Ep. 236 - The Truth About the 5,000-Year Leap
Wednesday Mar 01, 2023
Wednesday Mar 01, 2023
In this episode, we summarize Cleon Skousen’s book, The 5,000-Year Leap, 28 Ideas That Changed the World.
Coming off the heels of the previous episode, where I outlined how the communist agenda for America has all but come true, I needed a little pick-me-up. I needed to be reminded of the gift the founding generation gave the world.
Stick around to the end of the episode where I offer a solution on how to save America from itself.

Ep. 198 - The Truth About What is NOT in the Constitution
Wednesday May 11, 2022
Wednesday May 11, 2022
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. 192 - A Practical Guide to State Secession
Wednesday Mar 23, 2022
Wednesday Mar 23, 2022
Consider this episode an open thread to get the conversation started about state secession.
The truth is. . . THE JIG IS UP! The only thing that can save America from itself is for some states to secede from the union. The national leadership in the United States behaves like a Doomsday Cult set on destroying the country. "The Normals" are left in an abusive relationship with a domineering spouse (the federal government). We have irreconcilable differences and a divorce is necessary.

Ep. 127 - The Truth About Walter E. Williams
Tuesday Dec 15, 2020
Tuesday Dec 15, 2020
When Walter E. Williams passed away last week, the world lost a giant intellectual, prolific columnist, humorist, economist and preacher of the truth about free markets and the United States Constitution. He was a master communicator with an uncanny ability to make complex topics and theories understandable. Throughout his life, he demonstrated unwavering courage to stand up and tell the truth starting with his challenge of the U.S. Army and President John F. Kennedy over racial discrimination in the military while holding the lowly rank of Private!
He spent decades teaching economics at George Mason University and, along the way, blessed us with volumes of logic and common sense - some of which I share with you in this episode.

The purpose of this episode is, not only to summarize Ben Shapiro's book, How to Destroy America in Three Easy Steps, but to help you recognize the agenda and tactics used by the Disintegrationists - as Shapiro calls those who wish to tear down America.
Going forward, I hope that you consume the news with this information in mind. Identify the schemes deployed by these folks for what they are and understand their motivations.

Ep. 110 - The Truth About How to Save America from Itself
Monday Aug 10, 2020
Monday Aug 10, 2020
If you asked 100 people if they think America is healthy culturally, financially, spiritually, educationally, racially, or constitutionally, I am willing to bet a large majority would respond in the negative.
America is broken and the only thing that can save it (from itself) is state secession.
In this episode I build the case for secession:
The reasons it is necessary
Why secession is good
Refute most of the common objections to secession
Address how it could be accomplished in the 21st century
Please comment below and help build the secession movement.

In Episode #87, I introduced you to the concept of secession. We reviewed current and past secession movements and offered three reasons it is necessary AND good - decentralization, self-determination and competition. In this episode, I discuss the fourth reason secession is desirable - the idea that smaller is better. After that, we will discuss how secession is justified and dispel the most common objections to the concept of secession.

Saturday Jan 11, 2020
Is it just me or is anyone else bothered when you hear politicians and talking heads refer to America as democracy? The “D-word” is thrown around so often by so many that I don’t think many people bat an eye when they hear it.
What is the truth about democracy in America?

Ep. 38 - The Truth About the Democratic Party
Saturday Mar 23, 2019
Saturday Mar 23, 2019
In this episode we examine the historical record of the national Democratic Party and then fast-forward to present day and uncover the real motivations behind their radical agenda.
Why do they take such hard line positions on policies like abortion, illegal immigration, welfare, gay marriage, socialized medicine, guns control, climate change, minimum wage and higher taxes? Why do they advocate for socialism? None of these policies have the support of the majority of Americans yet they are all a prominent fixture in the platform that the national Democratic Party.
