We now have an ability to destroy the earth, and you have a lot of folks that don\u2019t really care if we do it or don\u2019t do it running around with or getting close to having these weapons of mass destruction,\u201d he says. \u201cSo, for the sake of our children, our grandchildren, and the future of civilization, we have got to get a grip on this thing.\u201d\n\u201cAnd we\u2019ve got to rein in the rogue countries that are trying to destroy Western civilization and the greatest country in the history of the world, the United States of America,\u201d says Zeidman, whose New York City-based organization focuses on U.S. energy independence as \u201cthe underpinning for U.S. security\u201d and on a \u201cstrategic alliance with Israel [to] strengthen America\u2019s mutual security and global standing.\u201d\nZeidman joins today\u2019s episode of \u201cThe Daily Signal Podcast\u201d to discuss how the U.S. can supports its allies, notably Taiwan and Ukraine; how the Biden administration\u2019s energy policies specifically have affected U.S. national security; and how he would grade those energy policies.\n Hosted on Acast.
