Ep. 329 - The Truth About 1913

Six years ago, Congressman Thomas Massie posted a Tweet nominating 1913 as the worst year ever for American government due to the ratification of the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Amendments and the establishment of the Federal Reserve.
In this episode, we evaluate Massie's claim by examining all three of these creations.

QUICK RANT - State Secession

America is heading toward a cliff of self-destruction and given the fact that one of the two major political parties has its foot on the accelerator and the other has no interest is applying the brake, the individual states need to start making plans for their own self-preservation.
Mass state secession is the only thing that can save America from itself.

Ep. 328 - The Truth About Trump's Tone

A popular refrain of Trump detractors (and some supporters) is to reference his tone; his rhetoric; his perceived aggressive nature. 
In this episode we use this as the foundation to examine how this line of thinking handicaps Trump detractors by erecting a psychological blinder to reality. We also take the occasion to teach and encourage critical thinking skills while covering some current events.

Ep. 327 - The Truth About How to End the Fed

One of the cornerstone issues for libertarians is to end the Federal Reserve - End the Fed!
We can point out that the Fed is a force for evil. We can provide evidence of its destructive impact on the economy, both domestically and globally. But the one thing we fail to explain is the mechanics behind how to end the Fed.
In this episode, we walk through an article published on Mises.org by Alex Younger who explains how, over a period of time, the Federal Reserve can die a natural death without risking significant damage to the global financial system.

Ep. 326 - The Truth About Rogue Judges and Lysander Spooner

This episode began as a dedication to Lysander Spooner.
The more I learned about him, the more relevant he appeared to the current constitutional crisis facing the nation which involves partisan, hack, Democrat, activist federal, circuit court judges who are violating President Trump's Article II powers by anointing themselves commander-in-chief, chief magistrate and chief executive by issuing nationwide restraining orders against numerous Trump executive actions.
Using Spooner's writings as the foundation, we provide a quick refresher course on the Constitution and offer some constitutionally-sound methods that should be employed to end this constitutional crisis once and for all.

Ep. 325 - The Truth About Julian Assange - Part II

In June 2024, Julian Assange entered into a plea deal with the U.S. Department of Justice pleading guilty to one espionage charge in exchange for a five-year sentence, which the U.S. agreed had already been served on remand in a UK prison.
This ended a fourteen-year period of hell for Assange for the crime of practicing journalism.
This episode is a recap of the saga of Julian Assange.

Ep. 324 - The Truth About the Pop-up, Non-Profit Grift

In this episode, we examine the Democrats' latest grift to loot the U.S. Treasury. 
It's accomplished through a series of NGOs and non-profits run by well-connected members of that party, their family members, friends and other adjacents. If this grift is thoroughly investigated, it will most likely implicate plenty of corrupt Republicans but, as of today, it's the Dems who have been implicated.
It will inevitably be remembered as the largest money-laundering operation in history.
The takeaway from this is: Washington, D.C. is beyond reform. Nothing ever changes for the good in America because our political class has evolved into a corrupt oligarchy that gets what's theirs and leaves the country worse off decade after decade.
The pop-up, non-profit grift may be the last nail in the nation's coffin.

Ep. 323 - The Truth About USAID

What began as an agency designed to provide economic development and humanitarian assistance, has turned into an incestuous, international, money-laundering, slush fund used to perpetrate regime change all over the world while enriching hundreds. . . if not thousands of so-called non-profits, NGOs, media outlets, and the politically connected individuals associated with them.

Ep. 322 - The Truth About Trump's Tariffs

It is true that tariffs are a tax on consumers!
It is also true that previous efforts by American Presidents to impose tariffs have had disastrous effects on the United States' economy.
