Dr. Thompson is a professor of political science, a scholar of the American Founding, and an unapologetic defender of capitalism as the only truly moral social system. He has held prestigious academic fellowships at Princeton, Harvard, and the University of London. His published works include America’s Revolutionary Mind, Neoconservatism: An Obituary for an Idea, John Adams and the Spirit of Liberty, and What America Is. We dig into the philosophical roots of free markets, the cultural decay threatening American strength, and why capitalism is not just an economic system—but a national security imperative. This is a timely and important conversation for anyone concerned with the future of American freedom and global stability.
