If you've been following the financial news lately, you may have noticed something unusual: the bond market is getting a lot of attention.After a year of tariff shocks, interest-rate whiplash, tax policy changes and persistent questions about inflation and the national debt, bonds have moved from the financial pages into the broader economic conversation. And whenever markets get nervous about where the economy, inflation or government borrowing may be headed, attention tends to turn pretty quickly to the bond market.Because this isn't just Wall Street inside baseball.The bond market influences the interest rate on your mortgage. It influences how much the federal government pays to borrow money. It affects companies trying to finance everything from infrastructure to AI data centers. And it can offer some important clues about how investors are feeling about inflation, growth, recession risk and even the creditworthiness of the United States.So perhaps it's time we understood bonds a little better.And I have to admit, after more than a decade of hosting So Money, I don't think we've ever dedicated an entire episode to them.Today, we are fixing that.My guest is Robin Wigglesworth, one of the financial journalists who has been covering these markets up close for years. Robin is an editor at the Financial Times, where he leads FT Alphaville, its influential markets and finance blog. He's also the author of Trillions, his acclaimed history of the index-fund revolution and the rise of passive investing and ETFs.His new book is called A Fabulous Debt: The Epic Story of How Bonds Built the Modern World, and it comes out September 22.And I should emphasize: this is not a book about how to build a bond portfolio.Robin has written essentially a people's history of the bond market — and somehow made bonds genuinely entertaining. The story begins in Venice in 1171, takes us through Amsterdam and the development of modern finance, and brings us to America and Alexander Hamilton, whose decisions about government debt helped establish the creditworthiness of the young United States.Robin's larger argument is that we tend to think the stock market is the star of the financial system, when really the bond market is the foundation underneath it. In fact, as he tells me in our conversation, bonds are the “bedrock that the entire house rests upon.”We talk about what the 10-year Treasury yield can tell you about the economy — and why it matters more to mortgage rates than many people realize. We talk about America's nearly $40 trillion national debt and the big question: At what point does all of this borrowing actually become a problem?We also get into something I found fascinating: bonds have quietly financed some of the biggest transformations in modern history. Railroads. Canals. Telecommunications. The internet. And now, potentially, the enormous buildout of artificial intelligence.There are also fraudsters, scoundrels and some truly wild financial schemes along the way — including one man who essentially invented an entire country so he could sell its bondsLearn more about Farnoosh's upcoming literary workshop Book to Brand.

In 1794, thousands of federalized militia marched into western Pennsylvania to put down an uprising by American farmers. Their crime? Making whiskey and refusing to pay a federal tax on it.The Whiskey Rebellion was the first major test of the new federal government's authority, and George Washington personally accompanied the troops sent to suppress it. But why did a tax on whiskey bring the young United States so close to civil war?It's another one of the Stories of Appalachia.Subscribe to the Stories podcast for more stories about the people, places, and events that shaped Appalachia.Thanks for listening!

The homeowners association of Four Seasons Resorts Nevis filed a lawsuit against Nevis Peak Holdings on Tuesday, August 11 in Delaware Chancery Court. Nevis Peak owns the luxury resort and surrounding property, which sits at the base of a volcanic mountain in Pinney's Beach, a roughly three-mile stretch of beach on the Caribbean island—just north of Charlestown, Alexander Hamilton's birthplace. Nevis Peak is owned by Cascade, the family office of Bill Gates, which bought the resort a decade ago. As of January 2022, Cascade also owns 71.25% of the Four Seasons, according to the suit. While Four Seasons manages the property, it wasn't named as a defendant in the suit. He's owned the Four Seasons with Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Alsaud of Saudi Arabia, whose Kingdom Holding has a 23.75% stake, since 2007. According to the suit, each homeowner paid $100,000 to get in the door at Four Seasons Resort Nevis, the luxury Caribbean island resort long reported as a quiet retreat for such celebrities as Oprah Winfrey, Meryl Streep and Justin Trudeau. They then pay upwards of $13,000 a year to keep using the place, plus a management fee of 25% on any bills for work the resort does for them and another 15% for major construction.

