Today's episode goes full "history rhymes" as we break down President Trump signing an executive order classifying illicit fentanyl as a "weapon of mass destruction"—and what that kind of language really unlocks in the national security world. Then we dig into the FY2026 NDAA: a roughly $900.6B defense authorization that gives the Pentagon more than it even asked for, locks in overseas commitments, and shows (again) how Congress will "check" war powers in theory… while keeping the money machine humming in practice.

Enjoy Nate's interview on Martens Minute! GML will return this week. Nate Thurston, co-host of the Good Morning Liberty podcast and former guitarist for the band Darling Parade, joins me to share his powerful journey through alcoholism and recovery. He opens up about his struggles with alcohol and addiction as a touring musician, and how his alcoholism spiraled out of control as his music career came to an end, nearly costing him his life. With the support of his wife, Nate confronted his addiction, quit drinking, and rebuilt his life. Now seven years sober, he enjoys a happy marriage, hosts a successful podcast, and is a respected figure in the liberty community. His advice to those struggling with addiction: You don't have to commit to quitting forever today—that can feel overwhelming. Instead, choose each morning to stay sober for that day.
