Podcasts about National Counterterrorism Center

Megyn Kelly is joined by Joe Kent, former Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, to speak out for the first time about the reports he's being investigated by the FBI for leaking to the media during his time in the Trump administration, whether he leaked info about Mark Levin to Tucker Carlson, the allegation he leaked about Charlie Kirk to Candace Owens, and more. They also discuss what really happened behind-the-scenes in the Trump administration in the weeks leading up to the Iran war, the influence of neocons and foreign officials in Trump's decision-making, critiques about him speaking out against the president during a war, how VP JD Vance and DNI Tulsi Gabbard fit with Trump's current Iran policy, Kent's interactions with Vance, Gabbard, and Trump the night before his resignation letter, whether he was frozen out of meetings with President Trump and other top officials, why Kent believes there's much more to investigate related to the Charlie Kirk assassination, why the FBI could take the lead on the potential "transtifa" connection, whether foreign actors were involved in any way, what drew him to President Trump during the 2016 GOP primary, why his past foreign policy “moral clarity” on Iraq and Middle East was so appealing, Kent's lengthy military service, and more.   More from Kent - https://x.com/joekent16jan19   Done with Debt: https://www.DoneWithDebt.com & tell them Megyn Kelly sent you!

Today's conversation with Washington Monthly's Bill Scher was as a wide-ranging, candid conversation dissecting 2026 political flashpoints under Trump's second term.We discussed:— Sen. Rand Paul's feud with Sen. Markwayne Mullin during Mullin's contentious DHS Secretary confirmation hearing (where Paul grilled him over temperament, past insults), Mullin's stubbornness, cross-aisle likability (including Sen. John Fetterman's Democratic vote advancing the nomination), and why Paul's opposition likely fails due to Senate deference norms and lack of broader strategy.— Joe Kent's explosive resignation as National Counterterrorism Center director (accusing Israel/AIPAC of manipulating Trump into war), his Tucker Carlson interview hinting at conspiracies (including linking Charlie Kirk's assassination to pro-war forces), anti-Semitic trope risks amplified by Marco Rubio/Bibi Netanyahu statements, and blowback dangers.— Tulsi Gabbard's hypocrisy: As DNI, she dodges Sen. John Ossoff's direct “yes/no” on Iran's imminent nuclear threat (deferring to Trump), contradicting her past “No War with Iran” brand and refusing to resign despite evidence the intel didn't support imminence.— Midterm outlook: Matt's bullish take on Democrats' Senate chances in 2026, with prediction markets teetering ~50% and conventional wisdom shifting.— NATO resistance: Bill's Washington Monthly piece arguing Democrats should defy any Trump unilateral withdrawal attempt, treating it as invalid precedent to preserve alliance ties post-Trump.— And MUCH more!Subscribe to Matt Lewis on Substack: https://mattklewis.substack.com/Support Matt Lewis at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mattlewisFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MattLewisDCTwitter: https://twitter.com/mattklewisInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattlewisreels/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVhSMpjOzydlnxm5TDcYn0A– Who is Matt Lewis? –Matt K.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, there is no divide among MAGA supporters. President Trump has our unanimous support. But there are a small group of malcontent podcasters who appeal mainly to leftists who are trashing the country, Trump and the military while placing acolytes in the administration to undermine both Trump and U.S. military. Joe Kent is an alleged leaker and is wrong on Iran. He hasn't even been included in briefings for months due to suspected incessant leaking to the White House's concern. How can such a person hold his position of the Director of the National Counterterrorism Center if trusted officials fear he will leak sensitive information. Also, in breaking news, according to Semafor the FBI is investigating Kent for allegedly improperly sharing classified information as part of a leak probe that began months before his resignation. It now looks like he resigned to control the narrative, not because of the Iran war. Later, the ongoing military campaign has destroyed Iran's capacity to produce more ballistic missiles and is now targeting remaining launchers while hunting hidden nuclear material sites. After 47 years of Iran killing Americans directly and indirectly, allowing them to acquire a nuclear weapon would leave few options.   Learn more about your ad choices.

