New Episode with Tom Lee on Friday March 6th at 8 am

In this powerful episode of the Liberty & Gun Rights Podcast, host James Moffitt sits down with Texas sheriff’s sergeant and author Tom Lee, whose story pulls back the curtain on the unseen cost of life behind the badge. After years responding to suicides, child deaths, violent confrontations, and the quiet aftermath no academy prepares you for, Tom’s breaking point came in 2019 when he was shot in the face with a crossbow during a welfare check — and survived.

But as Tom explains, that moment didn’t end his career. It exposed what the job had already been doing to him for years.

Tom speaks with raw honesty about cumulative trauma, PTSD, moral injury, leadership under pressure, and the faith that carried him through the darkest seasons. He shares why so many first responders suffer in silence, what real resilience looks like, and why acknowledging the human cost of service is essential for the future of law enforcement.

This conversation isn’t about heroics. It’s about the cost — and the hope on the other side of it.
