America First Global CEO Gentry Beach on Michigan’s Big Show: Iran, Global Realignment, and Rebuilding American Supply Chains

America First Global Chairman and CEO Gentry Beach joined Michael Patrick Shiels on Michigan’s Big Show to discuss the rapidly shifting geopolitical landscape and what it means for American leadership.

On Iran, Beach was direct. He pointed to Operation Epic Fury and said the situation may be nearing a tipping point, with the Iranian people positioned to reclaim control. He credited President Trump for taking decisive action where previous administrations hesitated.

On Russia, Beach sees a geopolitical realignment taking shape. Changing economic and strategic interests, he argued, could move Russia toward closer cooperation with the United States in a world that looks very different from the Cold War era.

On China, Beach emphasized the need for the United States to rebuild its economic independence. For decades, America outsourced supply chains and became heavily dependent on Chinese-controlled critical minerals and manufacturing. That dynamic, he said, must change.

Beach’s outlook was ultimately optimistic. A more stable and prosperous Middle East is possible—and American economic leadership will play a central role in shaping that future.
