Summary

On this episode of Chicks on the Right, we’re hanging out with Newsmax’s Carl Higbie—former Navy SEAL and all-around straight shooter. He shares how he knew he wanted to be a SEAL as a kid, what it was really like in the military, and how the red tape and politics eventually pushed him into media.

We dig into the challenges facing military recruitment, the growing influence of woke politics in the ranks, and what inspired Carl to write not just one, but FIVE books. The conversation also covers how gender identity debates intersect with national defense, the role Pete Hegseth and recent Supreme Court rulings might play, the cultural pushback against traditional masculinity, and the buzz around a potential Trump military parade.
