Join America's Roundtable radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy featuring a special salute to our veterans with Tyler Kinch, a rising country artist and U.S. Air Force veteran.

Listen to Tyler's single "Frontlines," a special exclusive on America's Roundtable.

Tyler has had the honor of sharing the stage with some of the biggest names in the industry, including Justin Moore, Lee Greenwood, Nate Smith, Lonestar, Randy Houser, Collin Raye, Mike Ryan, Tanner Usrey, Matt Stell, Chris Janson, and many more.

A few weeks ago, Tyler took the stage at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC, where Secretary of War Pete Hegseth received an award by the Nestpoint Foundation.

On the eve of Veterans Day we also focus on the concerns for those who served on the frontlines with a call to our fellow Americans to get involved in providing help and hope to those experiencing challenges. According to data in by the US Census of Bureau, there were an estimated 15.8 million military veterans in the U.S. as of late 2023.

According to the VA’s most recent National Veteran Suicide Prevention Annual Report (2024), an average of 17.6 veterans die by suicide every single day. Although this figure is widely accepted, the real number may be even higher by "self-injury mortality," often through overdoses.

In May 2025, the Trump administration highlighted the need to honor veterans, stating that the federal government “should treat veterans like the heroes they are.” As part of this commitment, the Trump administration signed an executive order to combat veteran homelessness by establishing the National Center for Warrior Independence, aiming to house 6,000 veterans by 2028.

About Tyler Kinch:

After serving in the military, Tyler swapped his combat boots for cowboy boots and took to the stage with a passion for country storytelling. For over a decade, he’s lit up honky-tonks and festivals across the South, building a loyal following one heartfelt lyric at a time.

In June of 2024, Arkansas Country Music honored Tyler as Entertainer of the Year, for the second year in a row. This award reflects not only his artistry but the impact he’s made on the country music scene.

He’s had the honor of sharing the stage with some of the biggest names in the industry, including Justin Moore, Nate Smith, Lonestar, Randy Houser, Collin Raye, Mike Ryan, Tanner Usrey, Matt Stell, Chris Janson, Lee Greenwood, and many more.

Known for his high-energy shows and heartfelt performances, Tyler Kinch continues to win over fans and country radio alike. His patriotic single “Frontlines” was featured on national television during a special Veterans Day segment on Fox & Friends, earning praise for its authenticity and emotional punch. With his single “Dancing with a Cowboy” released on early this year, followed by a full EP this past summer, Tyler is stepping into a breakout moment.

Join America's Roundtable radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with Gordon G. Chang, a leading expert on U.S.-China relations. Gordon G. Chang is an American attorney and author of Plan Red: China's Project to Destroy America and The Coming Collapse of China. Chang lived and worked in China and Hong Kong for almost two decades, most recently in Shanghai, as Counsel to the American law firm Paul Weiss and earlier in Hong Kong as Partner in the international law firm Baker & McKenzie. He served two terms as a trustee of Cornell University.

The conversation with Gordon Chang focuses on the threats emanating from China that are impacting America on the economic and security fronts. Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy speak with Gordon Chang about China's aggressive tactics to undermine the United States. From cyberattacks to fentanyl and economic power plays, Chang breaks down the CCP’s dangerous agenda.

How will America and other democratic nations respond to the growing influence of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) led by its Secretary General Xi Jinping who wants to shape the world in China's image?

Plan Red: China's Project to Destroy America by Gordon G. Chang

In his new book Plan Red: China's Project to Destroy America, Gordon Chang writes that in Xi Jinping's conception of the world, there is no place for the United States or even the current international order.

Analyst Gordon G. Chang warns that Xi Jinping believes he must destroy America to accomplish his objectives. And that Xi already has a plan to do it. Xi reveres Mao and is marching China back to Maoism. He is reinstituting totalitarian social controls, demanding absolute political obedience from everyone, and cutting foreign links. Closing China off from the world is an essential element of his plan to save the communist system. His isolationism and xenophobia evoke policies from the earliest years of the People's Republic and during the two millennia of imperial rule. And Xi can't stop talking about war. More significantly, he is implementing the largest military buildup since the Second World War, he is trying to sanctions-proof the Chinese regime, he is stockpiling grain and other commodities, he is surveying America for strikes and sabotage, he is mobilizing China's civilians for battle, and he is purging China's military of officers opposed to going to war.