SONS of LIBERTY Radio with Bradlee Dean Part 1: Mike Lindell Joins Bradlee Dean Live Part 2: Anyone Seeing The Correlation? Media Wars, Minnesota Politics, and a Biblical Call to Confront the Nation's Crises Minnesota Gubernatorial Campaign and Media Disputes A major portion of the episode centers on an extended interview with Mike Lindell about his campaign for governor of Minnesota. The host says he invited Lindell back because he believes mainstream and local media outlets are misrepresenting the candidate. Lindell describes opposition from Republican establishment figures, discusses Lisa Demuth and Kendall Qualls, and says he believes he is leading in legitimate polling. He also criticizes the Star Tribune and argues that betting-market activity has been presented in ways that make Demuth look stronger than she is. The host repeatedly frames the interview as an opportunity for Lindell to answer accusations directly. Throughout the exchange, allegations and polling claims are presented as statements by Lindell and the host, not independently verified facts. Campaign Allegations, Pillows, Amnesty, and Residency Lindell addresses several controversies that he says have been used against his campaign. He explains that small pillows distributed at parades cost $4.90 each and says a campaign-law complaint misrepresented their value and potential consequences. He then rejects reports that he supports amnesty, saying a six-month proposal involved identifying and fingerprinting people already in Minnesota rather than granting legal status. Lindell also discusses his Minnesota residency, saying he moved his tax status, obtained a Minnesota license, and registered to vote in 2025. He accuses the Star Tribune and party officials of raising doubts about his eligibility despite documentation he says proves residency. The host responds by asking whether Lindell has considered legal action for defamation or malicious conduct. Trump Endorsement and Governing Priorities The interview also covers Donald Trump's endorsement, which Lindell says has no strings attached and has substantially helped his campaign. Lindell describes a long personal relationship with Trump and says they exchange perspectives rather than operating through a one-way chain of command. He argues that direct access to the president and other governors would benefit Minnesota if he wins office. Asked about data centers and surveillance cameras, he says he is currently opposed but would remain open to contrary evidence and would communicate transparently with the public. He also criticizes wind projects and raises environmental concerns. On alleged fraud involving Minnesota officials, Lindell says he intends to pursue investigations and accountability if elected. Biblical Worldview, Constitutional Government, and Public Action Across both portions of the program, the host connects American government to a Christian biblical worldview and repeatedly argues that the Constitution, founding principles, and Scripture function as an instruction manual for lawful government. The episode includes historical quotations attributed to figures such as Alexander Hamilton, Benjamin Rush, Benjamin Franklin, and Harry S. Truman. The host says citizens and churches have departed from those principles and repeatedly urges listeners to act rather than merely complain. Promotional segments reinforce the program's ministry identity, church services, events, fundraising, and related media outlets. The host also discusses censorship and claims that certain prominent conservative or media personalities function as controlled opposition. These religious, constitutional, and political interpretations are presented as the host's views. Abortion, Immigration, Islam, and the Host's Claimed Correlation The later portion of the episode develops the host's claimed connection between abortion, immigration, and national judgment. He describes abortion as murder, cites biblical passages, condemns political officials who support abortion rights, and argues that citizens who tolerate those policies share responsibility. He then links that theme to immigration and Islam, portraying Muslim immigration as an organized threat to American law and sovereignty. Embedded clips are used to illustrate statements about Sharia law, political organizing, Muslim Brotherhood strategy, schools, and elected officials. The host makes sweeping and hostile claims about Muslims and also uses derogatory language toward LGBTQ people while framing his statements as biblical and constitutional warnings. The transcript preserves those statements as the speaker's claims without treating them as established fact. Censorship Claims, Embedded Clips, and Unresolved Transcript Damage The host repeatedly says his speech is being censored or throttled while other high-profile personalities receive preferential treatment. He discusses Dennis Prager, Alex Jones, Andrew Tate, Russell Brand, Elon Musk, and others, making a variety of allegations about their conduct or influence. The program also plays multiple prerecorded clips, including a Seattle interview concerning alleged fraud, clips of Muslim speakers, a narrator discussing the Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR, and later political/news footage concerning Michigan and New York. Several of these clips contain numerical, historical, criminal, or organizational claims that the episode does not independently substantiate. Near the end, the automated transcript breaks down badly, including long nonsensical repetitions, after which some readable content resumes. Those corrupted passages and uncertain names are explicitly flagged in the corrected transcript rather than reconstructed from guesswork.

