• We begin with a deadly New Year's Day, where two separate incidents over 1,700 miles apart have raised alarm about potential terrorism on U.S. soil. Retired FBI senior agent Kurt Pipel shares his expert analysis on these attacks and the investigations that are underway.

• Later, we delve into Xi Jinping's New Year's message, where he addressed China's economic hurdles and reinforced his aggressive stance on Taiwan. Author and China expert Gordon Chang joins us to unpack what this could mean for Beijing's strategy in 2025.
