Breakthrough Ideas 6th Annual Dinner

The Communist Threat to America

What You Need to Know About the Soft Takeover of American Sovereignty

America faces a growing threat that can’t be ignored—and it isn’t always obvious. The influence of Communist China and the Democrat Socialists of America is reaching deeper into our economy, our institutions, our communities, and our national security.

Join Breakthrough with Jeanne Ives for our 6th Annual Dinner for a powerful evening examining the forces challenging American sovereignty and what every American needs to know about the soft takeover of America.

Featuring:

Gordon Chang — Renowned author, commentator, and expert on Communist China, geopolitics, and the growing threat posed by the Chinese Communist Party.

Dan Proft — Moderator and host of Chicago’s Morning Answer radio program, bringing his trademark insight and straight talk to this critical conversation.

Jeanne Ives — Master of Ceremonies and founder of Breakthrough, leading an evening focused on defending American freedom, sovereignty, and self-government.

This is more than a dinner. It’s a wake-up call.

Come prepared for an engaging, provocative evening of conversation about Communist China, the erosion of American sovereignty, and the battle for the future of our country.