In this Federalist Society America 250 series, experts analyze modern legal and policy debates through the lens of the Founding generation. The Founders gave us the tools to answer many contemporary questions; join us as we explore those answers.In Federalist 23, Alexander Hamilton identified the common defense and the preservation of peace against external attacks as two of the principal purposes served by union. The Constitution that union adopted divides the power to declare war—vested in Congress—and the power to direct war—vested in the President as Commander in Chief. But what does it say about national security more broadly? The Founders were not without reservation about the risks of concentrating the means of defense, with James Madison warning the Constitutional Convention that a “standing military force, with an overgrown Executive will not long be safe companions to liberty.” It was also clear from the start, however, that functions like intelligence gathering belonged more naturally to the executive, whose institutional character supported the necessary secrecy and dispatch.This webinar will explore how the Founders understood national security power beyond the battlefield, how closely subsequent practice tracked their design, and whether today’s allocation of powers serves both the nation's security and its liberty.Featuring:Dr. Alberto Coll, Director, Global Engagement; Vincent de Paul Professor of Law, DePaul University College of LawProf. Matthew Waxman, Liviu Librescu Professor of Law, Columbia School of LawProf. John Yoo, Emanuel S. Heller Professor of Law, University of California at Berkeley; Senior Research Fellow, School of Civic Leadership, Civitas Institute, University of Texas at Austin; Nonresident Senior Fellow, American Enterprise Institute(Moderator) Molly Nixon, Senior Fellow in Executive Power, Cato Institute

In the spring of 1783, with the Revolution all but won, the most dangerous enemy of the United States was its own army. Unpaid for years, cheated of their promised pensions, the officers camped at Newburgh, New York, had every reason to be furious — and an anonymous letter, circulating hut to hut, told them the time for begging was over. A faction of politicians in Philadelphia, led by Alexander Hamilton, saw in that fury a weapon they could use to force a helpless Congress into line. Their cause was just. Their argument was strong. And it led straight to the edge of a military coup. This is the story of the Newburgh Conspiracy — the crown George Washington had already refused, the rival general willing to hold the match, and the afternoon in a hall called the Temple when General Washington answered a righteous, well-armed anger not with force but with a pair of spectacles and a few tender words, and stopped the thing cold. It is the moment America stood at the line that has swallowed almost every republic in history, and did not cross it. Caesar crossed it. Cromwell crossed it. Why didn't General Washington?

To celebrate our nation's 250th birthday, we gathered in front of a lovely audience near Madison WI to discuss Federalist Papers 70, 78, 39, 54, 10 by Alexander Hamilton and James Madison from 1787-1788, Anti-Federalist Papers 78-80 (aka Brutus 11 and 15), and Frederick Douglass' Fourth of July Speech (1852). Is the American experiment working out as planned? We talk about the Founders' arguments regarding the unitary executive, the independence of the judiciary, factionalism, the 3/5 compromise for representing slaves, and finally, whether slavery corrupted the whole thing.

When most people hear the name Alexander Hamilton, they probably think of the Broadway musical. But Hamilton's greatest legacy wasn't a Tony Award-winning production. It was helping build the financial foundation of the United States. Today on BullCast, we're not throwing away our shot to uncover how America's first Secretary of the Treasury laid the groundwork for our banking system, national credit, and economy, and why his influence can still be felt more than 230 years later.

