Doug Casey and Matt Smith Interview Special Guest: Colonel Douglas Macgregor (Video)
In this 12 August 2026 punlished video, hosts Doug Casey and Matt Smith talk with Colonel. Douglas MacGregor who argues there are no existential military threats to the United States from China or Russia, contending the most serious dangers come from instability and organized crime in Mexico and the Caribbean Basin, weakened social cohesion, mass migration, and loss of American identity. He criticizes U.S. and NATO leadership over Ukraine, predicts Russia will ultimately defeat Ukraine, and calls Ukraine a “zombie state,” while disputing portrayals of Putin as Hitler.
Colonel MacGregor says defending U.S. borders and reducing overseas “forward presence” are essential in an age of precision missiles, and warns financial manipulation is postponing an inevitable economic reckoning driven by massive public and private debt. He claims the U.S. government is acting against Americans’ interests, describes “Israel first” influence in Washington, and expects renewed action against Iran that could exhaust remaining U.S. capacity, while forecasting major geopolitical realignments in the Middle East.
