We’re launching a special “American Thought Leaders” series during this post-election transition period in which I will be interviewing topic matter experts and former and potential future Trump administration officials to understand what the incoming American administration’s policies in 2025 may look like—for America, Canada, and the world.
Today, I’m sitting down with David M. Friedman, former U.S. Ambassador to Israel under the Trump administration, one of the main architects of the Abraham Accords, and the author of “One Jewish State: The Last, Best Hope to Resolve the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict.”

I recently had the pleasure of attending a Pandemic Planning conference at Stanford University. It was really the first of its kind, in that it brought together a wide range of voices on the topic in an academic setting, and it was held under the auspices of the new Stanford President Jonathan Levin.
“I think it’s expanded the range of things that are allowed to be said in polite society, if you will,” says Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, a professor of health policy and the lead organizer of the conference.
“The purpose of the conference was to essentially open the floodgates of these kinds of events taking place everywhere around the world,” he says.

“When a country or a state legalizes assisted suicide or euthanasia, it can no longer call itself anti-suicide, because it specifically approves some suicides. ... It’s a very dangerous movement that is normalizing this kind of approach to dying as opposed to natural death.”
In this episode, I sit down with Wesley J. Smith, a lawyer, public speaker, award-winning author, and chair of the Discovery Institute Center on Human Exceptionalism.
“We’re seeing in Canada also the beginning of a situation where patients who have a tough time getting an oncologist because of such a long waiting list, ask to be killed because they can’t get quality medical care,” Smith says.
We dive into his work on bioethics and euthanasia, better known today as “medically-assisted suicide.”
“Assisted suicide and euthanasia is a symptom, not a cause, and there’s a deep nihilism that seems to have infected society on many levels,” Smith says.

“In the last four years, there has been an unprecedented surge in Chinese illegal immigration, so an over 1100 percent increase. … There is a large underground economy tied to this network,” says Philip Lenczycki, a senior investigative reporter at the Daily Caller News Foundation.
He has been investigating Chinese illegal immigration networks, in particular an online Telegram channel with thousands of users that has apparently served as a hub facilitating illegal crossings with travel guides, specific border crossing points, detailed routes, and scripts for interacting with Border Patrol agents and applying for asylum. Lenczycki discovered the channel was run by a self-identified Chinese cyber police agent.
Lenczycki has also found key figures in the network promoting prostitution and sex trafficking in the United States.
In this episode, he breaks down his key findings.

In this episode, I sit down with scientist and physician Dr. Robert Malone to discuss his latest book, “PsyWar,” co-authored with his wife, Dr. Jill Malone.
“Someone is making a decision about how people should think, what they should think, how they should feel, how they should behave in the world without consulting them, and you’re using a technology that is so powerful and effective that you’re literally reprogramming their mind without their consent,” says Dr. Malone. “The battleground is your mind.”
How are powerful forces using technology to propagandize and shape behavior? And what effect is it having on society?
“We used to have salons, we used to read books, we used to discuss things with each other, and now we just kind of sit by the sidelines and shoot spitballs,” says Dr. Malone. “Everybody agrees that we’ve become more and more splintered and fragmented, and that’s not a good thing, and it mostly benefits our adversaries.”

“The CCP is very smart at understanding the divides in American society, and it knows how to target both sides.”
In this episode, I sit down with Chris Chappell and Shelley Zhang, creators of the popular YouTube show “China Uncensored.”
They’ve been covering Chinese Communist Party propaganda efforts and narrative warfare for more than a decade.

“The COVID response caused much more harm than good. That’s my position on that, and I came to it by analyzing and reviewing huge amounts of academic research on all sorts of issues: excess mortality, effects on medical services, mental health, effects on the economy, poverty, food insecurity, education.”
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Kevin Bardosh. He is a medical anthropologist and the director of Collateral Global, a London-based think tank focused on improving pandemic response around the world.
“Public health has always had this tension between the authoritarian position, and then the more classical liberal, civil society philosophy,” he says.
Four years on, what have we learned about our collective response to the COVID crisis? If another pandemic happened tomorrow, how would our societies react?
“There still is this very strong industry—a pandemic industry—that thinks that they did a great job, and that people that are criticizing them are spreading misinformation,” Bardosh says. “And I think that that really needs to change.”
We discuss the global fallout from the COVID lockdowns, from rising obesity to rising poverty.
“All educational gains since 2000 around the world were wiped out with the school closures,” Bardosh says.

In certain ways China and the United States—despite being vastly different—are slowly converging, with technocratic managerial regimes playing an increasingly important role in each society, argues N.S. Lyons in his essay “The China Convergence.”
Lyons’ writings can be found on his Substack titled “The Upheaval.”