PLUS: Why is Donald Trump averse to listening to his experts when it comes to Iran?Social Circle city officials closed off and locked the newly-purchased DHS warehouse utility box - meaning "no water for ICE," and no access to sewer services, either. [RELATED: Quinnipiac poll: 64% want path to legal status for most undocumented immigrants] Georgia seems to be primed to move back to using hand-marked paper ballots ... by 2028. All this overhauling over one man who couldn't accept the result of one election and none of the others before, that same day, or since. Insane, but at least they're not racing to upend local and state elections' offices before November. Today I provided another reminder that the "Biden-flation" the right keeps pointing back to while shrugging off "affordability" concerns was sparked by a Trump-negotiated deal with OPEC to throttle back oil production for two years. Speaking of mis-applied credit/blame, conservative pols and pundits are breathlessly trying to blame the partial DHS shutdown on Democrats, impacting air travel throughout the country; but Democrats offered a carve-out to fund TSA and the other parts of DHS not named ICE or CBP .That being said, AFGE union leaders are noting the pain. The notable eight-year gap between Trump 1.0 ignoring his secretary of state - who told Congress Iran was 'fundamentally in compliance' with the JCPOA negotiated by President Obama and Iran - and Trump 2.0 ignoring his director of the National Counterterrorism Center has us where we are now: spending $1 billion a day in a war-like "excursion" with Iran that's also spiking oil and gas prices globally - while simultaenously making us less energy independent in shuttering coastal wind farms for no good reason. Also, while Trump boasts he knew the Strait of Hormuz would be choked off, he apparently never planned for it. If you haven't heard much about the plight of Rodney Taylor, my last two segments today will infuriate you. Arrested about fourteen months ago for a crime he'd been pardoned for more than fifteen YEARS ago, Taylor is set to be deported back to Liberia. He came here at age 2 with a medical visa to help his parents provide for him the opportunity overcome being a double amputee. Oh, the pardon? DHS simply chooses not to recognize it, plus he's a man of color so "off he goes!" While detained, he's literally dragging himself through excrement to get a shower (when he even can) and relying on other prisoners for food the days he can't get to the cafeteria to eat. It's disgusting.

Joe Kent – someone you've probably never heard of – made huge news on Tuesday. He was the director of the National Counterterrorism Center – until he posted a resignation letter on Twitter. In it, Kent wrote directly to President Trump: “I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.” This is the first major defection from the administration over the war – and it might not be the last. For more on Kent's letter and what it means for the MAGA Right, we spoke with Jonathan Lemire. He's a staff writer at The Atlantic and co-host of Morning Joe on MSNOW.And in headlines, the SAVE America Act is creating real problems for Senate Majority Leader John Thune, Chief Justice John Roberts speaks out against targeting judges, and FBI Director Kash Patel hosts his own version of a meet and greet at Quantico.Show Notes: Check out Jonathan's reporting – www.theatlantic.com/author/jonathan-lemire Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/y4y2e9jy What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Amid the ongoing Strait of Hormuz crisis, President Trump has voiced frustration with NATO allies for declining to provide naval or other support, repeatedly calling their position disappointing and suggesting it could damage the alliance long-term. He reiterated that the U.S. does not require their assistance in confronting Iran but questioned whether NATO would ever truly be there for America in a crisis. Such statements have kept the topic of a potential U.S. pullout alive in political discourse. With tensions rising, even low-probability bets on Polymarket reflect the uncertainty. This comes alongside the high-profile resignation of Joe Kent from his role leading the National Counterterrorism Center, where he protested the administration's decision to engage in the Iran war.

John brings you up to speed on the important news of the day, including the recent resignation of Joe Kent, the former director of the National Counterterrorism Center, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard's defense of President Trump's actions regarding Iran, the ongoing scrutiny of Attorney General Pam Bondi over the Epstein files, and the Senate's recent maneuvers concerning voter ID legislation.

