Secure Freedom Minute: ”Othering” Christians – A Precursor to Their Persecution Here?

“White supremacists,” veterans, constitutionalists, militia members, school board-protesting parents and other patriots move over. Team Biden has a new internal enemy. It’s now warning that so-called “Christian Nationalists” are suspected of being potential violent extremists. A chilling webinar last week addressing the “Demonization of America’s Christians” made plain that what is afoot is nothing less…

Secure Freedom Minute: No Drill – The CCP is Preparing for Kinetic War

One of the most difficult tasks for U.S. intelligence is anticipating what our country’s enemies are going to do next. The Taliban’s overrunning of Kabul, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and Communist China’s biological warfare attack called COVID-19 are recent examples of nasty surprises. Our national security agencies seem no better prepared to forecast the next…

Secure Freedom Minute: The Fauci Rorschach Test

Tony Fauci’s announcement yesterday that he would finally step down from a public health post that he has parlayed over thirty-eight years into one of the most powerful – and the highest compensated – in the federal administrative state is a kind of Rorschach test. Those who have seen Dr. Fauci as the heroic scientist…

Secure Freedom Minute: A Living Legacy for Peter Pry – Secure the Grid

On Friday, America lost one of its most brilliant, impactful and indefatigable patriots, Peter Vincent Pry. Over forty years of service, both in government and out, he provided national leadership on the need to correct the vulnerabilities of our most critical of critical infrastructures, the electric grid – and how to do so. Dr. Pry…

Secure Freedom Minute: Finish the Border Wall Now!

The Biden presidency has brought us, among many other afflictions, an open border with Mexico. Communities across our nation are grappling with the societal, economic and security implications of the millions of mostly unvetted aliens who have entered the country illegally – the majority of them unaccompanied, military-age men. In addition to the obvious impact…

Secure Freedom Minute: We are the CCP’s Enemy – and the Object of the War it Needs Now

Ed Dowd is one of Wall Street’s most highly regarded analysts. Yesterday, he warned Steve Bannon’s audience that “China is collapsing.” He added that, “Internally, [the Chinese Communists] are going to have to create an enemy outside of China to rally people around.” Unfortunately, the Chinese Communist Party has already created that enemy – and…

Secure Freedom Minute: Trump Derangement Syndrome Proves Politically Fatal

Liz Cheney’s electoral rejection as the sole representative in the U.S. House of the people of Wyoming shows that a condition known as “Trump Derangement Syndrome,” which she has increasingly manifested, can be politically fatal. For those of us who have worked in the past with Rep. Cheney and her similarly afflicted father, this transformation…

Secure Freedom Minute: No More ”China Model”

There’s talk we’ll face this fall new outbreaks of the COVID-19 pandemic. Or perhaps, the Chinese Communist Party will subject us to an even worse virus than the one that’s killed a million of us so far.   The Committee on the Present Danger: China is exploring in a webinar at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time…

Secure Freedom Minute: Did the FBI ”Bug” Mar-a-Lago?

Question: Did the dozens of FBI agents who rummaged through former President Trump’s Florida home do something more there than remove large quantities of sensitive documents?   White House official-turned talk show host Sebastian Gorka told Steve Bannon’s “War Room Pandemic” show last week that a recently retired twenty-three year veteran of the Bureau asserted:…

Secure Freedom Minute: Donald Trump’s Unequal Treatment Under Law

We once were told that Merrick Garland was a great Supreme Court nominee as he had “unwavering fidelity to the rule of law.” Indeed, when now-Attorney General Garland announced yesterday that he had personally authorized the FBI raid on former President Trump’s home, he declared, “Faithful adherence to the rule of law is the bedrock…

Secure Freedom Minute: Will Congress Give Biden More Armed Raiders?

On Friday, the House of Representatives is expected to authorize the hiring of 87,000 armed IRS investigators, supposedly to pursue corporate and wealthy tax-cheats. In fact, under President Biden, this doubling of that agency’s current workforce of 90,000 employees will amount to a huge new cohort empowered to use not only unwarranted audits to intimidate…

Secure Freedom Minute: Is Biden Working for the CCP?

A profoundly troubling Committee on the Present Danger: China webinar yesterday assessed President Biden’s takedown of America’s armed forces. As the prospect looms of kinetic war with the Chinese Communist Party, the cumulative effects of his ideological purges, insane vaccine mandates, the ravages of inflation and indoctrination that America is not a nation worth dying…

Secure Freedom Minute: The Real Threat to our Republic – ”Oath Breakers”

For 18 months, we have been told that a far-right group known as “Oath Keepers” seeks to overthrow the U.S. government. It seems that others, who might be called “Oath Breakers,” pose a far greater threat to our Republic. Yesterday’s FBI raid on former President Donald Trump’s home is the latest evidence that Democratic politicians…

Secure Freedom Minute: The ”Help China Win” Act

Congressional Democrats have cynically adopted a deceptively entitled “Inflation Reduction Act.” It would be more accurate to call it the “Help China Win Act.” Americans will suffer and the Chinese Communist Party will benefit as independent economists say inflation will be undiminished – notably, devastating defense spending. Moreover, the Act will advance the CCP’s agenda…

Secure Freedom Minute: The Missiles of August

Historian Barbara Tuckman’s account of how this month in 1914 was marked by military mobilizations and maneuvers that set the stage for World War I was called The Guns of August. Welcome to the missiles of August. In recent days, the Chinese Communist Party has accompanied live-fire exercises effectively blockading Taiwan with ballistic missiles sent…

Secure Freedom Minute: Bad Time to be Financing the CCP Threat

The Chinese Communist Party has effectively begun its invasion of Taiwan with live-fire air and naval exercises surrounding the island, including some within Taiwan’s exclusive economic zone. This would seem to be a bad time for U.S. government employees and military personnel to have their retirement savings invested in CCP companies.   Yet, as an…

Secure Freedom Minute: Pelosi Trip Exposes the CCP’s War Against America

Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan didn’t cause a crisis with the Chinese Communist Party. Rather, it has simply brought into sharp focus a long-ignored reality: The CCP is at war with America. As it happens, that’s the title of a book published last month by the Center for Security Policy’s Team B. It’s available for…

Secure Freedom Minute: Tactical Victory Confirms Biden’s Strategic Defeat

The liquidation by drone strike of Osama bin Laden’s successor is a welcome tactical victory for America’s intelligence and military personnel. Sadly, it also reminds us of the magnitude of the strategic defeat we suffered at the hands of their Commander-in-Chief a year ago. Consider the following facts: Ayman al-Zawahiri was operating in Afghanistan’s capital.…

Secure Freedom Minute: Nancy’s Choice

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Will she or won’t she? House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is traveling in Asia, but hasn’t confirmed whether her itinerary will include Taiwan. It’s better. After all, China’s dictator Xi Jinping has made this a throw- down and President Biden is, once again, in full appeasement mode.…
