Spogli Institute and lecturer at Stanford University's Graduate School of Business. He was the 25th assistant to the president for National Security Affairs. Upon graduation from the United States Military Academy in 1984, McMaster served as a commissioned officer in the United States Army for thirty-four years before retiring as a Lieutenant General in June 2018.

Rejected by voters last November, the Democratic Party is perhaps afforded new life given President Trump's decline in popularity and economic uncertainty ahead. What is the party's message?  Rep. Ro Khanna, a prominent progressive voice whose California district includes parts of Silicon Valley, joins Hoover senior fellows Niall Ferguson, John Cochrane, and H.R. McMaster to discuss tariffs and the use of executive power, “blue state” mismanagement, the feasibility of a “Marshall Plan” for economically downtrodden parts of America, plus the chances of Democrats parting ways with their “old guard.” After that: the three fellows weigh in on the Trump presidency at the 100-day mark, the future of Catholicism after the death of Pope Francis, tax exemption for universities, their go-to takeout food (pizza yes; haggis, no), plus two April landmarks—the 250th anniversary of the Battle of Lexington and the 50th anniversary of the fall of Saigon. Recorded on April 28, 2025.

Join Ms. Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, National Leader of Belarus and Head of the United Transitional Cabinet, and Hoover Senior Fellow, H.R. McMaster, as they discuss the Belarusian opposition, her fight for freedom, and the importance of countering Russian aggression in Europe. With Belarus at the center of geopolitical tensions in Eastern Europe, Ms. Tsikhanouskaya discusses the nature of the Stalinist Lukashenka regime and mechanisms used to maintain their grip on power, what the opposition has accomplished and its future priorities, including the release of political prisoners and holding free and fair elections, her views on the war in Ukraine, and the future of Belarus and other democracies relative to the axis of aggressors of Russia, China, Iran and North Korea. ABOUT THE SPEAKERS Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya is the National Leader of Belarus and Head of the United Transitional Cabinet. Independent observers determined that Tsikhanouskaya won the Belarusian presidential election on August 9, 2020, defeating the long-standing dictator Alexander Lukashenko. Tsikhanouskaya entered the presidential race after the Lukashenko regime arrested her husband for declaring his own candidacy. The regime forced her into exile, but she inspired mass peaceful protests throughout Belarus. In response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Tsikhanouskaya launched an anti-war movement to prevent Belarus' involvement and led underground resistance efforts against Russian troops. She has advocated for the release of over 1,500 political prisoners and free and fair elections, earning her numerous international awards and two Nobel Peace Prize nominations. H.R. McMaster is the Fouad and Michelle Ajami Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University. He is also the Bernard and Susan Liautaud Fellow at the Freeman Spogli Institute and lecturer at Stanford University's Graduate School of Business. He was the 25th assistant to the president for National Security Affairs.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 118: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: ICE Director Tom Homan and his boss Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem must be arrested for contempt of court. It SHOULD be President Ted Bundy Trump being arrested for contempt of court – potentially for ignoring the orders of the SUPREME COURT - but we already know how the laws of this land have been corrupted to protect the greatest criminal in our history. That it cannot be will simply hasten the latest iteration of the constitutional crisis created by a lawless chief executive who still has the military behind him. We are headed for a flashpoint, perhaps as soon as today. To summarize: Trump believes he is God. But in the interim it is time for U-S District Judge Paula Xinis to send this rogue government a message. In fact it is well past time. “Time” was two days ago, at 5 PM. Noem and Homan are now in contempt of HER order in the case of the Noem-Homan-ICE abduction, the DISAPPEARING of a Maryland man already under the PROTECTION of the government of the United States, Kilmar Abrego Garcia. They are in contempt of the orders not of some judge – as the fascist Stephen Miller and his brownshirts call any representative of law and order – they are in contempt of the LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. It is not some judge. They are in contempt of the NATION and they are on the VERGE of being in contempt of the Supreme Court. The point, of course, may be the admission that they abducted someone by "mistake." They sent a Massachusetts-born immigration lawyer a notice to leave the country by "mistake." They warned ICE will keep illegal "ideas" from entering the country, by "mistake." Maybe these are mistakes - God knows, it all involves Elon Musk - but now they see an opportunity to exploit even mistakes to deliver the message, passively but still aggressively, that even when they are wrong they are still RIGHT because even when they are wrong what do you think YOU are going to be able to DO about it? What do you think YOU are going to be able to DO about it, Mrs Abrego Garcia? What do you think YOU are going to be able to DO about it, Judge? What do you think YOU are going to be able to DO about it, AMERICA? B-Block (40:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: We have a new member of the WPITW Hall of Fame, Linda McMahon. We dedicate this episode to Stephen A. Smith, still making a fool of himself. And then the nominees: Bill Maher makes a propaganda video for Trump saying all the nice things about Trump that Maher has forgotten he already said about them in 2016 and then repudiated. Trump butt dials the wrong McMaster. And Jeanine Pirro may be the dumbest person to ever work at Fox News. Do you know what an accomplishment this would be? C-Block (1:04:05) GOOD NIGHT AND GOOD LUCK: A quick announcement about the immediate future of this podcast. Sounds more ominous than it is.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What are the economic and geopolitical effects of President Trump's imposition of tariffs on America's trading friends and foes? In an episode devoted solely to viewers' questions, Hoover senior fellows Sir Niall Ferguson, John Cochrane, and Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster delve into the certain volatility (and uncertain logic) of Trump's tariff maneuvers, what the future holds for the European Union, institutional decline within the U.S., plus what if any parallels between historical periods past and present (do all roads lead to Rome or Richard Nixon?). Also discussed: the uniqueness of a hybrid American republic/empire, "sleeper" nations that might emerge as powerhouses by 2050, and recommended biographies for secondary-school readers. Finally, as this month marks GoodFellows' fifth anniversary, the three fellows reflect on what they've learned over the course of gathering online and in-person for 150-plus shows.       Recorded on April 10, 2025.  