Today's Headlines: The Iran war claimed a notable casualty on the home front: Joe Kent, director of the National Counterterrorism Center, resigned and posted his letter on Twitter, writing that Iran posed no imminent threat and the war was started due to pressure from Israel's lobby. He's no hero — Kent is a MAGA loyalist with his own troubling associations — but when someone who could defend virtually everything else this administration has done draws a line here, that says something about how broadly unpopular this war has become. Meanwhile, Israel killed two of Iran's most senior remaining officials overnight, including the secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, while continuing wide-scale strikes in Iran and southern Lebanon. Trump spent St. Patrick's Day in the Oval Office with Ireland's prime minister, alternating between insisting the U.S. doesn't need NATO's help and complaining it was "very unfair" that no one offered to send minesweepers. Cuba is now on the radar — Trump mused about "taking Cuba in some form" while his administration cut off the island's oil supply, triggering a nationwide blackout. He said he can do "anything he wants" with Cuba. Elsewhere in the circus: Trump appointed Erika Kirk — of Summer House — to the U.S. Air Force Academy's Board of Visitors, a formal congressional oversight body. In other news, Peter Thiel is in Rome giving private lectures warning about the Antichrist, and the Vatican is…not pleased. A former Kansas City pastor was suspended after it emerged she managed Epstein's private island in 2018-2019 and listed different employment on her resume. AG Pam Bondi was formally subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee to testify about her handling of the Epstein files, with an appearance ordered for April 14th. And finally, the SEC is floating a proposal to cut public company earnings reports from quarterly to twice a year — still TBD, but worth watching and preliminary Illinois primary results.  Resources/Articles mentioned in this episode: AP News: Top counterterrorism official Joe Kent resigns over Trump's Iran war NYT: Trump Appointee Pressed Analyst to Redo Intelligence on Venezuelan Gang The Independent: Trump rants US doesn't need any help in Iran war and ‘never did' AP News: Iran launches barrage of missiles after Israel kills 2 of its top officials CNN: Trump muses over ‘taking Cuba' as island's power grid collapses after weeks of US oil blockade Military: Erika Kirk And The Air Force Academy Board: What The Appointment Reveals About The Panel CNN: Peter Thiel's secret lectures on Antichrist in Rome spark debate FOX 4: Former KC-area pastor suspended after church learns she managed Epstein's private island AP News: Attorney General Pam Bondi subpoenaed to answer questions from Congress about the Epstein files WSJ: SEC Prepares Proposal to Eliminate Quarterly Reporting Requirement NBC: Illinois Senate Primary Election 2026 Live Results Subscribe to the Betches News Room and join the Morning Announcements group chat.

