Ep. 254 - The Truth About Affirmative Action and the Fourteenth Amendment

In this episode we examine the Fourteenth Amendment in light of the recent Supreme Court affirmative action case. Rather than following the lead of the majority, we look at it through the lens of what the writers and ratifiers of that amendment meant and said at the time of ratification.
Then, for fun, we walk through the laughable dissenting opinions as well as briefly examine the Left's reaction to the opinion and offer some real solutions to the problem.

Ep. 228 – The Truth About the Twitter Files – The First Tranche

The story told by the Twitter Files is one of the biggest scandals in American history and many of you have never heard about it!
Your First Amendment right of free speech is under assault. The federal government, in direct opposition to the words of the First Amendment, have been colluding with Big Tech for years to silence dissent. Now we have the internal documents from Twitter to prove what we already knew.

Ep. 213 - The Truth About August 2022 - FBI Corruption Confirmed

August 2022 will be remembered as the month it was confirmed that the FBI is nothing more than a corrupt, enforcement arm of the doomsday cult, formerly known as the Democratic Party.
Additional news from the month include: the end of Covid, the continued recession and stagflation and the Left's desire that we eat bugs.

Ep. 204 - The Truth About the Absolute Nature of the Second Amendment

Despite what members of the doomsday cult formerly known as the Democratic Party say and despite what members of the alphabet soup, conspiracy media say, the Second Amendment is absolutely absolute!
If the Second Amendment did not exist, Americans would still have the natural right to keep and bear arms. No government has the right to infringe on a natural right. Unlike most other countries, in the United States, we are fortunate enough to have that fact enshrined in our nation’s founding document.

Ep. 198 - The Truth About What is NOT in the Constitution

What powers are granted by the United States Constitution to the federal government? Not much!
What is NOT in the Constitution? A lot! Things such as:
Privacy, abortion, assault weapons, old age pensions, welfare programs or infrastructure spending! There is no mention of a central bank - paper currency or digital currency, student loans or mortgages! There’s nothing about education, healthcare or health insurance, corporate bailouts, the environment or carbon dioxide emissions! Nothing about energy, labor laws, occupational safety, transportation, food, pharmaceuticals, disease control or farm subsidies! You won’t find homeland security, the CIA, the NSA, consumer protection, election laws, border security, regulating financial companies or the FDIC!
In this episode we demonstrate the absurdity and unconstitutionality of the federal government's never-ending power grab and examine the proper role it should play in society if it were put back in its small and extremely limited, constitutional sandbox.

Ep. 171 - The Truth About the Supremacy of Federal Law

During a recent press briefing, the White House press secretary said this with a straight face: “Federal law overrides state law.”
In this short episode I put to rest (once and for all) the lie that federal law has supremacy over state law.

Ep.146 - The Truth About Biden’s Gun Show Loophole Statement

Resident Biden gave a brief address in the Rose Garden in early April, 2021 regarding his Executive Orders on gun control. In that short address, he made at least six clearly false statements or outright lies.
In this episode we focus our attention on one particularly misleading statement about gun show loopholes and use it as a lesson to demonstrate how the Left manipulates their voters and the media through the use of language.
It's the perfect storm! A voter base uninterested in the truth; just searching for bias confirmation. A political party willing to lie and mislead. And a media willing to parrot the narrative.
If you control the language (and the media), you can control the narrative, which explains why the Democrats refuse to debate their policies on their merits.

Ep. 137 - The Truth About Post-Constitutional America

The Constitution served as the glue that held the United States together for over two hundred years. Unfortunately, over the last century, we have seen a steady erosion of the principles and rules of the game captured in that document. So much so that we now live in a post-constitutional country where the document is all but ignored or it is bastardized to fit the needs of the ruling class.
The sheer size of the federal government and the power it wields far exceeds anything the founding generation could ever have imagined. For those who love the country, this is a sad revelation. For those who love power, control and influence, they can claim victory.

Ep. 120 - The Truth About the Tenth Amendment

In this episode we examine the American experiment through the lens of the Tenth Amendment which Thomas Jefferson called the foundation of the Constitution.
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.
That means, the federal government is only authorized to do those few things that have been delegated to it. It is my contention that, if the federal government was still in its tiny, little sandbox created for it by the Constitution, this country would thrive. Unfortunately the federal leviathan has not only outgrown its sandbox but has taken over the entire yard, neighborhood, state, country!
The consequences of the overreach are largely unseen yet substantial. The corruption, the failure of one-size-fits-all policies, the influence peddling - all of it acts as a restraint on the American system of free markets, entrepreneurism, freedom and liberty. Instead we allow a handful of powerful people in D.C. and the media to divide us into a series of special interest groups who fight and bicker with each other. All the while the leviathan continues to grow and grow and grow with the only end in sight being the collapse of the U.S. dollar and the U.S. economy, which come to think of it, might have been the plan all along.
