Mike Pompeo, former Secretary of State and CIA Director, Fox News Contributor, and author of Never Give an Inch: Fighting for the America I Love, joined The Guy Benson Show today for a wide-ranging conversation on foreign policy and national security. Pompeo weighed in on President Trump's pitched plan to end the conflict in Gaza, along with his brand new Sunday ultimatum, arguing the proposal offers the best hope for Gazans, Palestinians, and Israel, even though Hamas may never abandon its terrorist mindset. Sec. Pompeo also addressed the troubling rise of global antisemitism, including an attack in the UK on Yom Kippur, before turning to the war in Ukraine and the growing intelligence partnership between Washington and Kyiv that is enabling strikes deep inside Russian territory. Pompeo and Benson also detailed the CCP's foiled effort to target New York City's cell grid, as well as the potential TikTok deal that could finally force Beijing to relinquish control of the platform's algorithm, a development that would help quell many national security fears.

Kim Strassel, Potomac Watch columnist for the Wall Street Journal, Fox News Contributor, and author of The Biden Malaise: How America Bounces Back from Joe Biden's Dismal Repeat of the Jimmy Carter Years, joined The Guy Benson Show today to break down Chuck Schumer's government shutdown and why it is directly hurting broad swaths of government workers while giving Vought and the Trump admin an opening for mass firings. Strassel explained why the "collective insanity" of the left has led Democrats to abandon their stance on clean CRs, and how the move is really about coddling the far left so Schumer has a message to run on when facing possible primary challenges. Strassel and Benson also broke down why the assassination of Charlie Kirk is now being used by universities as an excuse to shut down right-wing speech under the guise of "security concerns."
