Retired DHS Senior Advisor Berney Flowers joins the show and we have a conversation about the current situation in Los Angeles with the Anti ICE (Immigration Customs Enforcement) riots that have spread violently throughout the city. The protests turned riots were sparked when ICE went into LA on June 6th to conduct raids. Tensions between LAPD and the rioters have escalated every night since June 7th which sparked President Trump to activate and federalize the California National Guard against the will of Governor Gavin Newsom. LA Mayor Karen Bass and Gavin Newsome have stood idly by and have watched Los Angeles burn twice already this year. Additionally, President Trump has activated 700 US Marines from 29 Palms California to be mobilized if needed. National protests and riots are also planned on June 14th to protest President Trump and ICE. This protest has been dubbed the "No Kings" rally. Some experts have warned residents in US major cities to be vigilant as they are expected to turn extremely violent. June 14th is the US Army's 250th Birthday as well as President Donald J. Trump's birthday so there will be a Military parade in Washington DC.

MISSION: EMPOWERING VETERANS TO FIND PURPOSE THROUGH ADVENTURE.The Founders Story - “The Longbow Foundation didn’t begin in a boardroom—it took flight in the cockpit of an Apache Longbow over Afghanistan. Amid high-stakes missions and sleepless nights, I witnessed the burden carried by those who serve. It was in those moments—between adrenaline and silence—that the vision for Longbow was born: to stand by veterans long after the battle ends.After nine years in military aviation and over 1,200 flight hours—200 in combat—I had the honor of supporting some of the world’s most elite forces. The missions were high-stakes, the expectations uncompromising. But nothing prepared me for what came next. Transitioning out of uniform, I faced a new kind of battle: finding purpose without a mission plan. And I wasn’t alone—many of my fellow veterans, especially from special operations and aviation, were navigating the same uncertain terrain.For many veterans, the real challenge begins after combat. The mission ends, the uniform comes off—but the need for purpose remains. Without it, too many warriors feel lost, disconnected, and unsupported. The Longbow Foundation was born to change that—to help veterans rediscover direction, community, and meaning in their next chapter.” - Chase Carlton, Founder / DirectorBrian Tally

This podcast covers the botched Afghanistan withdrawal, illegal immigration, SIV holders left behind enemy lines and the dereliction of duty from the Biden Administration. This is what forced Berney Flowers and 10's of thousands of others out of the DOD to an early retirement. Berney stated he could no longer, in good faith, operate by the rules and failed policy that was being directed his way as a top Senior Advisor.