In January 1800, Elma Sands's dead body was found in a New York City well. The case has captivated people ever since, not least because in the resulting trial, defendant Levi Weeks was represented by Alexander Hamilton, Aaron Burr, and a future Supreme Court justice. The Girl from Greenwich Street: A Novel of Hamilton, Burr and America's First Murder Trial is a historical fiction novel by Lauren Willig. On this episode of the Modern Law Library, she explains how four years before their fatal duel, Hamilton and Burr came to be co-counsels on a murder case. "The New York Bar was perishingly small in 1800. And in fact, Burr and Hamilton were co-counsel on a complex commercial litigation at the exact time," says Willig. "So people were constantly–it's like swing your partners, do-si-do. They were always working together, working against each other. It was just the way the bar worked in 1800." The defendant, Levi Weeks, lived in the same boarding house as Sands, a hatmaker whose cousin owned the house. The prosecution contended that Weeks had seduced Sands with a promise of marriage, then dumped her body in the Manhattan Well. His trial was the first murder trial in America to have a court transcript, thanks to a clerk who'd recently learned shorthand. This transcript gave Willig a wealth of witness testimony to draw on when fleshing out her characters. "One of the things that drove me nuts when I was researching this case was how little attention has been expended over the years in trying to figure out anything about Elma Sands, the murdered woman," Willig tells Rawles. "There are some big personalities and really big names involved in the trial itself. And people are so eager to get into the courtroom with Hamilton and Burr that they just trample over Elma. And she gets flattened into one of two archetypes. Either she's the innocent young maiden who's been seduced and betrayed, which is how the prosecution portrays her in the trial, or she's a melancholy laudanum-addicted nymphomaniac, which is how the defense tries to portray her." "And I think the reality of Elma was a lot more complicated than those flat depictions would have us believe." Willig and Rawles also discuss her time at Harvard Law, where she signed a contract to write her popular Pink Carnation series as a 1L, and then her time at Cravath, Swain & Moore, trying to balance being a published romance writer and lawyer. "I had to make a choice, try to continue to juggle or go all in on being an author. And I left Cravath and my partner mentor came up to me and said, 'Well, what took you so long? I would've left sooner.' "  Subscribe to Modern Law Library: https://play.megaphone.fm/93wtgxnatpsubsdxwklzwq

In this week's episode of The Learning Curve, co-hosts retired Minnesota Supreme Court Justice Barry Anderson and Massachusetts state champion U.S. history and civics teacher Kelley Brown speak with Alison LaCroix, the Newton Reid Professor of Law at the University of Chicago, about the constitutional foundations of American federalism. Drawing on her book, The Ideological Origins of American Federalism, Prof. LaCroix explores the ancient Greek and Roman, the Enlightenment, and British Common Law models of federalism that so powerfully influenced Anglo-American constitutional thought. She discusses the Revolutionary and Founding generations' understanding of the natural law, the rights of colonies, and how national and state authority should be divided in a modern commercial republic, including the constitutional ideas of the American statesmen James Otis, John Adams, James Madison, and Alexander Hamilton. Then, Prof. LaCroix provides an overview of her recent book The Interbellum Constitution: Union, Commerce, and Slavery in the Age of Federalisms. She examines the enduring historical and legal influences of the Marshall Court; Jeffersonian Supreme Court Justice William Johnson; Gibbons v. Ogden; and Cherokee Nation v. Georgia, on the various modes of early-19th century American federalism. Prof. LaCroix closes with a reading from The Interbellum Constitution.

Were the foundations of American governance engineered to protect the wealthy? Harvard Law professor Michael Klarman argues that the US Constitution was actually a counter-revolutionary coup to constrain democracy rather than protect it.  This episode explores how debt, taxes, and money influenced the drafting of America's founding document. And whether a wealthy elite bypassed democratic institutions to secure their own financial interests and reduce populist power. Connect with us:

