âRight when TikTok was negotiating a national security agreement with U.S. officials, a Beijing-based team surveilled the location of journalists whoâve been writing negative stories about TikTok. And the evidence at this point of their real national security threat is very clear.â
Brendan Carr serves as the senior Republican commissioner on the Federal Communications Commission. He has testified before Congress about the unique national security threat to America posed by the video-hosting service TikTok.
âAny entity that is inside of China, particularly if theyâre a CCP [Chinese Communist Party] member, is compelled by a national security law in China to do the bidding of the CCP surveillance apparatusâand to keep it secret,â says Mr. Carr.
He argues that new legislation in the House of Representatives would force the decoupling of TikTok from its Chinese parent.
â[Americans] have a right to exchange information on that platform. But there is no constitutional protection that requires the government to let a national security threat like TikTok persist,â says Mr. Carr.

âI was drinking alcohol, I was smoking cigarettes, I was snorting cocaine, I was snorting crystal meth, and I was freebasingâall in the same day. And I was a complete wreck,â says Joe Polish.
A former addict turned successful entrepreneur, Mr. Polish is the founder of Genius Recovery, a nonprofit thatâs trying to change how society approaches addiction, and Genius Network, a network of high-achieving entrepreneurs.
In this episode, we explore whatâs broken in our society, whatâs fueling the opioid crisis that is killing 100,000 Americans a year, and how to rebuild connection, community, and purpose.
âDonât ask the question âwhy the addiction?ââ he says. Instead ask: why the pain?
All addiction is a response to trauma, Mr. Polish says, and thatâs where the focus of recovery should be.

âWeâre up to over 1.6 million reports in VAERS in the context of these products ... The numbers keep going up,â says Jessica Rose, an immunologist and independent researcher.
She recently co-wrote a paper examining the data surrounding the COVID-19 vaccine adverse events. It was the first published paper to call for a global moratorium on the COVID-19 genetic vaccines.
But a few weeks later, the journal Cureus decided to retract the paper.

âWe decided to change this paradigm from one day to another, and in one month, we have cut our budget in 5 percent of the GDP. Itâs historical ... The President declared that Argentina was in zero deficit.â
In this episode, I sit down with Argentinaâs Minister of Security, Patricia Bullrich. We dive into the radical changes her country has experienced since Javier Milei was elected President.
âWe are deregulating the economy. We are simplifying the economy. We are going to do a huge process of privatization,â says Minister Bullrich. âWe have a very huge state. We have to work to have less state, and more private business. That is very important for Argentina.â
What are the principles that the new government is operating on? What economic and security policies are being implemented? And what are the biggest threats currently facing the Argentine Republic?
âOur biggest issue is the new networksâthe linking of criminal organizations with rogue states [such] as Iran, or criminal and terrorist organizations [such] as Hezbollah,â says Minister Bullrich. âHezbollahâthey are businessmen or businesswomen that are there in the city. But they take criminals of Brazil, or Paraguay, or Argentina, and they pay them. So they do the work. They do smuggling, they do narcotrafficking ... and they send the money to Hezbollah in Lebanon.â

Dr. Robert Lufkin was once a self-described âproduct of the medical establishment,â with a fruitful career as a professor of medicine. Heâs published hundreds of scientific papers, and has received millions of dollars in government funding.
But when, out of the blue, he was diagnosed with four seemingly unrelated chronic diseasesâand told that he was going to have to be on medication for lifeâhe started looking elsewhere for answers.
âIt was through lifestyle changes that I was able to reverse these very serious and potentially fatal diseases, and get off all medications for them,â Dr. Lufkin says.
Today, Dr. Lufkin educates people far and wide on how to take charge of their metabolic health, and is in the process of building new healthcare institutions, including a managed care organization and an undergraduate medical school.
He is the author of, âLies I Taught in Medical School: And the Truths That Can Save Your Life.â
âThe growth in these diseases is unprecedented in our history, and theyâre frankly not sustainable. Half the adult population is hypertensive, the growth rate in type 2 diabetes is going to approach 50 percent of the population soon. When that happens, all these chronic diseases are going to explode. And it doesnât have to be that way, because this disease is reversible with, in most cases, lifestyle,â says Dr. Lufkin.

