Inside the Wire: The Crisis Nobody Will Name | Wade Miller on The Bill Walton Show | Part 1 of 3

The Crisis Nobody Will Name — Wade Miller | Inside the Wire, Pt. 1

A Marine with three combat deployments explains why the war at home worries him more than Iraq ever did.

In this explosive first part of Inside the Wire, Bill Walton sits down with Wade Miller, Marine combat veteran and president of the Center for Renewing America, to confront what Bill calls America’s “airless age” — a time when people are losing the ability to know what’s real, who to trust, and what they are living for.

Miller has fought in shooting wars overseas. But he tells Bill the battle that worries him most is here at home: a civilizational crisis unfolding inside America’s institutions, culture, borders, and bureaucracy.

Together, Bill and Wade trace the forces reshaping the West — from ideological radicalism and failed assimilation to the long march through the institutions, DEI embedded inside government, and the cultural confusion that has left many Americans unable to name the threat in front of them.

This is not a conversation about ordinary politics. It is about whether Western civilization still has the confidence to defend itself.

The Bill Walton Show is produced by Resolute Protector Foundation.