What would the Founding Fathers think of America today? That question sparked historian and novelist Johanna Neuman's new book, Trump's Superpower, in which George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, and other founders — plus revolutionary-era writer Mercy Otis Warren — are summoned back to earth for America's 250th birthday and dropped into today's culture wars. Neuman joins Newt Gingrich to discuss the novel's premise, her argument that reclaiming the founders is President Trump's greatest political strength, and why she believes the Founding Fathers are trending again in American culture. The conversation also covers Neuman's remarkable journalism career — from covering the Reagan White House and Jim Baker's State Department to writing Gilded Suffragists, her award-winning history of the fashionable New York socialites who helped push women's suffrage over the finish line.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, the Democrat Party has developed a significant Israel and Jewish problem in roughly three years. It has rebranded itself as the champion of civil rights and liberties, though it actually promotes Marxist and socialist economic agendas—such as healthcare, schooling, and housing for all—framed as civil rights. Democrats now frequently run on anti-AIPAC, anti-Israel, anti-Jewish, and anti-Semitic platforms, with many being Islamists or Marxists, and little pushback from party leadership. Rahm Emanuel, a failed Chicago mayor who wants to run for President, subtly condemns Israel to court the radicals while claiming broader American support. But it's unlikely his Presidential aspirations will succeed because he's Jewish in a party with a Jewish problem. Also, the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) must be closely watched. DSA leaders openly discuss using Democratic ballot lines while pushing socialism, holding elected officials accountable by making and potentially breaking them, and rejecting moderate improvements in favor of working-class power and anti-imperialism. America has the best capitalist system, principles, and freedoms for delivering more prosperity than kings and queens had decades ago. Marxism, Islamism, and socialism produce poverty, violence, and oppression elsewhere. Later, Democrats seek to dismantle voting protections to enable and legalize fraud through measures like same-day registration, no voter ID, expanded voter harvesting, early voting weeks in advance, and allowing votes in any precinct. These changes make it impossible to properly vet voters while Democrats hypocritically require ID in their own facilities and create bureaucratic obstacles elsewhere in life. Afterward, no, Mark did not and has not turned on President Trump, despite what the fake news says. He remains a strong supporter and that will not change. The media narrative is utterly false. But they love to stir the pot and create controversy. There is no controversy. Finally, Will Chamberlain calls in and argues for Alexander Hamilton and sides firmly with him over Thomas Jefferson in their constitutional debate. He believes Hamilton held the right views on the Constitution, the necessary and proper clause, and the appropriate capabilities of government, including the need for tariffs to support manufacturing in the late 1790s and early 1800s.

Vice President JD Vance stated last week in a now infamous interview that the right needs less Milton Friedman and an economic approach more like Alexander Hamilton's. One can hope the VP simply doesn't understand Milton Friedman, but more than likely this “new right” mentality is trying to draw a line against the laissez faire to the economy favored by Friedman. But when various 21st century voices claim Alexander Hamilton as one of their own in seeking larger government control over the economy, do they actually understand Hamilton correctly? In this Capital Record episode, David is happy to defend Milton Friedman, but also happy to defend Alexander Hamilton, too -- against a revisionism that not only gets its economics wrong, but its history, too.

250 years on, we ask the question: would America even exist without Alexander Hamilton? We tell the story of the French-speaking outsider who created the dollar, faced down the states, and set the world's biggest economy in motion, before being murdered in one of history's strangest duels.

Mona Charen is joined by historian Lindsay Chervinsky—executive director of the George Washington Presidential Library—for the Bulwark Book Club, discussing her book Making the Presidency: John Adams and the Precedents That Forged the Republic. They cover Adams's besieged first days in office, a cabinet secretly loyal to Alexander Hamilton, the mob of 10,000 outside the president's house, the Alien and Sedition Acts, Hamilton's plot to change the rules of the election of 1800—and how Adams invented the peaceful transfer of power by simply going home.Buy the book: https://www.amazon.com/Making-Presidency-Precedents-Forged-Republic/dp/0197653847