âCurrently, the government spends 45 percent of GDP in Britain. You know, that is a pretty astonishing figure. Itâs 36 percent in the United States, so youâre not that far behind. But in Britain, itâs 45 percent, and I donât think that represents a proper free market economy.â
In this episode, I sit down with Liz Truss, former prime minister of the United Kingdom. We dive into the reality of mass immigration and net-zero climate policy in Britain and discuss how parliamentary powers are being supplanted by unelected bureaucracies.
âEven though we left the European Union, most of the European laws are still on our statute books. So, itâs a bit like getting divorced and still living in the same house as your ex-husband,â says Ms. Truss. âWeâve reduced carbon emissions, but thatâs because weâre importing more goods from countries like China, who are building coal-fired power stations. So, thereâs no net benefit to the planet. All thatâs happened is we have empowered our enemies, and weâve damaged our own industry.â
We also talk about the anti-Israel protests sweeping Britain, and Islamist threats targeting members of Parliament.
âThereâs clearly a basis of self-loathing. The people who are on the streets chanting in favor of Hamas or saying âcapitalism is evilââthey donât like Britain. They donât like the British way of life. They donât like our values,â she said. âA lot of conservatives just think this is a normal political fight. Itâs not a normal political fight. This is an enemy within our own country.â

In the pending $95 billion security aid bill, most of America has been focusing on U.S. aid to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. But few noticed that key funds for another region were removedâan action that could give communist China control of much of the Pacific.
Grant Newsham is an expert on Asia-Pacific, a senior fellow with the Center for Security Policy, and author of âWhen China Attacks.â

âSo, you had this left-wing, pro-communist and left-wing, anti-communist sections in our intelligence services. And then when the OSS was abolished, many went into the State Department. And they shaped the policies that weâre living with today.â
In this episode, I sit down with Michael Waller, senior analyst for strategy at the Center for Security Policy and the author of âBig Intel: How the CIA and FBI Went from Cold War Heroes to Deep State Villains.â
âThere was a breaking point in the FBI and the CIA where they stopped serving American interests,â says Mr. Waller. âIt ceases to serve the American interest if they view themselves as states within a state.â
We dive into how the Soviet Union influenced our intelligence and security agencies, and how President Barack Obama fundamentally altered their agendas.
âTheyâre making our own FBI agents and CIA officers what they call âagents of change,â to change our culture. This is not legal. This is not what the intelligence community is for,â says Mr. Waller.
He also reflects on Tucker Carlsonâs recent interview with Vladimir Putin.
âI think any journalist should go meet any foreign leader and get whatever information or disinformation he can out of him. As long as he knows itâs all an orchestrated setup on the other side,â says Mr. Waller.

âIt looks very legitimate when the President speaks, yes, but I donât believe a word when a KGB man speaks ... This was a propaganda message for [the] American public first.â
Anti Poolamets is an Estonian historian and a prominent member of the Conservative Peopleâs Party. He is an outspoken supporter of Donald Trumpâs policies concerning Europe, and an equally fierce critic of Vladimir Putinâs expansionist ambitions and his invasion of Ukraine.
âTrump was a man with [a] backbone and [the] biggest supporter of Ukraine,â says Mr. Poolamets. âTrump was [the] first who gave lethal weapons to Ukraine.â
In this episode, Mr. Poolamets and I discuss Tucker Carlsonâs recent interview with Vladimir Putin, whether the Russian presidentâs version of history stands up to scrutiny, and how the European Green Deal and the World Health Organizationâs International Health Regulations are threatening the global economy and state sovereignty.
âWe canât give away our sovereignty, and the EU is becoming more and more federal. [The] Green Deal is simply destroying European economies, and this is like the Soviet Four-Year Plan,â says Mr. Poolamets.

âThere are peopleâa non-trivial number of peopleâwho teach in the academy, many of whom have tenure, who have obtained their credentials fraudulently. They have lied, they have cheated on their PhD, and that is an extraordinarily serious problem on multiple levels.â
As professor of philosophy at Portland State University, Peter Boghossian was known for challenging orthodoxies. Today, he uses his distinct âStreet Epistemologyâ method to teach communication and critical thinking.
âThere is something about giving people the tools to ask really good questions. But not only are we not giving them the tools so they donât have the questions, but theyâre force-fed one answer, and particularly to moral questions. And the consequence of that is it becomes an ideology mill, where the goal is to replicate the dominant ideologyâwhatever is morally fashionable,â says Professor Boghossian.
He is known for his role in the Grievance Studies Affair, where he co-authored a series of intentionally fraudulent papers that were published in well-known academic journals, exposing the corruption of scholarship in a number of disciplines belonging to the humanities.
âMy guess to you is, youâre looking at 7-to-9 percent of dissertations in the humanities that are plagiarized. If Iâm wrong, itâs not because there are fewer, itâs because there are far, far more,â says Professor Boghossian. âWe have endemic corruption in our academic institutions. The only other question is what to do about it?â

At a time when much of the performing arts seem to be on the decline, one company has experienced a meteoric rise.
In less than two decades, Shen Yun Performing Arts has grown from one to eight companies touring the globe simultaneouslyâeach with its own live orchestra. Shen Yun now travels to 200 cities and performs in front of over one million audience members each year.
These artists are driving a restoration of authentic Chinese cultureâyet they are banned in China.
In this special episode of American Thought Leaders, we get an exclusive, inside look at the worldâs premier classical Chinese dance companyâthrough the eyes of its artists.
How has Shen Yun achieved its remarkable success? What is the secret to its approach?
And why does the Chinese regime feel threatened by their performances?