This time, John discusses Joe Kent who resigned as the head of the National Counterterrorism Center, which is part of Tulsi Gabbard's office. Kent cited the war with Iran as his reason for leaving. John also talks about the ongoing conflict in Iran, emphasizing the internal divisions within the Republican party and the implications for American foreign policy. He raises important questions about accountability and the potential consequences of military action, encouraging listeners to think critically about the narratives presented in the media. Then, he interviews Elizabeth Vartkessian who's been investigating the life histories of those facing the most severe penalties possible in the U.S. They talk about her new book "The Deserving: What the Lives of the Condemned Reveal About American Justice". Next, John speaks with Tony Box who served as a Judge Advocate General officer while being deployed to Iraq. His career experience includes working as an investigator with the Congressional Commission on Wartime Contracting, for the Department of Defense, as a special agent and member of the SWAT team with the FBI, as an assistant U.S. Attorney, and in private practice. Having operated in both military and federal law enforcement leadership roles for decades, Tony brings a unique perspective on whether we're heading down a familiar and risky path. And finally, John jokes with comedian Keith Price and they talk listeners off the edge and calm their fears about voting, gas prices, and the War in Iran.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Joe Kent's claims about Iran's missile threat don't line up with the facts. In this episode, we break down his past warnings, his leaks, and the reality of Iran's missile strikes across the Middle East.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Iran Optimism Clay and Buck argue that Democrats are struggling to oppose a mission widely seen as successful, particularly as oil markets stabilize and fears of global escalation fade. They also address speculation within a small subset of Trump supporters suggesting foreign influence over U.S. strategy, strongly rejecting the idea that Trump acts under pressure from any other nation. Buck shares insider perspective from his CIA Counterterrorism Center background, responding to the resignation of Joe Kent from the National Counterterrorism Center and offering blunt criticism of NCTC’s role within the intelligence community. The hosts emphasize Trump’s independence and his decades-long public record advocating a tougher stance toward the Iranian regime. Midway through the hour, the discussion turns to Cuba, where a nationwide blackout has plunged the island into darkness following the U.S. cutoff of Venezuelan oil shipments. Clay and Buck highlight how Cuba’s collapse, combined with Venezuela’s political shift and Iran’s military devastation, represents a historic weakening of three long-standing U.S. adversaries—an alignment the hosts compare to the geopolitical shift following the fall of the Berlin Wall. They also speculate on the enormous economic potential of a post-Communist Cuba, from tourism to restored American property claims. Saint Patrick's Day Clay and Buck celebrate St. Patrick’s Day while diving into major global stories unfolding in real time. The hour opens with a lively debate about parades, bagpipes, Irish heritage, and the quirks of genealogy—including a humorous exchange about green eyes, red hair, and whether those traits are uniquely Celtic. From ancestry talk to the Irish president’s St. Patrick’s Day message promoting globalism and mass migration, the hosts critique Ireland’s political direction and draw parallels to broader Western demographic decline, using Ireland’s dropping fertility rate as an example of why European governments have turned to large‑scale immigration. Iran Prosperity Project An interview featuring Shervin Pishevar, advisor to the Iran Prosperity Project, who outlines what he calls a “historic moment” inside Iran as citizens cheer U.S. drone strikes targeting the Basij militia. He describes Iranians celebrating the “precision liberation campaign,” blasting drone sounds from speakers to intimidate regime forces and secretly reporting Basij locations to help accelerate the fall of the Islamic Republic. Pishevar frames the ongoing conflict as the world’s first AI‑powered war, warning that if rogue states like Iran, Russia, or China gain access to similar autonomous drone or biotechnological capabilities, global security could be endangered. The discussion turns toward the Iranian people’s desire for democracy, the economic devastation inflicted by 47 years of theocratic rule, and the Iran Prosperity Project’s detailed 100‑day plan for a national referendum once the regime collapses. Pishevar argues that a free Iran could unlock more than a trillion dollars in trade with the United States and spark an economic boom comparable to Europe after World War II. He also emphasizes the critical role of Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi and the Iranian diaspora who view this moment as a turning point after decades of oppression. Clay and Buck press Pishevar on regional dynamics—including how the rapid modernization of Gulf nations like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE stands in sharp contrast to Iran’s economic decay—and on what percentage of Iranians support regime overthrow. Pishevar asserts that the vast majority oppose the government and view the Trump‑led military campaign as liberation rather than intervention. He praises the killing of figures like Larijani and other top operatives of the IRGC, calling it a decisive blow against what he describes as a “mafia state.” Meet the Other Clay Shifting back to U.S. politics, Clay and Buck welcome Lieutenant Colonel Clay Fuller, Republican nominee for Georgia’s 14th congressional district—the seat formerly held by Marjorie Taylor Greene. Fuller discusses the April 7th special election, warns of Democrats attempting to quietly slip into power during low‑turnout contests, and stresses the urgency of voter mobilization in a district central to the national battle for control of Congress. He outlines his strong support for President Trump’s Iran strategy, his belief in deterring Iran’s military capabilities, and the importance of Georgia’s upcoming primary and general elections, where Senate and gubernatorial races will also dominate national attention.

On this episode of the Mike Force Podcast, I break down Joe Kent's resignation as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center and his statement that Iran is not an imminent threat. We get into President Trump's reaction, what this means from a national security perspective, and the bigger question a lot of Americans are asking right now: does America First actually mean putting America's interests first, or are we being pulled into conflicts that serve someone else's agenda? I unpack the politics, the policy, and the implications.