Robert Morgan, Associate Pastor of World Outreach Church, shares that America's founding was deeply shaped by Scripture, reminding us that God still calls us to build our lives on the unchanging foundation of His Word. Long before the Declaration of Independence, pastors were preaching from Scripture and shaping the ideas that would become the foundation of a new nation. Seven key Bible verses played a remarkable role in American history, from Deuteronomy 1:13 inspiring the first colonial constitution to Acts 4:12 being spoken over a dying Alexander Hamilton. George Washington, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, and others drew deeply from the Bible in their leadership and decision-making. The Constitutional Convention itself was rescued from collapse when Franklin quoted Psalm 127:1 and called the delegates to prayer. These stories have been quietly removed from textbooks, but they are real and they matter. The same God who guided a fledgling nation through impossible odds is still at work today, and the question for each of us is whether we will build our lives on His foundation.Verse References:Deuteronomy 1:13 inspired pastor Thomas Hooker to argue that people have a God-given right to choose their own leaders. His ideas led directly to the Connecticut Constitution, the prototype for the U.S. Constitution.Romans 13:1 was the text of a 1750 sermon that John Adams later called the catechism of the revolution, preached by Jonathan Mayhew more than two decades before the first shots were fired.Psalm 35:1 was read aloud at the First Continental Congress at a moment of crisis, and the delegates felt as though it had been placed in the Bible just for them.Joel 3:19 was the text pastor Jonas Clark preached after seven members of his congregation were killed at Lexington Green, the opening battle of the Revolutionary War.1 Samuel 7:12 was the passage Washington's chaplain preached after the impossible victory at Yorktown, calling the soldiers to remember God's providential help throughout the war.Psalm 127:1 was quoted by Benjamin Franklin at the Constitutional Convention when the entire process was on the verge of collapse. Washington then led the delegates to a nearby church to pray, and they returned to produce the Constitution.Acts 4:12 were among the last words spoken over Alexander Hamilton as he lay dying after his duel with Aaron Burr. He humbly acknowledged his sin and trusted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior.

Welcome to a special edition of Last Call, which brings you the best of the week from the 3 Martini Lunch! However, as we mark 250 years today since the signing of the Declaration of Independence. In this edition, Jim and Greg will share their favorite depictions of the American Founding and our Founding Fathers .First, they head to television, as Jim showcases the popular miniseries George Washington in the 1980's and Greg points to a specific episode from one of the most popular sitcoms of that decade, Family Ties.Next, Jim recommends the HBO series focusing on a Founding Father who deserves more attention - John Adams. That series was based off a book by famed historian David McCullough. Greg highlights another McCullough book plus a two-volume set of novels that are good for any age.Then, Jim dives into the popularity of the Broadway hit Hamilton, which tells the story of Alexander Hamilton and so many others from that era. Greg gives a shout out to the Mel Gibson movie, The Patriot.Please visit our great sponsors:HomeServeFor 50% less your first year, go to https://HomeServe.com/Martini to find the plan that's right for you.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, what made the Declaration of Independence remarkable was that it was unprecedented in human history. The Declaration serves as the foundational basis for the nation and its Constitution, celebrating America's purpose. Critics like Presidents Obama and Woodrow Wilson have rejected or downplayed its first part on the Creator and principles, focusing instead on the list of grievances against the king to advance new ideologies; however, President Coolidge defended these enduring, universal ideas from Aristotle and Locke as perpetual, not to be dismissed. The Declaration's concise statement of American identity is incompatible with Marxism, Islamism, and fascism. Also, President Reagan was a great admirer and friend of Milton Friedman. He often sought his input on economic policies. During Reagan's presidency, there was massive economic growth, and he won two historic landslide elections, popular vote and electoral college, like no Republican before or since. Alexander Hamilton would grow increasingly supportive of a powerful central government. He would argue with Thomas Jefferson and James Madison on their approaches to government during the Washington administration and beyond. Hamilton argued for implied powers under the Constitution, which infuriated Jefferson and Madison. Hamilton claimed the necessary and proper clause was essentially a ticket to significantly expanding federal action. Later, Americanism and capitalism are philosophies enabling individual decision-making under the Declaration and Constitution, whereas ideologies are fanatical beliefs imposed society-wide regardless of consequences. Communism is defective and anti-human, misreading human nature by suppressing free will, reason, debate, and academic freedom in favor of brainwashing, conformity, and central control, as seen in places like Cuba, Nicaragua, North Korea, and China, and similarly with Islamists. Nationalists, populists, and Marxists attack the American experiment, economic system, and culture through emotion, slogans of equality, and activist government, showing overlaps reminiscent of 1930s fascists and communists.