Gordon G. Chang's writings on China and North Korea have appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The National Interest, The American Conservative, Commentary, National Review, Barron's, and The Daily Beast. He is a columnist at Newsweek and writes regularly for The Hill.

He has given briefings at the National Intelligence Council, the Central Intelligence Agency, the State Department, and the Pentagon. He has also spoken before industry and investor groups including Bloomberg, Sanford Bernstein, Royal Bank of Scotland, and Credit Lyonnais Securities Asia. Chang has appeared before the House Committee on Foreign Affairs and the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission.

Chang has appeared on Fox News Channel, Fox Business Network, Newsmax, CNN, MSNBC, CNBC, PBS, the BBC, and Bloomberg Television.

Mornings with Maria: Gatestone Institute senior fellow Gordon Chang discusses Trump's handling of China during his presidency, China-linked hackers allegedly hitting U.S. internet providers and GOP senators trying to curb the country's influence on the west. | "Mornings with Maria" features anchor Maria Bartiromo alongside a roundtable of rotating industry titans and economic experts discussing the major news and themes driving the business day and the market moves.

A brilliant historian and an intellectual giant, Victor Davis Hanson is the author of numerous books including his most recent "The End of Everything: How Wars Descend into Annihilation."

Our conversation with Victor Davis Hanson, Professor Emeritus of Classics at California State University, Fresno, focuses on the following issues impacting America and our allies abroad:

— The Failures of America’s foreign policy under the Biden-Harris Administration and the risk it poses to Americans and trusted allies abroad including Israel.

— Concerns raised about the undemocratic nature of the Democratic Party.

— How Washington's policies are impacting American families on the economic and security fronts.

— What key policies are needed to benefit all Americans

—What can we expect in the run-up to the 2024 US Presidential election

The End of Everything | Victor Davis Hanson

In this “gripping account of catastrophic defeat” (Barry Strauss), a New York Times–bestselling historian charts how and why some societies chose to utterly destroy their foes, and warns that similar wars of obliteration are possible in our time.

War can settle disputes, topple tyrants, and bend the trajectory of civilization—sometimes to the breaking point. From Troy to Hiroshima, moments when war has ended in utter annihilation have reverberated through the centuries, signaling the end of political systems, cultures, and epochs. Though much has changed over the millennia, human nature remains the same. Modern societies are not immune from the horror of a war of extinction. In The End of Everything, military historian

Victor Davis Hanson narrates a series of sieges and sackings that span the age of antiquity to the conquest of the New World to show how societies descend into barbarism and obliteration. In the stories of Thebes, Carthage, Constantinople, and Tenochtitlan, he depicts war’s drama, violence, and folly. Highlighting the naivete that plagued the vanquished and the wrath that justified mass slaughter, Hanson delivers a sobering call to contemporary readers to heed the lessons of obliteration lest we blunder into catastrophe once again.

"In The End of Everything, Hanson tells compelling and harrowing stories of how civilizations perished. He helps us consider contemporary affairs in light of that history, think about the unthinkable, and recognize the urgency of trying to prevent our own demise."
—H.R. McMaster, author of Battlegrounds

As a former United States Senator and member of the House of Representatives, Governor George Allen shares his thoughts and ideas regarding the top priorities that the House Republican leadership ought to consider for the next two years. Governor Allen will also weigh in on the lessons learned from the 2022 midterm elections. The discussion will also highlight the importance of economic competitiveness among US states, and how America's citizens benefit from low taxes, less government regulation and greater economic liberty.

Governor Allen also highlights serious concerns regarding the dangerous politicization of the United States Military, the low morale experienced within the ranks, and the urgency to rebuild the readiness of America's military. The discussion also spotlights the dangers on the U.S. southern border and the increased flow of drugs including fentanyl killing tens of thousands of young people across America.

The conversation also brings to the forefront the Abraham Accords, and its importance for America, Israel and the Middle East.

Brief Bio

George F. Allen served the Commonwealth of Virginia for more than 20 years, as governor, in both bodies of the United States Congress, and as a delegate holding Thomas Jefferson’s seat in the Virginia General Assembly.

