Secure Freedom Minute: Stop UN Taxation Without Representation

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.  Next year, we’ll celebrate the 250th birthday of a nation founded to ensure there’s “no taxation without representation.”  Unfortunately, the United Nations is poised to start levying taxes our representatives can’t prevent, putting its pursuit of world government on steroids.  It begins with the International Maritime…

Secure Freedom Minute: Wall Street Must Delist – and Stop Trading – CCP Stocks

The claxons are sounding on Wall Street. Finally, analysts are beginning to take seriously the prospect that the U.S. financial sector’s longstanding practice of underwriting our mortal enemy, the Chinese Communist Party, is becoming untenable. Praise the Lord. For example, one insider newsletter recently put it this way: “We continue to believe the de-listing of…

Secure Freedom Minute: A Promise Made to Our Military – and Kept

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.  Donald Trump takes rightful pride in his record of “Promises made, promises kept.” He delivered on another important pledge with the restoration to the U.S. Air Force of one its most formidable leaders, my colleague Matthew Lohmeier.  Lieutenant Colonel Lohmeier’s installation last week as that service’s…

Secure Freedom Minute: A Palestinian State? Fuggedaboutit!

Nearly one hundred years ago, the French government proposed a treaty to ban war. The resulting Kellogg-Briand Pact proved to be an exercise in futility, notably with the outbreak of World War II, history’s worst conflict.  Next week, the French will sponsor another act of delusional diplomacy at a UN conference in New York to…

Secure Freedom Minute: Concerned About Chinese AI? Stop Underwriting It

Yesterday, President Trump signed a slew of executive orders intended to assure U.S. leadership in artificial intelligence.  In the interest of competing with Communist China’s aggressive pursuit of AI superiority, however, safeguards and oversight aimed at preventing “FrankenAI” from transforming us into a CCP-like“digital gulag” are being given short shrift.  Another, less fraught way to…

Secure Freedom Minute: Trump Dares Call It Treason

 President Trump weighed in yesterday on “Obamagate” – the nation’s most serious political scandal, ever. Citing evidence released last week by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, Mr. Trump declared that his predecessor, Barack Obama, had personally led an effort to “rig the 2016 election,” then did rig the 2020 one and was guilty of…

Secure Freedom Minute: “Obamagate:”

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.  Welcome to “Obamagate.”  Last week, the former Democratic Member of Congress who is now the Director of National Intelligence released copious documentary proof that in early December 2016, shortly after Donald Trump was elected to succeed him, then-President Barack Obama personally participated in the launch of…

Secure Freedom Minute: Team Trump Defends Freedom, Again

On Friday, the United States formally rejected a backdoor expansion of world government. In a joint statement, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert Kennedy, Jr. and Secretary of State Marco Rubio renounced American participation in a de facto treaty sneakily adopted last year by the World Health Assembly with the connivance of the Biden administration,…

Secure Freedom Minute: The Red-Green-Blue Axis

On Saturday evening, I will be joining two of the world’s most knowledgeable authorities on the threat posed by “enemies within” in an extremely timely conversation sponsored by Karen Siegemund’s American Freedom Alliance. The subject is the “Red-Green Axis” – the increasingly dangerous alliance between Communists and Sharia-supremacists in America. Trevor Loudon and Robert Spencer…

Secure Freedom Minute: Reconsider U.S. Support for Syria’s Jihadists

In recent days, Syria’s formerly designated terrorist group known as HTS has conducted murderous attacks against Christians and Druze communities and seems set on destroying the survivors and what remains of that long-suffering country’s other minorities.  Unsurprisingly, the group’s erstwhile leader, Ahmed al-Sharaa, claims to oppose such crimes against humanity. He has, after all, to…

Secure Freedom Minute: “High Time” We Stop the CCP’s Chemical Warfare Here

For over three decades, the Chinese Communist Party has waged what it calls “unrestricted warfare” against the United States. Currently, its myriad, devastating lines of attack include what amounts to chemical warfare involving the covert manufacture and dissemination of toxic drugs that are poisoning — and even killing – large numbers of Americans. The CCP…

Secure Freedom Minute: Reject the WHO’s Global Governance Gambit NOW!

President Trump has commendable understood – and rejected – efforts by champions of “global governance” like the World Health Organization to foist upon Americans international agreements that would crush our sovereignty and personal freedoms.  To his great credit, Mr. Trump has given notice that the U.S. is withdrawing from the WHO. But it won’t be…

Secure Freedom Minute: Raise Tariffs on the CCP, End Its Life Support from U.S. Consumers

Donald Trump is continuing to ramp up threats to impose high tariffs on imports from nations around the world. Most of those being targeted are allies or at least friendly trading partners. One that has yet to receive the President’s intensified pressure, however, is actually a mortal enemy: Communist China.  CCP propaganda outlet Global Times…

Secure Freedom Minute: America Starts Adopting a War-footing, at Last

This week, the Trump administration took the first, long-overdue step to put America on a war-footing.  That’s the upshot of a new “National Farm Security Action Plan” explicitly aimed at reducing the very considerable threat posed by the Chinese Communist Party to our food supply, related production operations and farmland across the country.  The Action…

Secure Freedom Minute: Trump Was Right – We must Defeat, Not Enable, Sharia-supremacism

On the eve of his first election, Donald Trump warned about the threat posed by an ideology he described as “radical Islamic terrorism,” sharply criticizing those who ignored that reality – and committing to counter it comprehensively.  Today, President Trump is surrounded by official and unofficial advisors convinced that deals can be done with devoted…

Secure Freedom Minute: Secretary Rubio Meets “FrankenAI”

Secretary of State Marco Rubio is the latest high-profile victim of an illegal impersonation enabled by artificial intelligence. Several nations’ foreign ministers, a state governor and a U.S. senator received voice messages apparently from him. It’s hard to overstate the damage such seemingly official communications involving senior government leaders with national security responsibilities could cause.…

Secure Freedom Minute: Wall Street Must Stop Helping the CCP Prepare to Kill Americans

On February 21st, President Trump issued a National Security Presidential Memorandum making it the policy of the U.S. government to stop underwriting the Chinese Communist Party.  Three months later, Jamie Dimon’s JP Morgan and Brian Moynihan’s Bank of America flouted that “America First Investment Policy.” They helped arrange for Americans and others to invest over…

Secure Freedom Minute: Is Trump Tired of Winning?

President Trump famously promised that we would “get tired of winning.” The question occurs: Has he gotten tired of winning?  That appears to be the case in the wake of Mr. Trump’s declaration that Israel’s war with Iran is over. Today, he is expected to follow up that ceasefire with another one in Gaza between…

Secure Freedom Minute: Celebrate Our Freedom, Let the Iranian People Achieve Theirs

Today we celebrate the founding of our nation and those who fought to realize the vision of an America free of British misrule to which they courageously pledged their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor.  As it happens, but for the intervention of another foreign power, all might well have been lost. In 1777,…
