Thank you all for your presence today. We are eager to engage in a substantive dialogue regarding national security matters, rather than merely participating in a rally. This underscores the significance of issues such as border security, relations with China, and the pursuit of energy independence.
In relation to border security, I recently traveled to Arizona alongside several congressional candidates, where we underscored the necessity for effective leadership across all levels to tackle crime and optimize resource distribution. Our discussions also addressed the issue of intellectual property theft by China and the measures implemented during the Trump administration to combat this through more stringent regulations on Chinese students.
The panel emphasized the critical need to support Israel, confront the rising tide of anti-Semitism, and draw lessons from the withdrawal from Afghanistan, which led to devastating losses and enduring security challenges. As we move forward, it is imperative that we concentrate on leadership and policies that enhance national security, safeguard American interests, and promote energy independence.
