Interview with Phillip Drake

Published: July 28, 2023, 7 a.m.

I\u2019ve never done anything political on my show. But this is One Sharp Sword - cutting through to what matters most. So when I was introduced to a man who has been a U.S. Gov\u2019t contractor (which he admits is a euphemism for spy) who found his moral compass wouldn\u2019t let him act on the president\u2019s orders, I wanted to learn more.

With Phillip Drake, there IS more. He\u2019s also directly involved in rescuing girls and women from the sex trafficking industry. This is a huge issue, because it\u2019s happening right here - no matter where you are - it\u2019s happening around you. And, because of what he knows and because of what he believes, he\u2019s put his hat in the ring to become the next U.S. President.

So, I\u2019ve potentially interviewed the next president of the United States. Yes, a lot of things need to align for that to happen, but it\u2019s possible. And I invite you to listen in to what Phillip Drake believes in and see if there\u2019s anything you\u2019d really push against. If nothing else, we\u2019ve got some amazing leadership lessons woven throughout this content. I think this guy could actually bring people together over a conversation, not a shouting match. And look, you don't have to agree with everything he says. I don't agree with 100% of everything that my best friend says. But I listen. And if any other presidential candidate wants to be interviewed on my show, I\u2019d entertain the idea.

Here\u2019s Phillip Drake\u2019s story:
After being involved in spying on U.S. Citizens under the Office of the Inspector General, he had his son five years ago and his perspective and values changed. He notes becoming a man of principles and integrity.

This interview takes place on his family farm in South Carolina and he notes that he was taught to do the right thing and noted that the world isn\u2019t always fair.

In terms of politics, Phillip notes that we need to really work with people. Big companies and government organizations are entities. And entities have no feelings. Agents are extensions of entities and we need to ensure that agents can actually act on behalf of The Constitution.

Phillip makes no bones about some of the things that are wrong in this country: \u201cThe school system is a joke! We\u2019re not taught history correctly. Nor were we taught about The Constitution correctly.\u201d Separately he emphasizes, \u201cThe Constitution is the law of the land!\u201d But who really knows what it says?

In terms of running for president, Mr. Drake notes that it\u2019s not something he necessarily wants to do, but it\u2019s something he feels he has to do!

Leadership lessons:
     \u2022    Stay Curious - Phillip decided to run for president then decided to learn what it would
          take to do that. He never stops learning.
     \u2022    Go for your goals - there will be obstacles, but your passion for the outcome will help you
           overcome the obstacles.
     \u2022   Just communicate! So simple, yet so hard to do!