How did America become the most prosperous nation in world history? Alexander Hamilton believed the new nation could break from the old model of conquest and seizure by building wealth through capitalism, invention, enterprise, and trade. In this episode, I explain Hamilton’s vision for American prosperity—and why the Founders’ economic genius made it possible to create more wealth without taking it from someone else.

When a 22-year-old woman living with relatives in a boarding house disappeared on Dec. 22, 1799, her loved ones didn't immediately worry. But when she still hadn't returned days later, all eyes turned to her lover, whom she'd supposedly been set to marry the last time she was seen alive. Levi Weeks came from a family with money, so his rich brother did something that was unheard of at this point in American history: He hired fancy lawyers. And that's how Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr ended up on the same side defending a man against murder charges in 1800. The case, referenced in Lin Manuel Miranda's award-winning musical "Hamilton," marks two firsts: The defense panel was America's first legal Dream Team, and the Weeks' case was the first recorded murder trial in the country's history.

Founding Fathers Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton fought for independence and they also fought each other. Jeffrey Rosen, former president and CEO of the National Constitution Center, joins host Krys Boyd to discuss the battles Jefferson and Hamilton had over concepts of liberty and freedom, where they landed on states' rights vs. a powerful federal government, and why their arguments still frame political battles we have today. His book is “Pursuit of Liberty: How Hamilton vs. Jefferson Ignited the Lasting Battle over Power in America.” Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit smokeempodcast.substack.comAre you proud of America? It can be a complicated question. Sarah and Nancy tackle the topic of patriotism and whether American is an unfinished experiment or a beautiful place unlike any other country. (But wait: Why can't it be both?) We talk about a Tom Hanks-produced Netflix series on the nation's founding, The American Experiment, which shows how much in-fighting and compromise were part of the country's creation. The series also introduces us to a peg-legged lady killer who wrote much of the Constitution (Gouverneur Morris) and confirms that Alexander Hamilton was, indeed, a hottie. Nancy just moved into her new pad, so you'll have to excuse a) the slight echo and b) the three (?) different times she had to leave to attend to a mover. Also discussed:* True or False: Sarah is a flower girl at Taylor Swift's wedding* True or False: Semiquincentennial is a real word* Happy graduation, Megan!* The downward mobility of college grads* That time Sarah doubled-down on becoming un-hireable* American Dream: Beautiful or unfinished?

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, Chief Justice Roberts improperly relied on English common law as a basis for birthright citizenship, despite the framers using it only as a guide and rejecting elements that conflicted with the U.S. system. The 14th Amendment and the preceding Civil Rights Act of 1866 were narrowly intended to grant full citizenship rights to freed Black slaves and their children amid post-Civil War resistance—not to address immigration or confer citizenship on children of illegal aliens. The opinion wrongly equates "jurisdiction" with mere physical presence, leading to illogical results like automatic citizenship for babies of illegal immigrants (who retain foreign allegiance) while creating unaddressed exceptions for diplomats, revealing a result-oriented, activist approach that rewrites history. Roberts and his Majority twisted the history of the 14th amendment and just constitutionalized birthright citizenship, knowing full well that our nation, like Europe, is facing a grave threat from within as a result, in part, of the intentional refusal of our government, when the Democrats are in power, to enforce immigration laws and, oppositely, facilitating the importation of aliens from all over the world without proper vetting. Also, the constitutional amendment process is rarely used. It requires two-thirds approval in both houses of Congress to propose language, followed by ratification by three-fourths (38) of the states—neither of which is feasible for issues like changing birthright citizenship. The Supreme Court has constitutionalized elements not originally in the Constitution, making reversal through amendments impractical. Instead, the effective path is filling Court vacancies with constitutionalists, as achieved in overturning Roe, without resorting to court packing. Later, Hans von Spakovsky calls in and explains that Roberts' opinion was appalling and a complete rewrite of American history, particularly regarding the 14th Amendment. He notes that Justices Alito and Thomas eviscerated it in separate dissents, highlighting that Roberts' historical account was inaccurate. He criticized Roberts' selective and distorting use of sources like Thomas Paine and Frederick Douglass, pointing out Thomas's observation that Douglass viewed Black Americans as citizens due to their equal allegiance to the U.S., unlike illegal aliens who owe allegiance to their native countries. Finally, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison favored limited central government, while Alexander Hamilton preferred a powerful, activist federal government with implied powers. Modern nationalist populists share this Hamilton big-government outlook with the left, which lacks clear constitutional principles and risks abuse, in contrast to true constitutional conservatism.

