Violence Is Escalating | Caleb Gilbert | Ep. 431

<p>Violence against public figures, politicians, and high-profile individuals is no longer rare or isolated — it's increasing, accelerating, and becoming more unpredictable. Threat reporting, attempted attacks, and successful assaults on protectees have risen sharply over the last several years, driven by political polarization, online radicalization, and the ease with which individuals can move from grievance to action. From lawmakers and candidates to commentators and executives, the modern threat environment is broader, faster, and far less controllable than most people understand.</p> <p>In this episode, I sit down with Caleb Gilbert, founder of White Glove Protection Group, to break down the reality of personal protection — including where it works, where it fails, and why it's often misunderstood. We take a hard look at the mechanics of real-world security failures, including a detailed discussion of the protection dynamics surrounding the Charlie Kirk attack site, and why even professional protective details can be overwhelmed. We also cover what individuals can realistically do to improve their own personal security in an increasingly hostile environment — without illusions, guarantees, or false confidence.</p> <p>White Glove Protection Group: <a href="https://whitegloveprotection.com/">https://whitegloveprotection.com/</a></p> <p> </p> <p>Today's Sponsors: </p> <p>Black Rifle Coffee:</p> <p><a href="https://www.blackriflecoffee.com">https://www.blackriflecoffee.com</a></p> <p>Brunt:</p> <p>Get $10 Off at BRUNT with code "clearedhot" at <a href="https://www.bruntworkwear.com/clearedhot">https://www.bruntworkwear.com/clearedhot</a> </p> <p> </p>
