- Frank Gaffney - The Threat Hierarchy
In this urgent and eye-opening episode of Parresia, we welcome back national security expert Frank Gaffney, president of the Institute for the American Future and a leading voice in the fight against threats to America and Western civilization.
Frank outlines what he calls the “totalitarian trifecta” — the three interconnected forces he sees as the greatest dangers facing the United States today:• The Chinese Communist Party and its network of allies, proxies, and enablers• Sharia supremacists pursuing ideological conquest• Global elitists advancing world government through institutions like the UN and WHO, along with transnational criminal networks such as drug cartelsThe conversation dives deep into the CCP’s strategy of unrestricted warfare, elite capture in the West, massive human rights abuses (including organ harvesting and the persecution of Christians), and the lack of accountability that allows these threats to grow.
Frank also addresses the rapid encroachment of Sharia in the United States, highlighting recent developments in Texas — including the overwhelming passage of Proposition 10 to prohibit Sharia law and concerns over large-scale Islamic projects like the proposed “epic city” in East Plano.They discuss block voting, the concept of “rape jihad,” institutional capture, the “frog-boiling” effect of incremental threats, and why Western societies have been slow to respond.Frank explains why Sharia is not merely a religion but a comprehensive political, legal, and military system incompatible with the U.S. Constitution.The episode closes with practical action steps, including resources at BanSharia.com and the Sharia-Free Pledge for candidates.A must-listen for anyone concerned about the future of freedom, national sovereignty, and Western civilization.Join our newsletter to stay informed about events that educate, build alliances, and champion the values of Western Civilization. http://americanfreedomalliance.org/join-us

38 min - Dinesh D’Souza - Western Civilization vs. The United States of Islam
The American Freedom Alliance welcomed renowned author, filmmaker, and podcast host Dinesh D’Souza to Los Angeles for a powerful evening titled “Western Civilization vs. The United States of Islam.”
In his signature style—witty, incisive, and unflinching—D’Souza took the stage and delivered a wide-ranging talk that moved from personal storytelling to urgent cultural diagnosis.He began with the improbable origins of his filmmaking career, recounting how a chance encounter with Joe Ricketts led to his groundbreaking documentary 2016: Obama’s America and launched a decade-plus run of influential films, including the election-integrity blockbuster 2000 Mules.He then shared his transformative first visit to Israel with his wife Debbie, describing how biblical archaeology shattered the “higher criticism” worldview he absorbed as an English major at Dartmouth and inspired his forthcoming PragerU documentary The Stones Cry Out.Turning to the present, D’Souza offered a bracing assessment of California’s one-party political reality and the deeper predicament facing conservatives in hostile cultural territory. Drawing on William F. Buckley’s 1960s Dartmouth lecture, he urged audiences to embrace a fighting spirit of disruption and “chaos” against entrenched regimes—an approach that helped launch the careers of Laura Ingraham, Harmeet Dhillon, and others.The heart of the evening, however, was D’Souza’s sobering exploration of Islam’s challenge to the West.He previewed his new feature film United States of Islam (produced in partnership with the American Freedom Alliance), arguing that the real long-term threat is not only violent jihad but a sophisticated, patient infiltration that weaponizes America’s own principles of religious liberty, free enterprise, and private education.Mosques, he explained, have historically functioned as political, educational, and sometimes military centers; today, the same model is being deployed inside red states and blue states alike—often with the unwitting assistance of Western legal and constitutional protections.Blending historical sweep, sharp political analysis, and a clear-eyed look at the transactional worldview of President Trump versus the theological certainties of Shia Islam, D’Souza delivered a must-hear defense of Western Civilization in an age of civilizational collision.The event closed with a special preview of his biblical-archaeology documentary.Recorded live in Los Angeles June 4th 2026