The nation’s top counterterrorism official resigned Tuesday in protest of the U.S. war against Iran, saying Tehran posed no imminent threat. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We had Friday the 13th, Pi Day, the Ides of March, and hardly a day has passed, and there's yet another holiday! David Waldman observes most holidays, and is generally an observant guy, which is why he is a good fit for this show. There aren't many valid reasons to ask Donald K. Trump about anything. He doesn't know the answer. His answer won't make sense. His answer won't be the same the next time he's asked. Any correlation between his answer and reality will always be coincidental. And paying the slightest attention to him only encourages him, so why bother? Because, a lot of invalid journalists would lose their jobs, that's why. Laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz would be militarily advantageous for Iran, so that is what they are doing. The US strategy, therefore, was to reposition their minesweepers from the Middle East over to Malaysia. An untimely move perhaps, but nothing that can't be fixed with untested technology and a lot of money. The head of the U.S. National Counterterrorism Center resigned because he couldn't support the war in Iran… if only he shut up there. Donald is no longer his pal. It is no fun for MAGA to come up with pedophile conspiracies now that they're hitting a little too close to home, so how about the theory that the Trump Butler assassination attempt was faked? Big (and funny) if true! Today's sociopaths won't admit the error of their ways until the liberation tanks roll into their neighborhood. Senior KITM Military Correspondent Darwin Darko returns! The Department of Whatever accuses Stars and Stripes of wokeness, such as publishing basketball scores, comic strips, or the news.

Jeff & Shannon expose Trump's ironclad demand for the SAVE America Act plus Merkel's blatant migrant vote bloc against AfD, while dissecting Joe Kent's Iran resignation, St. Patrick's Day bloodlines talk, and NATO freeloading. High-energy truth-seeking on Rumble, YouTube, X and Red State Talk Radio—tune in now! Buckle up, patriots—@intheMatrixxx and @shadygrooove storm into Season 8, Episode 49, “TRUMP DEMANDS SAVE AMERICA ACT; Merkel Weaponizes Migrants vs AfD” with relentless America-First analysis, cutting through the globalist fog on both sides of the Atlantic and beyond. President Trump is hammering the Senate to pass the SAVE America Act immediately—no watered-down version—demanding strict voter ID, proof of citizenship to register, an end to widespread mail-in voting fraud, plus bans on men in women's sports and transgender procedures for minors, declaring he won't sign other bills until it's done and warning it will “guarantee the midterms” for real Americans. Meanwhile, Angela Merkel is openly urging “people with a migration background” to form a voting bloc and stand together against the surging AfD, the party fighting for mass deportations and Germany First—validating the long-predicted playbook of importing permanent left-wing voters to reshape nations. Jeff and Shannon deliver sharp, documented breakdowns: Trump's St. Patrick's Day Oval Office meeting with Irish Taoiseach Micheál Martin highlighting 23 U.S. presidents with Irish bloodlines and questioning Obama-era cash pallets flown to Iran; Joe Kent's sudden resignation from National Counterterrorism Center claiming no Iranian threat despite his own history, met with Caroline Leavitt's firm rebuttal citing compelling evidence of first-strike plans, ballistic missiles, and nuclear ambitions; Trump's strategic precision in Iran operations that wiped out regime military assets while preserving civilian infrastructure and oil facilities for the Iranian people's future; and the embarrassing NATO allies who cheered from the sidelines but refused real support like minesweepers or carriers after years of U.S. trillions spent. They also spotlight patterns around certain media and “dissident” figures pushing coordinated narratives that crumble under scrutiny. The truth is learned, never told.

AP Washington correspondent Sagar Meghani reports on the National Counterterrorism Center's director resigning over the Iran war.

In this breaking news episode of The Alan Sanders Show, we dive into the bombshell resignation of Joe Kent, Director of the National Counter-Terrorism Center, who stepped down citing no imminent threat from Iran and criticizing the Trump administration's war as unjustified pressure from Israel and its lobby. We cover investigative journalist Nick Shirley's latest scoop exposing massive fraud in California. Plus, the surprising twist: leftists and some Democrats are embracing Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (MTG) for her anti-war stands and breaks with GOP orthodoxy. Plus a closing comment on trying to deliver a show for multiple generations.