Brothers Josh and Nick Alexander are evangelical Christians who have become known in Canada for taking vocal stances against COVID-era mandates and gender ideology in schools.
They were highly active in Canadaâs Freedom Convoy and the Million March for Children, a walk-out protest against gender ideology. Theyâve been arrested multiple times and faced major backlash for their activism.
Josh Alexander was suspended and ultimately banned from physically attending his Catholic high school after protesting against transgender individuals using the bathroom of their choice and saying that there are only two genders.

For years now, weâve heard rumblings about COVID-19 vaccine shedding. Unvaccinated women talk of menstrual abnormalities after coming into close contact with vaccinated individuals. Some recently vaccinated mothers report babies experiencing bad reactions after breastfeeding. So what is this phenomenon? Is it real? And if so, what kinds of people are most affected?
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Pierre Kory, co-founder of the FLCCC Alliance and former chief of the Critical Care Service at the University of Wisconsin.
He has been researching COVID-19 vaccine shedding, and heâs written a nine-part series on his Substack of what heâs uncovered thus far.
Note: mRNA genetic vaccine contamination in breastmilk was first identified by War Room/DailyClout volunteers searching through primary source Pfizer documents released under court order by the U.S. FDA.

âWhen Obamacare happened, what it did was really give more power to the insurance companies and middlemen. I saw a lot of some of the smartest doctors in my group basically retire early, leave, or go into health tech. There are people that have gone into different areas in terms of autonomy, creativity, increasing their wages, but the actual clinical practice of medicine continues to have been marginalized.â
Dr. Carrie Mendoza is an emergency medicine physician and an advocate for the depoliticization of health care and education.
âThe detransitioners ⊠There arenât services for them ⊠Thereâs not even a billing code. If you donât have a billing code, you canât be in the insurance stream, right? So, youâre kind of like a non-existent person in the medical world. But yet, these are young kids whoâve had surgeries, or some now need hormone replacement because theyâve had their ovaries removed,â says Dr. Mendoza.
For years, Mendoza has been tracking the transformation of clinical medicine and the doctor-patient relationship.
âItâs written into regulations that the hospital wouldnât get paid if their scores werenât at a certain number. And so, then the pressure rolls downhill,â she says.
In this episode, we dive into the impact of the administrative state on medicine and health care, and reflect on the opioid crisis and its similarities to the social contagion of transgenderism sweeping the youth today.
âThe detransitioners are like the people that overdosed and were harmed by the opioids,â says Dr. Mendoza.

âIf you canât stand up for a human being that you respect, and love, and appreciate, and if you canât stand up for a principle that you believe in, if you canât stand up when somebodyâs doing something that isnât rightâthen who are you?â
Katherine Brodsky was at the peak of her journalistic career, writing about technology, film, and culture for publications such as Variety and The Washington Post, when she fell victim to the cancel culture mob.
âPeople were sending me threats. They were trying to reach out to my employers, or past employers, to make sure I was unhireable ⊠People were attempting to dox me. So it just really spiraled beyond anything Iâve ever experienced,â says Ms. Brodsky.
In this episode, we dive into her new book, âNo Apologies: How to Find and Free Your Voice in the Age of Outrage,â and discuss her views, as a Canadian, on the recent federal court ruling against Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
âIâve been a liberal voter. So, Iâm the Trudeau target demographic, although I wasnât a huge fan. And Iâve even voted left of that, at a certain point. But the idea that you can just ignore a huge segment of your population and just paint them as evil and racist, and labels that didnât even make sense that he gave them, it was very terrifying to see. And I went from not maybe liking him very muchâbecause he was very virtue-signally, and I donât think he was particularly smartâto really actively being afraid that he had this authoritarian streak,â says Ms. Brodsky.

