  • Episode 83 | John Ratcliffe

    27:05
    The ominous specter of political persecution and the erosion of constitutional safeguards by U.S. intelligence agencies now loom as genuine threats to the bedrock of our republic. In recent years, both the FBI and the CIA have overstepped their bounds by engaging in unwarranted surveillance of American citizens, particularly those who hold conservative viewpoints. Shockingly, they have even wielded the threat of domestic terrorism investigations against parents who dared to raise their voices during school board meetings. Former Director of Intelligence, John Ratcliffe, joins Kevin to dissect the critical issues plaguing the U.S. intelligence community today. Together, they explore avenues for conservatives to reform this system, preserving our vital capabilities in the face of a mounting threat from China while staunchly defending against insidious political abuses. Following the harrowing events of 9/11, John Ratcliffe assumed the pivotal role of Chief of the Anti-Terrorism and National Security Office in East Texas, serving diligently under President George W. Bush. This marked the beginning of a distinguished career in public service, including his election to Congress and his appointment as Director of National Intelligence by President Donald Trump in 2019.
