Great powers win industrial revolutions. Britain won the first. America won the next two. Now China is determined to dominate the fourth. In hindsight, it was a mistake for America to outsource so much of its industrial capacity over the last three decades. But decline isn’t inevitable. We still possess enormous advantages – from our innovation and capital markets to our alliances and natural resources – and China faces serious structural weaknesses of its own. I break it all down with Rush Doshi on the latest episode of Hold These Truths.

I literally wrote a book on cancel culture, so I’ve had some time to think about it. Cancel culture is when someone is unfairly destroyed for holding a mainstream opinion or making an honest mistake. It also means literal deplatforming or firing. It's mob rule dressed up as morality. But that’s not what this is. When someone like Tucker Carlson chooses to platform Nick Fuentes—a self-proclaimed neo-Nazi who’s said “Hitler was really f**king cool” and openly admits he’s in politics to “hate women and be racist”—that’s not a mistake. That’s a very deliberate choice. Ben Shapiro put it perfectly: Tucker Carlson is a launderer of disgusting ideologies. He takes reprehensible views and tries to make them palatable to the mainstream. For years, he has lied about me. Repeatedly. Why? For attention. Provocation creates attention and makes Tucker more money. I’m glad others are finally waking up to who he really is. Tucker Carlson has every right to host whoever he wants. Nick Fuentes is free to say whatever his racist, hollow heart desires. And the rest of us, people with a conscience, are free to say: this is wrong and I want no part of it. That’s not “cancelling,” that’s freedom of association (get it now, Kevin Roberts?) If we can’t draw the line at neo-Nazi, racist incels… where do we draw it?

A major blow was just dealt to the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG). This wasn’t just some crude hole in the ground made by amateurs. It was a sophisticated tunnel system they were counting on to smuggle billions of dollars worth of drugs and weapons. Smuggling tunnels have been a challenge along the border for decades. Cartels have gotten better at making them, but we’re getting better at hunting them down thanks to enhanced intelligence capabilities and stronger cooperation with Mexico.

My contacts in the Mexican Navy sent this to me. It’s an excellent example of whats really happening on the ground (or the sea) in the deadly counter-cartel fight. With our assistance, Mexico’s Navy seized a narco semi-submersible more than 250 nautical miles off the Pacific coast- loaded with 179 packages of suspected cocaine, totaling several tons. This is the third so-called “low profile vessel” the Mexican Navy has recently captured. They’re purpose-built smuggling platforms designed to evade radar and move massive quantities of drugs north. The operation involved an offshore patrol vessel, fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters, and interceptor boats- with intelligence coordination alongside U.S. Northern Command and Joint Interagency Task Force South. Three crew members detained. Cargo confiscated. Another hit to the cartel logistics and financing network. Interdiction is important, but it’s one piece of the puzzle. We have to go to war with the cartels on all fronts, and knock on the doors of their mega mansions with a bunch of guys with guns and bad attitudes. Recently the Mexican Senate approved the deployment of a SEAL platoon to train with Mexican Special Forces. Things are moving in the right direction.

Kamala the so-called “Border Czar” claimed that Republicans don’t have any meaningful solutions to secure the border. Fact check: we do. I invite Vice President JD Vance to sit down with us and hear all about it. Or better yet, meet us at the border. We’re the ones that are actually there.

Senate Democrats think you’re too dumb to read a vote count. They’ve shut down the government, voted repeatedly against reopening it, and somehow still have the nerve to blame Republicans. Keep the pressure on. They obviously don’t feel shame, but they absolutely feel backlash. So give it to them.

Democrats say they want to fix the root causes of migration. So why are they mad that we’re finally doing it by removing a dictator who has caused so many to flee? The reality is, they were never after real solutions. We are. That is why conservative leadership is exposing their hypocrisy and delivering real results.

Last week, the Jalisco New Generation Cartel kidnapped, tortured, and murdered five young Mexican college students who were lured into a trap by the promise of a fake job offer. My message to President AMLO is this: let us help you defeat these cartels once and for all.

Don't miss this one. Watch. A radical progressive told me I should actually “talk to trans kids.” She probably didn’t like my answer…. Why? Because I HAVE talked to trans kids, and that’s exactly how I know that I’m fighting for what is right and just.
