On January 3, US operatives arrested Venezuelan Nicolas Maduro. Maduro's arrest is an event that has people talking, not just about the capture of one narcoterrorist, but about a fundamental shift in the way that the US goes about foreign policy. Here to talk us through that shift is Mike Gonzalez, a Senior Fellow for the Davis Institute for National Security and Foreign Policy, here at the Heritage Foundation.  ---Have questions, suggestions, or comments?

Tara unpacks a geopolitical story the mainstream media refuses to explain clearly. Sanctions against Iran, Russia, and their allies were supposed to choke off terror funding—but instead, loopholes, ignored enforcement, and political corruption turned Venezuela into an illegal oil way station for America's enemies. Now, with a Russian tanker, a shadowing submarine, and court-backed enforcement finally underway, the stakes couldn't be higher. This isn't chaos. It's strategy. And it may reshape global energy and power for decades.

From there, the discussion expands to Australia's China policy under Prime Minister Albanese, U.S.–Australia alliance dynamics, and the limits of appeasement.The conversation dives deep into the technology Cold War: export controls, semiconductors, AI, supply-chain dependence, Chinese overcapacity, and the role of Western capital in financing China's rise.

Rep. Rob Wittman on the Speed of Relevance in Modernizing America's Defense Industrial Base

In this episode recorded live from the 2025 Reagan National Defense Forum in Simi Valley, hosts Lauren Bedula and Hondo Geurts sit down with Congressman Rob Wittman, Vice Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee and Co-Chair of the Defense Modernization Caucus. Congressman Wittman shares his journey from reforming a Boy Scout troop in his small Virginia hometown to leading defense modernization efforts in Congress, driven by a passion for connecting good public policy to decision makers who can execute it. The conversation explores his call for Congress to thank people for taking risks and learning from failures, the critical workforce challenges facing shipbuilding, and why the overwhelming presence of non-traditional defense companies at the Reagan Forum signals a transformative shift in the defense industrial base. Wittman emphasizes that modernization must happen "at the speed of relevance," not incrementally, but with the urgency the strategic environment demands.Five Key Takeaways:Congress must thank people for taking risks, not punish failures: Wittman calls for Congress to "thank them for taking the risk" when acquisition officials present failures, then ask what they learned. Using SpaceX's Starship as an example, he argues that controlled failures accelerate progress, and Congress must stop punishing experimentation with a "process-centric mindset."The Navy's Constellation decision was a watershed moment: The Navy's willingness to reassess the Constellation-class frigate, where mission creep turned an 85% complete design into 15%, demonstrates self-assessment and course correction, the kind that should be celebrated even when acknowledging past errors.Shipbuilding faces unprecedented workforce challenges: With companies like Huntington Ingalls hiring 5,000 workers annually, shipyards must invest in quality of life improvements and expand skill sets beyond traditional trades to include software programming, robotics monitoring, and additive manufacturing.Non-traditionals are transforming the defense industrial base: The overwhelming presence of non-traditional companies, private equity firms, and venture capital at the Reagan Forum represents a fundamental shift. These players bring innovative approaches focused not just on platforms but on enabling the manufacturing process itself through software and data analytics.Modernization must happen at the speed of relevance: "We have to do these things, not just say, well, we'll think about it. We'll do a little bit. This has to be done at the speed of relevance." The strategic environment demands urgent transformation, not incremental approaches, across workforce development, manufacturing, and acquisition reform.

From Democratizing Finance to Powering Space: Baiju Bhatt's Patriotic Mission

In this episode recorded live from the 2025 Reagan National Defense Forum in Simi Valley, hosts Lauren Bedula and Hondo Geurts sit down with Baiju Bhatt, co-founder of Robinhood and founder and CEO of Aetherflux. Baiju shares his remarkable journey from the son of Indian immigrants, his mother arriving pregnant with two suitcases of pots and pans, to democratizing access to America's financial system with Robinhood, and now building an American power grid in space. The conversation explores why patriotism is back in vogue in Silicon Valley, how constraints breed creativity, and why he couldn't sit out the space race happening in his lifetime without regretting it "as a geezer." Baiju makes the case that America's fundamental advantage is entrepreneurship and capitalism, and that energy is emerging as one of the most critical problems the economy must solve, both on Earth and in low Earth orbit.Five Key Takeaways:America wins through capitalism: The United States' distinct advantage over competitors like China is entrepreneurship and capitalism, not bureaucratic central planning. As Baiju puts it, "we're not going to out centrally plan the Chinese...the times that the United States wins is when we bring to bear capitalism," which drives both rapid execution and diverse approaches to solving hard problems.Fear regret, not failure, and fail fast: Rather than being paralyzed by potential failure, Baiju advocates getting "failures out of the way quickly" and not waiting too long to pressure test ideas. The real risk isn't trying and failing, it's the regret of never trying at all, especially when historic opportunities like the commercialization of space are happening in your lifetime.Energy is the next critical infrastructure for space commerce: Aetherflux is building a power grid in low Earth orbit because energy access hasn't been this critical since World War II or the 1970s oil crisis. The vision is to take energy-hungry applications "above the grid," removing super high-power applications from Earth's strained energy infrastructure by powering them from space.Constraints breed creativity and humility breeds success: Despite his success with Robinhood, Baiju deliberately maintains the constraints and humility that got him there, recognizing that "what we're trying to do is extraordinarily difficult." Coming in with bravado isn't the recipe for success, being diligent, systematic, and constantly testing your assumption is.Silicon Valley's "group hug" with defense is transformative for America: The convergence of entrepreneurship, technology, and national security represents a fundamental shift where economic prosperity and national defense are no longer separate tracks. This alignment, driven by competition and recognition that key technologies from AI to space require both sectors working in concert is "hugely important for America."

Brent Johnson on Why National Security Will Override Free Market Resource Economics

This final episode of 2025 features Brent Johnson of Santiago Capital discussing the year's volatility and the structural global regime shift underway, operating at the intersection of capital flows and geopolitics. Johnson argues that President Trump has effectively dismantled the post-World War II rules-based order by unapologetically saying the U.S. is now acting solely for its own benefit, creating a "brave new world" for markets. A key misunderstanding among investors is the belief that the U.S. will inevitably lose its place in the world, yet Johnson maintains that the Western Hemisphere still provides the best relative opportunities for asset allocation. This shift is marked by the move toward centrally planned, state-sponsored markets, exemplified by the Department of War's Office of Strategic Capital (OSC), which acts as a 21st-century Manhattan Project to secure supply chains. The OSC facilitates this by using public-private partnerships to match government funds with private capital, thereby financing the re-shoring and remilitarization of strategic industries. This government focus on national security is expected to override environmental concerns, creating opportunities in North American natural resource sectors, like energy, earth minerals, gold, and silver, over the next decade or two. This episode of Mining Stock Daily is brought to you by... Revival Gold is one of the largest pure gold mine developer operating in the United States.
