Loose lips sink ships. That World War II warning still rings true today — except now the danger isn’t just enemies listening in. It’s loose lips even with our allies. We just watched that chilling clip: Israel’s Prime Minister reportedly had a direct hand in writing Section 224 of this year’s NDAA. Think about that — a foreign leader shaping America’s defense law. That’s not partnership. It’s something else. We’re going to ask the hard questions today: Should we be merging our industrial base and fusing our intelligence with allies? Or are we handing over the keys to our own house? We’ll look at the reports that President Trump is furious with Israel right now — and what that tells us about the state of the alliance. And Iran? It’s still all about the nukes. The mullahs have never stopped racing for the bomb, and every day we pretend otherwise is another day we’re playing with fire. President Trump is close on a deal, even with the nuclear weapons, with Iran and he should be angry that an ally is disrupting that. To cut through the noise and give us straight talk from the inside, I’m joined right now by retired CIA officer, intelligence expert, and publisher of AND Magazine — Sam Faddis.

Folks, today we’re bringing you a story that should shake every American to the core — a true January 6th story of corruption, persecution, survival, and ultimate victory. Our guest is retired U.S. Navy Lieutenant Commander Thomas Caldwell — a decorated veteran who honorably served our nation for nearly two decades, mostly in the Intelligence Community. He’s a former radio personality, humorist, artist, and conservationist who, until that fateful day, lived a quiet life with his wife Sharon on their family farm in Berryville, Virginia, deep in the Shenandoah Valley. But two weeks after January 6th, 2021, the peace of that idyllic farm was shattered. Armored vehicles and federal agents showed up to arrest an innocent, elderly, disabled veteran — a man the government knew had committed no crime. Tom was charged with conspiracy, falsely accused of leading an insurrection as part of the Oath Keepers. Prosecutors demanded he spend the rest of his life in prison. For nearly two months he endured solitary confinement, denial of medicine and medical care, physical abuse, and total isolation — while his farm was raided, credit cards canceled, retirement and health coverage stripped away. Four long years of lawfare followed. Yet through it all, Tom’s unshakeable Christian faith, his wife’s steadfast love, and the power of prayer carried him through. He was acquitted outright of four felony charges and received a full presidential pardon from President Donald J. Trump in March of 2025. He tells the whole story in his powerful book, The Mouths of the Wicked — an eyewitness account that serves as both a warning and a testament to the indomitability of faith.