“We have a problem, just generally, that the scientific community is not actually set up to protect the public from the risk of accidents in labs.”
Dr. Bryce Nickels is a professor of genetics at Rutgers University and the co-founder of Biosafety Now, an organization that aims to reduce the public threat of lab-generated pandemics.
“Like any person that’s trying to pull the wool over anyone’s eyes, occasionally, what you‘ll do is you’ll say things that are technically correct, but it’s used to deceive. And that’s what’s been going on for this use of the term ‘gain-of-function,’” says Dr. Nickels.
In this episode, we discuss the Risky Research Review Act—legislation that, if passed, would establish an independent review board to assess whether the benefits of gain-of-function research outweigh the risks and determine whether that research should be done in the first place.
“They believe that what they’re doing is so important that it’s okay to lie,” says Nickels, referring to how scientific and government leaders hid critical information about the origins of COVID from the public. “We want to make there be incentives to tell the truth, not to hide the truth.”

It has been six years since Warren Farrell and John Gray published their groundbreaking book, “The Boy Crisis: Why Our Boys Are Struggling and What We Can Do About It.”
A prominent feminist for many years, Farrell shifted his focus when he started noticing major gaps in the conversation about men and women’s issues. He’s written multiple books, including “The Myth of Male Power” and “Why Men Earn More.”
In “The Boy Crisis,” the authors detailed how boys have been falling behind in many key metrics of success and happiness. Boys dropped out from school at higher rates, died from suicide and drug overdoses at higher rates, and committed school shootings at higher rates than girls.
In this interview, I wanted to get an update from Farrell on where things have progressed since they wrote their book.
We also dive into some key wisdom for strengthening relationships and communication from his latest book “Role Mate to Soul Mate,” in which he compiles his findings from decades of counseling couples.

Hans von Spakovsky is a former member of the Federal Election Commission and a senior legal fellow at the Heritage Foundation. He is also the head of the think tank’s Election Law Reform Initiative. He has been looking at election integrity issues for years.
In this episode, he breaks down what he sees as key vulnerabilities in the U.S. election system, from ballot harvesting to outdated voter rolls to lack of citizen verification processes.
“The biggest problem across the country is that we have an honor system for registering, so states are not doing anything to verify that you actually are a U.S. citizen,” he says.

In this episode, I sit down with Mikhaila Fuller. She is the host of the Mikhaila Peterson Podcast and co-founder and CEO of Peterson Academy, an alternative educational model that she says is affordable, interactive, and free from political bias.
“Part of the reason we put this together was to try to give people an education that’s just true, we hope—so what you’re supposed to be learning in history and in humanities and in science, math, etc.—just basic education,” Fuller says.
We dive into the different professors and courses at Peterson Academy, what they are trying to achieve, and their plans for the future.
“We’re getting top professors from institutions and we’re not telling them how to teach. We’re saying, ‘Teach this course if it was exactly the way you’d want to teach it, without guidelines from somebody else put on you.' And we have chosen professors carefully that don’t have a political bent. So it’s mostly trying to avoid woke ideology and politics in courses that shouldn’t necessarily be political. That’s how we’re trying to navigate it,” Fuller says.

“More than 50 percent of Americans are metabolically unhealthy,” says Mollie Engelhart, a regenerative farmer and entrepreneur.
Engelhart made the difficult decision to uproot her life in California due to heavy regulations and fallout from COVID-19 restrictions. She has since restarted from scratch in Texas.
“All of our food comes from these industrial systems that has been sterilized, and we’re not replenishing our microbiology when we’re eating the foods of the current systems,” she says.
“This is not a future crisis that we need to talk about ... this is happening right now.”
In this episode, we’ll take an in-depth tour of the Sovereignty Ranch and learn why Engelhart believes regenerative agriculture is the best way forward for humans, animals, and the planet.
“We can’t just depend on rice from China, and wheat from Ukraine, and lentils from Africa,” she says. Having these hubs that are growing food for the community—that is real resilience, and that is real security. And that is what I want to bring back.”

We have this issue in Latin America where the region is going towards a much more autocratic direction. Democracy is kind of dying in the darkness, and Russia, China and Iran are positioning themselves to take advantage of all that.”
Joseph Humire is executive director of the Center for a Secure Free Society and a visiting fellow at the Heritage Foundation. An expert on asymmetric warfare, he has been looking closely at Latin America for 20 years.
“The Sino-Iranian connection, in many respects, is probably the most dangerous one, even more so than the Sino-Russian connection, which is more talked about, I think, in foreign affairs,” says Humire.
In this episode, we dive into how the China–Iran–Russia coalition is influencing the region, from Venezuela to Bolivia. We also discuss how this is impacting America and the greater Western world.
“If you think China is simply doing this for economic ambitions, you’re not reading the tea leaves on how China operates. They’re buying a country. They’re buying the sovereignty of this country,” says Humire. “Fundamentally, China is making Latin America a region more inhospitable to the United States.”