The Director of the National Counterterrorism Center steps down over opposition to the attacks on Iran; libraries are shaking off politics and leaning into community support; climate change is taking a backseat in media coverage; and Ohio groups work to prevent young men from being pulled into the 'manosphere.'

Nicolle Wallace covers everything that has transpired a week after Donald Trump waged war with Iran. 8 U.S. service members have died, the White House did not rule out a draft, the Wall Street Journal says we are facing the worst energy crisis since the 1970s, and the Iranian regime has named Khamenei's son, Mojtaba Khamenei, as the new Ayatollah. Amid all the chaos, Trump told a CBS reporter today that the war is Iran “is very complete.” Later, Nicolle covers reporting from the Daily Mail that suggests that the White House is blocking the publication of a report by the FBI, Homeland Security, and the National Counterterrorism Center which warns local law enforcement across the U.S. of the potential of terrorist attacks due to the war in Iran.

1. National Security Concerns We open with alarming claims that 18,000 known or suspected terrorists have entered the U.S. during the Biden administration, allegedly due to lax border security. The source cited is testimony from Joe Kent, Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, during a House Homeland Security Committee hearing. Specific examples include Afghan nationals linked to terrorist organizations who entered under the Operation Allies Welcome program. The conversation emphasizes the risks posed by "got-aways" (migrants who evade border patrol) and criticizes the administration for prioritizing politics over security. 2. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and U.S. Leadership The second segment focuses on President Trump’s executive order aimed at centralizing AI regulation to prevent fragmented state-level rules. Senator Cruz frames AI as the “economic battle of the 21st century”, comparing it to the U.S. winning the internet race in the 1990s. Whoever leads in AI will shape global values—either American principles of liberty or China’s model of surveillance and control. Trump’s remarks highlight the need for a single federal approval system to accelerate AI development and maintain U.S. dominance. 3. Designating the Muslim Brotherhood as a Terrorist Organization Senator Cruz advocates for legislation to designate the Muslim Brotherhood and its affiliates as terrorist organizations. He explains a shift from a top-down approach (targeting the global organization) to a bottom-up strategy (starting with affiliates like Hamas). The discussion notes bipartisan support but criticizes the House for weakening the bill. Cruz stresses that allies such as Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE have already designated the group as a terrorist organization. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Today's episode starts with a little studio chaos

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is expected to face fierce questioning from House Democrats on Dec. 11 over the Trump administration's immigration policies.Noem is testifying before the House Homeland Security Committee on “Worldwide Threats to the Homeland,” which is likely to focus heavily on immigration. Also attending Thursday's hearing are Joseph Kent, the director of the National Counterterrorism Center, and Michael Glasheen, operations director of the national security branch of the FBI.The Senate is poised for a Dec. 11 vote on competing measures to resolve the standoff over extending the expiring Obamacare subsidies. Both are likely to fall along party lines and to fail to reach the 60-vote threshold required to advance legislation in the Senate. The subsidies were created in 2021 as a temporary measure to blunt the economic impact of the COVID-19 national health emergency. Originally offered for two years, the enhanced subsidies were further extended for three years and will expire at the end of this month.

In this episode, Laura and Kevin chat with Walter Haydock, whose path from Marine intelligence to Capitol Hill to AI governance gives him a rare view of what “security” actually means in the age of AI and generative models. Walter talks about why he thinks governance is becoming the next real defense layer, and how to sort actual AI risks from the odd glitches everyone loves to talk about. He breaks down common myths he hears from non-tech folks, what recent cloud outages say about the shortcuts companies take, and whether the latest hospital ransomware attacks signal a true AI-driven threat wave or just better marketing from bad actors. We also get into the personal side: what feels high-stakes after years in national security, and which unexpected habits from that world turned out to be useful in tech. Walter closes by looking ahead at what might trigger the first serious AI crackdown in the U.S. and whether a federal AI law is finally on the horizon. It's a grounded, candid look at where the field is headed from someone who's seen the stakes up close.Walter Haydock is the Founder and CEO of StackAware, where he helps AI-driven companies handle cybersecurity, privacy, and compliance risk. He's one of the leading voices on ISO 42001 and has guided organizations through the audit process as AI governance becomes a core part of security. Before building StackAware, Walter worked in national security as a staff member on the House Homeland Security Committee, an analyst at the National Counterterrorism Center, and a Marine Corps intelligence officer.

