Episode description

In this week’s episode, Congressman Don Bacon, a self-described “old school Reagan Republican,” joins hosts Sir Richard Dearlove and Christina Ruffini to unpack the internal battle over Republican foreign policy and what it means for U.S. credibility abroad. Bacon outlines how China, Iran, and North Korea are propping up Russia’s war effort and why he believes a Ukrainian defeat could embolden an attack on Taiwan. He also weighs in on the state of U.S. air power, the future of drone warfare, and the risks of prioritizing party loyalty over national security. Plus, Congressman Bacon and Sir Richard reflect on similar experiences working in Nebraska.