Sworn in as governor in 1994, George Allen brought sweeping reform that made Virginia a national model in economic development, public safety, education accountability, and creative government. As a self-described “Common Sense Jeffersonian Conservative,” Allen pushed through cutting edge reform with bipartisan support in a legislature held by the opposition.

Elected to the United States Senate in 2000, George Allen continued to advocate policies to make America and Virginia a leader in innovation and technology. Senator Allen was unanimously elected a member of the Senate Republican Leadership as chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee in 2002.

Hanson received a BA in classics at the University of California, Santa Cruz (1975), was a fellow at the American School of Classical Studies, Athens (1977–78), and received his PhD in classics from Stanford University (1980).

The timely conversation brings to the forefront America's vanishing middle class and how government policies are impoverishing millions of citizens. Professor Victor Davis Hanson will provide his perspective on the influx of over 3 million illegal immigrants entering through the US southern border and its impact across the country. Key topics will also cover the significant erosion of the rule of law, and the weakening state of our national security.

The Washington Post reports on the data compiled on illegal immigrants — "The agency is on pace to exceed 2 million detentions during fiscal 2022, which ends in September, after tallying a record 1.73 million in 2021."

In an essay titled "A Quiet Destruction," Professor Hanson wrote,

"There is a common mentality evident in these pathologies and among those policymakers responsible for them. It is a strange new sense of justified entitlement among our credentialed elites in government and in private enterprise. As self-righteous moralists, they now assume that their deserved affluence, influence, and cultural superiority should exempt them from suffering firsthand the consequences of their own abstract theories and misbegotten policies that fall so heavily and so destructively upon distant and forgotten others."

Professor Hanson provides a clarion warning by relaying evidences of the looming peasant state:

"The result is the emergence of a new American peasantry, of millions of Americans who own little or no property. The new majority has scant, if any, savings. Fifty-eight percent of Americans have less than $1,000 in the bank. A missed paycheck renders them destitute, completely unable to service sizable debt. Most of what they buy, from cars to electronic appurtenances, they charge on credit cards."

The Dying Citizen: How Progressive Elites, Tribalism, and Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America

The New York Times bestselling author explains the decline and fall of the once cherished idea of American citizenship.

Human history is full of the stories of peasants, subjects, and tribes. Yet the concept of the “citizen” is historically rare—and was among America’s most valued ideals for over two centuries. But without shock treatment, warns historian Victor Davis Hanson, American citizenship as we have known it may soon vanish.

In The Dying Citizen, Hanson outlines the historical forces that led to this crisis. The evisceration of the middle class over the last fifty years has made many Americans dependent on the federal government. Open borders have undermined the idea of allegiance to a particular place. Identity politics have eradicated our collective civic sense of self. And a top-heavy administrative state has endangered personal liberty, along with formal efforts to weaken the Constitution.

As in the revolutionary years of 1848, 1917, and 1968, 2020 ripped away our complacency about the future. But in the aftermath, we as Americans can rebuild and recover what we have lost. The choice is ours.

Articles and Essays by Professor Victor Davis Hanson:

The Sovietization of American Life
Behind all our disasters there looms an ideology, a creed that ignores cause and effect in the real world—without a shred of concern for the damage done to those outside the nomenklatura.

A Quiet Destruction
The problem is not that government is doing too much or too little, but rather that it is utterly failing in those key tasks that must rightfully be its focus.

The Mercury News | Hanson: The American people are being forced to imagine the unimaginable
Americans are now entering uncharted, revolutionary territory. They may witness things over the next five months that once would have seemed unimaginable. Until the Ukrainian conflict, we had never witnessed a major land war inside Europe directly involving a nuclear power. In desperation, Russia’s impaired and unhinged leader Vladimir Putin now talks trash about the likelihood of nuclear war. (Link: https://victorhanson.com/imagine-the-unimaginable/)

He was a senator and assistant attorney general representing the Commonwealth of Virginia. Garrett served in the U.S. Army and was based in the Balkans during the 1990s.

Congressman Garrett is also bringing to the forefront the plight of the 70 million people and hundreds of millions more around the world facing persecution through the new documentary series “Exile.” The project is a collaborative endeavor with Matt Whitworth—the documentary filmmaker known for HBO's "The Swamp."
