The National Security Hour

The National Security Hour with Col. Mike and Dr. Mike – Indeed, the close relationship between American leaders and Israel contributes nothing to American security. That relationship does nothing but undermine U.S. security at every turn, from Israel publicly paying all but one member of the U.S. Congress to do its bidding, thereby controlling it, to conducting espionage against the American military...

The National Security Hour with Major Fred Galvin – Just last week, we discussed the high probability of a massive joint American and Israeli air, naval, and cyber strike on Iran’s military infrastructure. Then it happened. That’s not prediction theater — that’s pattern recognition. But here’s the reality: Iran is not the final exam. The real test facing the US is the CCP...

The National Security Hour with Brandon Weichert – Iran knows something else, too: they don’t have to “win.” They just have to outlast us. They can wait, harass, bleed, and spike energy prices until American politics does the rest. And yes, squeezing Gulf infrastructure or shipping lanes isn’t just military leverage —it’s electoral leverage. You don’t have to topple Trump. You just have to make his...

The National Security Hour with Blanquita Cullum – Do the media and the public really understand the nature of the threat? Timing? Coordination with Israel? Qatar, the UAE, Kuwait, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia have provided air defense, airspace, and logistical support. Other allies, including Australia, have supported the strikes. As Americans became aware of a coordinated launch of targeted air strikes...

The National Security Hour with Col. Mike and Dr. Mike – There probably is not a lot of time before U.S. leaders have to decide if they will conduct a land war in Iran. The U.S. military has already expended a significant amount of ordnance from stockpiles that were described as “inadequate for a long war” before the first shot was fired. But it now appears that the Iranians are ready for a long war...

The National Security Hour with Major Fred Galvin – What would a post-theocracy Iran look like — reformist state, military junta, or hardened IRGC stronghold? And while America shifts naval and air power toward the Middle East… What are China’s trigger lines for military aggression? Does extended U.S. engagement in Iran create a strategic opportunity for Beijing in the Pacific?

The National Security Hour with Brandon Weichert – The danger is not simply that the United States could stumble into war with Iran or be drawn deeper into Mexico’s security crisis. The greater risk is that these events signal a broader erosion of strategic clarity. Without clear priorities, reliable alliances, and adaptable military doctrine, even the world’s most powerful nation can find itself...

The National Security Hour with Blanquita Cullum – What does this mean for Americans unable to leave? Some are stuck in airports, many are fearful, and some need medicine and are desperate for a timeline/hope to exit the country. We discuss the massive influence of the cartels, whose reach extends to almost every state in the U.S. Where does it go from here, and how will the...

The National Security Hour with Col. Mike and Dr. Mike – Isn’t it odd that on what seems to be the eve of a U.S. attack on Iran, violent demonstrations and protests have again started inside Iran to serve as another casus belli? This development certainly is occurring thanks to Israeli intelligence operations. Iranians and all Middle Easterners also have heard the U.S. Ambassador in Israel claim that all of...

The National Security Hour with LTC Sargis Sangari – A stadium is not a charity. It is private capital and local jobs. If policy chases headline projects for political reasons while choking everyday taxpayers, that signals weakness. Federal funding can be pulled when states fail basic compliance. That can cost billions in transit, childcare, and infrastructure. Credit agencies warn that thin margins and...