Today's episode delivers urgent insight into alleged national security risks tied to mass immigration and vetting breakdowns.

The National Counter-Terrorism Center is warning that al-Qaeda is threatening to assassinate our leaders, attack corporations and cause mass casualty events in the United States.  If you haven't heard such alarms, you're not alone. When the country's political elite and media is focused elsewhere – notably obsessing about Jeffrey Epstein's crimes and files documenting them, disseminating information that may help save Americans' lives just doesn't get the focused national effort it urgently requires.    Unfortunately, evidence that jihadists are emboldened to think they can strike us with impunity also conflicts with preferred official narratives. These include: Iran is no longer at war; Hamas is out of business; a Syrian terrorist deserves our support; and Qatar and Turkey are reliable U.S. allies, not prime enablers of toxic sharia-supremacism.  To defend against jihad, Americans must be equipped to help, starting with knowing the truth.   This is Frank Gaffney.

In this Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, we cover Charlie Kirk's memorial service and its powerful messages of faith and forgiveness, Trump's crackdown on Harvard and Berkeley, fresh threats from al Qaeda inside the U.S., Trump's push to retake Bagram air base, TikTok's murky new ownership deal, Argentina's fight against socialism, and what's ahead this week on the Wright Report. Quick hits to launch your week with the facts shaping America and the world.   Charlie Kirk Memorial in Arizona: Erika Kirk vowed, “No one will ever forget my husband's name — and I will make sure of it.” She forgave the assassin, telling the crowd, “That man… I forgive him.” Trump honored Kirk as a man of grace but joked, “Charlie did not hate his opponents. That's where I disagreed with Charlie. I hate my opponents, and I don't want the best for them.”   Trump Hits Harvard and Berkeley: The White House placed Harvard on a federal watchlist restricting access to $550 million in funds, citing civil rights violations and leftist violence. UC Berkeley handed over names of 160 students and staff after pressure to expose antisemitic and radical faculty. Bryan says this is Trump waging the fight “where it belongs — in their pocketbooks.”   Al Qaeda Plot Inside the U.S.: The National Counterterrorism Center warns AQ operatives from Yemen are in multiple American cities. Rumors suggest they may pose as police or medics during future attacks. Bryan urges vigilance: “While we may be done with Radical Islam — it is not done with us.”   Trump Demands Afghanistan Return Bagram Air Base: The president warned the Taliban, “Bad things are going to happen” if the U.S. is not given control of the base, citing the need to monitor China's nearby nuclear sites. Kabul insists “not one inch” will be ceded.   TikTok's U.S. Ownership Deal: Fox's Murdoch, Oracle's Larry Ellison, and Dell's Michael Dell will sit on TikTok's new U.S. board, with one seat reserved for a Chinese official. Trump insists user data will be controlled on U.S. soil, but skeptics warn Xi will not give up his propaganda tool without concessions.   Argentina's Milei Meets Trump: With inflation down from 250 percent to 34 percent, Milei still faces socialist backlash at home. Trump may use the U.S. Exchange Stabilization Fund to provide a financial lifeline. Bryan warns, “Never underestimate a death cult. Marxists don't get tired of fighting.”   Looking Ahead This Week: Trump promises revelations about autism and Tylenol, a bailout for struggling farmers and truckers, and big updates on immigration, Biden's mental decline, and global conflicts from Gaza to the Pacific.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Charlie Kirk memorial Erika Kirk forgiveness, Trump joke Charlie Kirk opponents, Harvard federal funds restriction, UC Berkeley antisemitic faculty names, al Qaeda AQAP U.S. cities plot, Trump Bagram air base Taliban threat, TikTok U.S. ownership Murdochs Ellison Dell, Xi Jinping propaganda TikTok, Argentina Milei Trump Exchange Stabilization Fund, Trump autism Tylenol link, U.S. farmers truckers tariff bailout, Biden mental decline cognition
