Don't miss

Glenn warns that foreign fighters trained through the Ukraine conflict, particularly in drone warfare, could become a future security threat near the United States.

The brief

Glenn opens with allegations that major banks used politically influenced reputational-risk policies against conservative, Christian, pro-life and firearms organizations, warning that financial censorship could spread.

A discussion of Christian faith and political rhetoric becomes a dispute over biblical authority, hostile campaigning and whether political opponents are being treated as enemies.

U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer discusses Greenland, Iran sanctions, Ukraine, Canada, Taiwan and semiconductor investment, arguing that manufacturing capacity underpins economic and geopolitical power.

The episode’s standout turn comes in its Ukraine discussion, where Glenn links foreign-fighter recruitment and drone training to the possibility of future militants and attacks near the United States.

Across banking, trade and war, the program advances one consistent concern: short-term political or strategic choices can create institutions, dependencies and enemies that are difficult to control.
