This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Team Biden’s appalling surrender of Afghanistan last year shocked the world.

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. On Monday, Communist China ratcheted up yet again its territorial claims to the waters, airspace and resources of the Western Pacific. Beijing declared that it “has sovereignty, sovereign rights and jurisdiction over the Taiwan Strait,” the 90-mile-wide stretch that separates Taiwan’s island from the Chinese mainland.…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. “Do something” is not generally a prescription for considered and appropriate action in an emergency. That’s especially true when the proposed options require the compromise of Americans’ constitutional rights. A gaggle of Republican Senators have just agreed with Democratic counterparts that the something they are prepared…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Last week, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and his Chinese counterpart, Gen. Wei Fenghe, held an “emergency meeting” in Singapore. Evidently, it went pretty much as have other conversations between senior Biden officials like Secretary of State Tony Blinken and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, which…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. The prime-time launch last night by the House Select Committee on January 6th showed that it’s promoting a false narrative of a government-toppling “insurrection,” not pursuing the truth. After all, the truth is there would have no been penetration of the Capitol had it been on…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. As a young man, I had the privilege of working for five years for a great Democratic Senator named Henry “Scoop” Jackson.

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Last August, Joe Biden failed to deter the Taliban’s final assault in Afghanistan.

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Thirty-three years ago last weekend, the Chinese Communist Party murdered tens of thousands of students and others in Beijing’s Tiananmen Square and elsewhere for courageously protesting its abuses, corruption and oppression.

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Another day, another mass casualty shooting. Inevitably, federal legislators will redouble efforts to give the appearance of “doing something” to stop such violence. One idea under consideration is “universal” background checks. There’s a significant problem that arises from what is, arguably, the most enduring impact of…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. We seem to have dodged a bullet last week at the World Health Assembly. No, it wasn’t the 9-millimeter kind President Biden wants to restrict. Rather, it was one Team Biden aimed at our sovereignty via proposals to let a proxy for the Chinese Communist Party…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Incredibly, at the stroke of midnight tonight, an obscure federal agency will enable the retirement savings of military men and women, past and present, and their civilian counterparts to be invested in companies controlled by the Chinese Communist Party. Worse yet, the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment…

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Memorial Day is more than just a time to remember the sacrifice of fallen American heroes.

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. The convergence of the Communist and capitalist wellsprings of the new world order – and its ominous implications for Americans and others who love freedom – was on display in Davos, Switzerland yesterday. At the globalist World Economic Forum, the Chinese Communist Party’s tech giant, Alibaba,…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. As Team Biden continues to flail publicly about what, if anything, it will do if the Chinese Communist Party attacks Taiwan, the CCP’s menace is becoming ever clearer.