“Post-journalism essentially is the idea that journalism commodifies polarization,” says former CIA media analyst Martin Gurri.
Instead of seeking objectivity and broad appeal to the general public, media seek to become a refuge for a subset of the population: “a temple of ideology” for people who share the same worldview, Gurri argues.
“If you take the Russia story where [Trump] was supposed to have been basically Vladimir Putin’s agent, [the New York Times] published at least 3,000 (by my estimate) stories on Trump being manipulated by the Russians. … They got millions and millions of subscribers because of that,” Gurri says.
He’s the author of the “The Fifth Wave” Substack column and author of “The Revolt of the Public and the Crisis of Authority in the New Millennium.”
In this episode, we dive into the radical transformation of the media and information ecosystems.

“Building on a foundation of economic and then political influence, China has drawn Russia, North Korea, and Iran into its early, active, military dictatorship coalition,” author and China expert Rick Fisher said.
In this episode, I sit down with Fisher, a senior fellow at the International Assessment and Strategy Center. He specializes in understanding the Chinese Communist Party and the Asian military balance.
“The major threat elements that China is producing on a weekly, maybe monthly basis, ought to rate headlines on the major American television networks. Cable channels should have shows that specifically highlight these various threats, but they’re not,” Fisher said. “The American public is relatively uninformed about the breadth and depth of these threats that are developing from China, Russia, North Korea, soon Iran, and the fact that they are all now in a state of coordination.”
We discuss the nuclear coalition the Chinese regime is forming with other rogue states. We also discuss the global implications of the regime’s military ambitions, from its space programs to its activity in the South China Sea.
“We lose the battle of the South China Sea, we begin to lose the battle for freedom on Earth,” Fisher said.

In this episode, I sit down with Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo. He recently issued new state guidance for COVID-19 boosters.
“We are reminding Floridians and people around the country and really around the world that these are these are not products that we recommend they put in their bodies,” he says.
We dive into the latest studies and data surrounding the COVID-19 boosters and discuss why Florida’s guidance differs from that of the federal government.
“People are pretending that they can continue skating along with the clinical trials that happened four years ago to justify approvals today,” says Dr. Ladapo.
We also look at other health concerns facing Floridians, from the recent Measles outbreak to upcoming ballot measures relating to abortion and marijuana.
We reached out to the CDC and FDA to get their response. An FDA spokesperson replied via email: “The FDA strongly disagrees with the State Surgeon General of Florida’s characterization of the safety and effectiveness of the updated mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. Vaccination is safe and effective and continues to be the cornerstone of COVID-19 prevention. The updated COVID-19 vaccines meet the agency’s rigorous scientific standards for safety, effectiveness, and manufacturing quality.”

In this episode, we sit down with Gordon Chang to understand the Chinese regime’s strategy to destabilize America, from fentanyl warfare to election disinformation to suspicious activity at the border.
“We’re seeing a change in composition of Chinese migrants. So if we go back two or three years ago, it’s basically family groups. Now you’re seeing packs of single males, groups of five to 15, military-age, traveling without family members, some of them pretending not to speak English. And as Chairman [Mark] Green noted, U.S. Border Patrol knows some of them have links to the Chinese military,” Mr. Chang says.
We also discuss China’s growing nuclear arsenal, tensions in the South China Sea, and where things may be headed.
“We have these extremely belligerent, provocative acts, some of which constitute acts of war against the Philippines. … We see this right now at Sabina Shoal. Last month, it was Second Thomas Shoal. Before that, it was Whitsun Reef. But all of these areas are very close to the main islands of the Philippines and very far from China. They are within the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.”
America has a mutual defense treaty with the Philippines and has issued multiple warnings—with little effect.
“We see momentum toward war, and we Americans have got to ask ourselves, what is going to stop this momentum to war?” Chang says.
Chang is the author of the new book “Plan Red: China’s Project to Destroy America.”

Sharyl Attkisson is an investigative journalist and the Emmy Award-winning host of “Full Measure.” She is also the author of several books, including, most recently, “Follow The Science: How Big Pharma Misleads, Obscures, and Prevails.”
“Why am I as a non-medical reporter unearthing stories that this whole industry of medical and science reporters are not unearthing?” she asks.
In this episode, we dive into the problem of scientific and medical corruption, and how Attkisson’s eyes were opened to the dangers of blindly believing every establishment narrative about our health.
“The federal government/pharmaceutical industry have learned how to take our taxpayer money, legally launder them through universities—public and private, who then say they don’t have to reply to your FOIA requests or turn over any data, who then put out studies that are little more than narratives and propaganda that go unchallenged,” says Attkisson.
“The health of the individual and their informed consent is far paramount to what you think you are doing for the good of mankind. You don’t have the right, as a researcher, to say, ‘I can sacrifice this child or I can sacrifice something about informed consent because I think I have a more noble goal.’ That’s not your right.”