In the launch episode of The Spirit of America, American Freedom Alliance President Dr. Karen Siegemund sits down with Dr. Bradley Thayer, AFA Fellow and originator of the Spirit of America Institute, for a wide-ranging conversation on American identity and its defense.
They discuss the Institute’s founding vision, the unique “Spirit of 1776” that defines the American people, our British and Western civilizational roots, the principles of political liberalism, and the urgent need to restore pride in our heritage amid unrelenting attacks from neo-Bolshevik progressive forces that have infiltrated institutions, media, education, and the Democratic Party. This inaugural discussion sets the tone for a bold new series dedicated to celebrating American exceptionalism, inoculating citizens against ideological assaults, and transmitting the accomplishments of our ancestors to future generations.Dr. Karen Siegemund, PhD, is President of the American Freedom Alliance, a Los Angeles-based organization dedicated to defending Western civilization, American values, and freedom. A scientist with extensive experience in underwater acoustics and sonar system development during the Cold War (including sea trials hunting Soviet submarines), she is also an educator and longtime advocate who famously lost a teaching position after publicly praising Western civilization’s contributions to humanity. As the daughter of a man who grew up in Hitler’s Berlin, Dr. Siegemund brings a deeply personal commitment to recognizing the fragility of liberty and the slow erosion of rights. She organizes major conferences, spoken widely on culture and politics, and leads AFA’s mission to awaken and mobilize citizens against tyranny in all its forms.
Dr. Bradley Thayer is a Fellow of the American Freedom Alliance, a prominent political scientist, and national security expert specializing in grand strategy, the rise of China, communist ideology, and threats to Western civilization. Holder of a Ph.D. from the University of Chicago, he has taught at institutions including the University of Minnesota Duluth and Missouri State University’s Department of Defense and Strategic Studies, served as a Fellow at Harvard’s Belfer Center, and worked as a consultant to RAND and in advisory roles for U.S. government security initiatives. A founding member of the Committee on the Present Danger: China, Dr. Thayer is a prolific author and commentator on U.S.-China relations, the historical evolution of communism from Lenin to the present, and the need to defend American liberalism and identity. He conceived the Spirit of America Institute to restore pride in our unique heritage and counter the domestic and international forces seeking to undermine it.

We hosted a sold-out evening in Los Angeles with Tommy Robinson, complete with high security and a riveting talk.
Drawing from years of first-hand experience, Tommy exposed how jihad is waged in the UK — through grooming gangs, horrific assaults, and authorities that protect perpetrators while persecuting victims and truth-tellers.His core message was sobering: Islam’s conquest tactics are highly effective even as a tiny minority, succeeding because far too few dare to resist.Tommy is one of those few — and he has paid a heavy price through imprisonment, smears, and constant threats.We couldn’t be prouder to host this courageous warrior and genuine hero.Thank you to everyone who attended and supported this powerful night.Recorded live in Los Angeles 15th April 2026

https://solo.to/afalliance1 hr 29 min - How the U.S. Enabled Communist China and Created Our Greatest Threat - Xi Van Fleet
Xi Van Fleet joined us to discuss her latest book, Made in America: The Hidden History of How America Enabled Communist China and Created our Greatest Threat. Her talk addressing America's century-long complicity in the rise of the Chinese Communist Party and the various reasons for our missteps in our relationship with China disclosed aspects of Chinese history, of Communism and of our foreign policy that are as important as they are ignored. We followed these remarks with a conversation between Xi and AFA President Dr Karen Siegemund, then Xi took questions from the audience, all of which made for an engaging and informative evening.
Recorded live in Los Angeles 31st March 2026
Xi Van Fleet describes herself as “Chinese by birth; American by choice, survivor of Mao’s Cultural Revolution, defender of liberty.” She was born in China, lived through the Cultural Revolution, and was sent to work in the countryside at the age of 16. After Mao’s death she was able to go to college to study English and has lived in the United States since 1986. In 2021, she delivered a school board speech in Loudoun County, Virginia against Critical Race Theory that went viral and ignited national conservative media attention. She now devotes her time and energies full time to warning about the parallels between Mao’s Cultural Revolution in China and what’s unfolding in America today. Since going public with her message, Xi Van Fleet has appeared on Fox News, Newsmax and radio shows and podcasts across the country.