In recent years, drug cartels have built a vast and lucrative business selling fake prescription drugs laced with fentanylâwhich drives addiction faster than any other synthetic narcotic, says Michael Brown, who was a special agent for the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) for over three decades.
The majority of people dying from fentanyl-related overdoses now are taking what they think is a fairly innocuous prescription drug like Xanax, and they have no idea that itâs been laced with fentanyl, he says.
The DEA says seven out of ten pills seized by the organization contain a deadly dose of fentanyl.
âYou take that wrong pill for the first time, and your life is over,â Mr. Brown says.
Now heâs global director for counter-narcotics technology at Rigaku Analytical Devices, which produces equipment that can identify narcotic substances.
âIn the 60s and 70s, drug dealers were concerned about killing their clients, because they didnât want to kill their clients. But the client base today is so vast and diverse that they can lose 100,000 and still make hundreds of millions of dollars,â Mr. Brown says.
In this episode, he breaks down this new drug cartel business model, how the supply chain works, the role of Chinese money-laundering proxies, and what he believes it would take to turn the situation around.

âParents think that media literacy means knowing when someone has actually fake news versus facts. What media literacy and organizations like the News Literacy Project [are doing is] brainwashing children to not listen to independent journalists or organizations like Epoch, or like what Chris Rufo is doing, ... and to instead only go back to the mainstream media.â
In this episode, I sit down with Alvin Lui, a bona fide magician-turned-parental rights advocate, to understand the latest woke programming making its way into K-12 education.
âThe Biden administration just had this agency thatâs now proposing to do home visits to parents who are homeschooling their kidsâfor parents who donât believe in the ideologyâbecause the children might be abused at home, because the parents donât believe that they can be born in the wrong body. So thatâs the next wave. Thatâs the next move,â says Mr. Lui.
He is the founder of Courage Is a Habit, which provides practical tools and resources to counter woke indoctrination in schools.
âWe very rarely say that weâre going to fight for someoneâs children. We always say weâre going to teach you to fight for yours, because that is every parentâs God-given responsibility,â says Mr. Lui. ââResponsible decision-makingâ means something very different to parents than what these ideologues are doing in schools. They use your vocabulary, not your dictionary.â

âQataris were the ones who said, âHere, come to our country, we'll host you.â So, now it is home to the largest American airbase in the Middle East, where we conduct our war on terrorism. And then down the street from this Al Udeid Air Base is Hamas, the Taliban, al Qaeda financiers, ISIS financiers ⊠it is a truly bizarre arrangement.â
Dr. Jonathan Schanzer is senior vice president of research at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. Heâs also a former terrorism finance analyst at the U.S. Treasury Department, and the author of several books on Islamic extremism.
âThe Muslim Brotherhood is one of the largest, if not the largest, grassroots political and religious organizations in the Middle East, and it is the cornerstone for just about every radical ideology that we have seen and faced over the last two decades since the 9/11 attacks,â says Dr. Schanzer.
We discuss the role that Qatar has played in international geopolitics, commanding vast influence campaigns in the West and funding an array of terrorist outfits in the East.
âThe Qataris have been able to sustain it with a massive amount of lobby money and investment here in the United States, and so some of its greatest proponents are the Pentagon and the State Department. And theyâve gotten to the point where itâs almost as if they can do no wrongâuntil 10/7. Thatâs when it, I think, began to become clear to the average American that the Qataris are playing both arsonist and firefighter. They spend $200 million a year propping up Hamas in the Gaza Strip. They give Hamas headquarters in Doha. And then as soon as the crisis hits, they are trying to negotiate between the United States and Israel and Hamas, pretending to be a good-faith actor. But at the end of the day, I think we all have realized that they are advocating first and foremost for Hamas.â

âEmpathy, kindness, understanding: Yeah, these are all things that everyone agrees with. But whatâs really going on? Lies, deception, and physical child abuse.â
Chris Elston was living a normal life as the father of two girls in the suburbs of Vancouver, Canada, when he became aware of what he calls the âgreatest child abuse scandal in modern medicine history.â
âAnd the only thing I could do was to have some signs made and go outside,â he says.
Over the last few years, Billboard Chris, as heâs commonly known, has had conversations about gender ideology with tens of thousands of people on the streets of cities across North America. Heâs also been assaulted by gender activists close to 40 timesâincluding one case in which his arm was broken.
âThe actual cure, historically, for gender dysphoria, is puberty itself,â says Mr. Elston. âThese puberty blockers, combined with the cross sex hormones, are sterilizing children. Theyâre sterilizing thousands of autistic kids. And weâre supposed to be the bigots who are speaking out against this? Itâs total madness.â
We discuss the taboos and developments around gender and what Mr. Elston has gleaned about this topic from his conversations with ordinary people on the street.
