Trump triggers the left over NATO members’ failure to pay their fair share for their defense. Once again, the globalists are alarmed that President Trump would dare to challenge NATO members to step up once he resumes office in January 2025. Not only have most of them failed to maintain defense spending at 2% of their GDP, but they depend on the U.S. to fund NATO’s operations as well. The U.S. has $34 trillion in debt largely because we pay for Europe’s protection since the Cold War. What a racket. Erik and Mark say it’s time for a correction with the NATO alliance and only Donald Trump will deliver it.

Erik explains what we should have done differently in Afghanistan, outlining a plan that would have saved trillions of dollars and thousands of American lives while actually eliminating the Taliban. He also discusses his proposal to avert the Russian invasion of Ukraine for less than $1 billion by sending Ukraine obsolete American aircraft - including the A-10, which was designed to take on the very same tanks Russia used in its invasion.

The episode concludes with Erik's strategy for replacing the failed Neocon ideology with a common-sense approach to foreign policy: Make our enemies fear us, our friends love us, and our rivals respect us.

Losing on Purpose: The Neocon Strategy is Designed to Fail

Erik Prince explains how the Neocon ideology and the military-industrial complex repeatedly thwarted efforts to implement an effective military strategy in Afghanistan. Instead of allowing a small number of NATO Special Forces soldiers to help the Afghan military keep the Taliban in check, the Pentagon insisted on a conventional military presence despite abundant evidence that their strategy was nothing more than an eye-wateringly expensive boondoggle.

Too Big to Win: How the Neocons Snatched Defeat from the Jaws of Victory

Erik traces the development of the Neocon establishment in Washington, starting with the collapse of the USSR and the need for new justifications to maintain the high defense spending that sustains the military-industrial complex. From an unnecessarily militant posture toward Russia that indirectly led to the present war in Ukraine to fomenting conflict and genocide in Africa, the Neocon legacy is one of death, destruction, and enormous profits.

Erik points out that private security firms have a track record of low-cost, highly-effective peacekeeping missions, yet are consistently blocked by Neocon administrations in Washington that prefer ineffective, high-cost military operations. The money wasted on arming and equipping these interventions has fueled the explosion of the U.S. national debt while lining the pockets of politicians, defense contractors, and political activist groups.

Blood Money: The Neocon establishment’s conspiracy to profit from endless war

Emboldened by the appeasement of the Biden administration, Iran is more brazenly aggressive than ever before. Erik Prince offers his expert assessment of the recent exchanges of drone and missile attacks between Israel and Iran and answers the most pressing questions, including: Why didn’t the situation escalate to all-out war? What’s going to happen next? What does it mean for the U.S.? How is it going to affect the price of oil? What will Iran do next?

Erik breaks down America’s role in the conflict, Iran’s strategic decision-making, and Israel’s diplomatic constraints.

Is Iran’s Aggression a Sign of Weakness?

The political elites are once again manipulating public policy for their own gain while hanging American taxpayers out to dry, with Speaker Mike Johnson ramming through $95 billion in new foreign aid spending with the help of Democrat votes. Meanwhile, Congress has just renewed FISA, prolonging one of the greatest threats to the civil liberties of American citizens. Erik explains how the latest reauthorization of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act should really be called DISA, because it functions more like a Domestic Intelligence Surveillance Act, complete with expanded definitions that allow the federal government to spy on Americans even more broadly. Not only do tech and communications companies have no choice but to do the government’s bidding, but they’re not even allowed to inform citizens when the government accesses our information.
