Secure Freedom Minute: So Much for a Commitment to Democracy

The professed commitment of the Biden-Harris administration to “democracy” always rang hollow. Notably, the total votes garnered by the Harris-Walz ticket roughly equaling the Democrats’ tallies in all recent presidential elections except for 2020’s suggests Biden’s victory that year was stolen, not free and fair. Now, after Donald Trump’s recent popular vote and electoral college landslide, an…

Secure Freedom Minute: With Gordon Chang & Robert Joseph

Gordon Chang, Contributor, Gatestone Institute I had a fascinating conversation with Gordon Chang about the relative quiet that is now in evidence after the election of Donald Trump in the Western Pacific, whether it is likely to persist, whether it suggests that the Chinese leadership is so beset by problems at home that it is…

Secure Freedom Minute: To Make America Healthy Again, Reject WHO Power-grabs

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. The selection by Donald Trump of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. to be the Health and Human Services Secretary powerfully reinforces our next president’s stated determination to reject efforts to compound the damage done to our people and medical freedoms during the COVID-19 pandemic. On the advice…

Secure Freedom Minute: With A.J. Rice & Dr. Naomi Wolf

A.J. Rice Author of “The White Privilege Album: Bringing Racial Harmony to Very Fine Peoples” I spoke with A.J. Rice about one of the most toxic manifestations of cultural Marxism in the United States, namely the effort to divide us along racial lines and otherwise foster animosity between people of various racial groups.  Clearly a…

Secure Freedom Minute: Make America’s Military Great Again

A laudable hallmark of Donald Trump’s first presidency was “Promises made, promises kept.” With his selection of my friend, Pete Hegseth, to be the next Secretary of Defense, he seems set to deliver on one of his most important pledges in the 2024 campaign. Think of it as “Make America’s Military Great Again.” While Pete…

Secure Freedom Minute: With Capt. James Fanell

Capt. James Fanell, Former Naval Intelligence Office In an extensive and informative conversation with Captain James Fanell, one of our country’s premier retired naval officers and experts on China, on the Chinese Communist Party, about the threat it poses to us, as well as the hopeful indications that President Donald Trump is both seized with…

Secure Freedom Minute: The CCP’s Choice for Senate Majority Leader

Senate Republicans will vote today to select their chamber’s next leader. Who they pick will have a profound effect on whether the mandate Donald Trump received – which, among other things resulted in the election of several new GOP Senators and the flipping of control of the Congress’ upper house – will translate into transformative…

Secure Freedom Minute: Trump’s Course Correction on the CCP

President-elect Trump has begun putting into place his Cabinet and a common denominator is that the emerging national security team shares his longstanding conviction that the Chinese Communist Party is not a competitor. It is a determined and increasingly dangerous enemy. While nominees to some key positions remain to be formally announced, Mr. Trump’s choices…

Secure Freedom Minute: With Grant Newsham

Grant Newsham, Senior Research Fellow, Japan Forum for Strategic Studies I spoke with Grant Newsham in a wide-ranging conversation about the challenges we face from the Chinese Communist Party, what specifically Donald Trump is going to have to do to defeat that mortal threat, and whether the people he is pulling in to work with…

Secure Freedom Minute: Trump’s Course-Correction on the CCP

President-elect Trump has begun putting into place his Cabinet and a common denominator is that the emerging national security team shares his longstanding conviction that the Chinese Communist Party is not a competitor. It is a determined and increasingly dangerous enemy. While nominees to some key positions remain to be formally announced, Mr. Trump’s choices…

Secure Freedom Minute: Honor Our Veterans in the War Against World Government

Today a grateful nation honors the service of its military veterans. While they all deserve our appreciation, I want to pay special tribute to some of our most unsung heroes. The Biden administration forced servicemen and women to submit to what turns out to have been an unapproved, experimental and dangerous COVID-19 gene therapy, not…

Secure Freedom Minute: It’s Time for Monroe Doctrine 2.0

Donald Trump’s election has created an opportunity for the desperately needed reboot in foreign policies as well as domestic ones in order to take appropriate corrective action. Of course, it is essential to have an accurate understanding of the magnitude of the problems Mr. Trump is now confronting, as well as the options for fixing…

Secure Freedom Minute: A Prayer for America

On this election day, I want to pray for America. Dear God, Thank you for the privilege of being a citizen of this country at a time such as this and for granting us a say in who leads her and the policies that will determine how she fares in a perilous era. Indeed, America…

Secure Freedom Minute: The Choice – Donald J. Trump

The time has come to make what may be the most important choice in our nation’s history: Will we persist in the trajectory Barack Obama, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have put us on for most of the past fifteen years – the radical, Marxist and fundamental transformation of America? Or will we seize the…

Secure Freedom Minute: The CCP Threat Must Be a Voting Issue

Issues of war and peace often determine a nation’s future. Consequently, when conflict looms, it generally features prominently in their elections. Yet, that is not the case in the one now coming to a close – even though the Chinese Communist Party: has declared a “People’s War” against us; has massively built up its military;…

Secure Freedom Minute: Stand With Christians – and Against Their Persecutors

On Tuesday, for the second time in as many weeks, Donald Trump tweeted about his commitment to end the persecution of Christians. By doing so, he is bringing desperately needed attention to what’s brutally happening to more than 365 million people worldwide simply because they follow Jesus Christ. I work with an amazing Save the Persecuted…

Secure Freedom Minute: The CCP’s War is Interested in You

In the closing days of this presidential campaign, you’d never know that the Chinese Communist Party is at war with us. In fact, as nearly two-hundred webinars conducted by our Committee on the Present Danger: China have documented, the Chinese Communists’ warfare has caused us incalculable harm over many years. And they are now poised…

Secure Freedom Minute: Acknowledge, Identify and Root Out the Enemy Within Now

What is the “enemy within”? The term refers to elements inside America – some of foreign origin, some domestic – who seek our destruction and are, to varying degrees, in a position to contribute to it. This threat has been neglected for far too long, at our extreme peril. Harris-Biden administration policies have enormously exacerbated…
