About this episode
A truck driven into a synagogue with 140 kids inside. An ISIS supporter in Virginia. Homemade bombs at a New York protest. Crime in America just hit a 125-year low. In the same period, victims of terror attacks surged 343%. Navy SEAL, CIA-trained intelligence officer, and performance coach David Rutherford breaks down what he calls "The New Threat Paradigm" — and what you need to do about it. David draws on 15+ years in special operations, Blackwater, and the Central Intelligence Agency to walk through the data, the geopolitical drivers, the recent Congressional testimony from Tulsi Gabbard, John Ratcliffe, Kash Patel, and SOCOM leadership — and gives you a personal action framework built from how operators actually assess and respond to threats.