Join Mr. Bilal Bilici, a member of the Grand National Assembly of Türkiye, and Hoover Senior Fellow H.R. McMaster as they discuss Türkiye's evolving role on the global stage, its central role in the volatile Black Sea and Middle East regions, and its future in NATO. In light of the recent arrest of Istanbul mayor and presidential candidate Ekrem İmamoğlu in March 2025, Mr. Bilici reflects on the state of Turkish politics today, the country's prospects for democracy, US-Türkiye relations and the most pressing issues both countries should align on, his take on Syria following the collapse of Assad, and the future of the tumultuous Turkish-Israeli relationship. ABOUT THE SPEAKERS Bilal Bilici is a member of the Grand National Assembly of Türkiye representing the province of Adana and a former member of the Foreign Policy Committee. Mr. Bilici began his political career in the Good Party, serving as an advisor to the Party Chair. He was the Good Party's representative to the United States before transitioning to the main opposition, the Republican People's Party (CHP), in 2024. In addition to his political career, Bilici has been influential in Turkish business. He has held leadership roles in the Foreign Economic Relations Board of Türkiye, including as Vice President of the Türkiye-Central American and Caribbean Business Council, and has served as Honorary Consul of Guatemala in Istanbul. Mr. Bilici earned an undergraduate degree in economics from Boston University and a master's degree in global affairs from Bahçeşehir University. H.R. McMaster is the Fouad and Michelle Ajami Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University. He is also the Bernard and Susan Liautaud Fellow at the Freeman Spogli Institute and lecturer at Stanford University's Graduate School of Business. He was the 25th assistant to the president for National Security Affairs.

Guest: Zac Bookman, CEO and Co-Founder of OpenGovThirteen years after co-founding the government transparency startup OpenGov, Zac Bookman is still finding ways to surprise people. In 2023, Cox Enterprises bought the company for $1.8 billion — but as far as Zac is concerned, “we're just getting started.”“ I left the vast majority of my net worth in the company,” he says. “So I'm a believer. I'm all in.”The mission of powering “more effective and accountable government” has been stable since OpenGov's earliest days, and that mission has informed everything from hiring to M&A to the decision to sell. “These people buy and don't sell,” Zac said of Cox. “They're all in on the mission. And they're all in on taking care of employees. So I see a triple win: A win for employees, win for the investors, win for the customers, maybe a quadruple win for me and the management.”Chapters:(01:46) - OpenGov's mission (04:34) - Shrinking the product-market fit (07:34) - Super misson driven (08:59) - Why OpenGov almost shut down (13:08) - Zac's early career (16:16) - Picking (and losing) a CTO (22:50) - Growing upside-down (25:29) - The SPAC backstabber (31:26) - Why Zac didn't get fired (33:24) - Selling in 2024 (37:04) - Growth by acquisition (42:31) - John Chambers and PMF (49:32) - Zac's cross-country bike ride (56:25) - Expectations vs. reality (58:57) - The coup attempt (01:01:59) - Tiring work (01:05:47) - Going to the White House (01:09:40) - DOGE & disrespect (01:12:54) - “We're just getting started” (01:14:18) - Who OpenGov is hiring (and where) (01:15:13) - What “grit” means to Zac Mentioned in this episode: Joe Lonsdale, Cox Enterprises, OpenAI, the Department of Government Efficiency, Workday, H.R.

Curtailing strife and safeguarding America's global standing requires military strength, diplomatic reach, a gravitational pull to the concepts of liberty and opportunity, and a strategy for economic growth beyond America's shores. Andrew Grotto, a Hoover visiting fellow and veteran of two past White House national security teams, discusses the white paper he co-authored with Hoover's H.R. McMaster on the need for a more structured and coordinated approach to US foreign policy, as well as how “economic statecraft” applies to settling the current wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, and how to win America's “great power competition” with China (which includes a global economic component missing from the last century's Cold War rivalry with the Soviet Union).  Recorded on March 18, 2025.