A divided Supreme Court ended its term by delivering a series of blockbuster rulings on birthright citizenship, transgendered participation in sports, and campaign finance restrictions, reshaping the nation's legal and political landscape. FOX News Sunday anchor Shannon Bream joins to discuss the intense 14th Amendment debate surrounding birthright citizenship, the court's decision allowing states to ban transgender athletes from female sports, and how the court's unique ideological splits impact the administration's major policy wins and losses. Bream also discusses the political implications of the High Court's historic decisions. As the nation prepares to celebrate its landmark 250th birthday, Americans are descending on the National Mall in D.C. to reflect on the vast history and the values that shaped our democratic experiment. But if the Founding Fathers stepped into 2026, what would they actually think of the country they built? Jeffrey Rosen, CEO Emeritus of the National Constitution Center, joins FOX's Lucas Tomlinson to discuss his book, Pursuit of Liberty, and how the clashing visions of Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson ignited a timeless struggle for control.

Bowling Green is best known today as the calming, flower-filled oasis in lower Manhattan, next to the decidedly less calming, lumbering sculpture Charging Bull, which is popular with tourists. But this peaceful park was once home to New York City's most infamous statue -- and the stage for America's first No Kings protest. In 1770, the old park became the home of a monumental statue of King George III on horseback, an ostentatious artifact meant to remind the rebellious colonists of just who was in charge. On July 9, 1776, following a reading of the freshly minted Declaration of Independence, angry New Yorkers violently pulled down that statue of King George and, as legend has it, rendered his body into bullets used in the battles of the Revolutionary War.  As we approach the 250th anniversary of the United States, we also mark the 250th anniversary of this event — not a moment of jubilation and freedom, but of anger and uncertainty. The Declaration beautifully set down the words of independence. The tearing down of King George  made the same statement — in a far messier, more violent manner. In this episode, take a trip back to the city right before the war, when New York was split into those sympathetic to the Tories and those to the Sons of Liberty, an early organization dedicated to the liberty of the American colonies. PLUS: Find out where you can locate artifacts from this story throughout the city today. FEATURING: A young Alexander Hamilton, William Pitt the Elder, that rascal Cadwallader Colden and the enterprising ladies of the Wolcott household. This special episode is not a rerun! It's a riff on a 2020 Bowery Boys episode. It has been rewritten and rerecorded (including for video on YouTube) in honor of America 250, and newly produced and edited by Kieran Gannon.

The construction of data centers around the country is shaping up to be a contentious topic as the midterm elections grow closer. Pressure is mounting on government officials to balance the economic growth these facilities could bring with the needs of the communities hosting them. Florida Lieutenant Governor and Republican candidate for Governor of Florida, Jay Collins, joins FOX News' Bill Melugin to discuss his proposed guardrails for AI development and data center expansion. He also weighs in on Florida's competitive Republican primary, responds to criticism from gubernatorial opponent, Congressman Byron Donalds, and explains how he would build on the legacy of Governor Ron DeSantis. As the nation gears up to celebrate America 250, a new FOX Nation special, titled “The Patriot War,” dives into the stories of Revolutionary figures like Martha Washington, Alexander Hamilton and more. Emmy-winning actor, producer and director Kelsey Grammer joins Dave Anthony to share insight into the special, as well as political division today versus 250 years ago. He also previews his upcoming film Young Washington and reflects on why the political divisions of today aren't as unprecedented as we think.
