Today on Mea Culpa, I welcome back Malcolm Nance, retired U.S. Navy Senior Chief, New York Times bestselling author, and leading expert on terrorism, extremism, and insurgency. With Donald Trump’s inauguration taking place today, Malcolm and I delve into what lies ahead for our nation. Drawing from his extensive experience in the Middle East, Malcolm offers insights into the ceasefire between Israel and Gaza. We also analyze Trump’s cabinet picks and their confirmation hearings, focusing on the potential threats they pose to national security. As the next chapter of our country begins, we underscore the urgency of resisting autocratic policies, safeguarding democratic values, and combating disinformation through strategic, independent media efforts.
