"American Republics: A Continental History of the United States, 1783-1850" by Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Alan Taylor upends the traditional story of a young nation confidently marching to its continent-spanning destiny. The newly constituted United States actually emerged as a fragile, internally divided union of states contending still with European empires and other independent republics on the North American continent. Native peoples sought to defend their homelands from the flood of American settlers through strategic alliances with the other continental powers.

Sebastian Gorka says that Americans should be committed to the nation's founding values in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution to revive the republic.
Every company has its foundational myth. From the beginning, it becomes the basis of the company’s culture, its marketing, and really its DNA. The same is true for nations. And perhaps not surprisingly no nation has done a better job of that mythology than the United States. From the ideas of manifest destiny to John Winthrop's shining city on the hill, from freedom and equality to American exceptionalism, these stories are not only foundational for Americans, but they run in the American bloodstream.So what happens when it’s discovered that the myth and reality don’t match up? That the emperor has no clothes. Ultimately, the myth is exposed, the wheels come off, the anger spreads, first internally and then outside and the enterprise usually collapses or morphs.Arguably that’s what we’ve been living through today. The exposure and crumbling of the American myth. It explains the populist anger that brought Trump to power, as well as the anger on the other side that has fueled Black Lives Matter. When the myth is stripped bare, the company or the nation must be reinvested or die.These ideas are at the heart of Jared Yates Sexton’s book American Rule: How a Nation Conquered the World but Failed Its People. My conversation with Jared Yates Sexton:

It’s not just statues and American history that are under attack. The most essential ideas from America’s founding are under siege and on trial.Robert R. Reilly, the director of the Westminster Institute and widely published author, joined “The Right Side of History” podcast to discuss his new book “America on Trial: A Defense of the Founding.”Reilly discusses the deeper origins of the American Revolution—rooted in Western thought, philosophy, and religion—and explains why America’s current success and survival depends on embracing those ideas rather than abandoning them.

Dr. Patrick Newman, editor of Rothbard's Conceived in Liberty, calls in to discuss the nature of America's founding and what it means for us today. Dr. Newman proposes that there is a contradiction between the constitution and the declaration of independence; he suggests that this is due to a conflict that had taken place between the federalists and anti-federalists. The conversation then moves to how the separation between the north and south gradually occurred.

This week join Zuhdi as he looks this Father's Day at what values we are teaching our children. As America is demonized by the Left, Zuhdi asks how can we raise virtuous children with sound priorities if they make excuses for all, see themselves as victims and hate the very nation with the founding ideas that unites and teaches us all? Zuhdi also looks at the 'cancel culture' and when, if ever, canceling speech is rational? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Some political philosophers claim America is in crisis because its foundation was built upon the Enlightenment. But what is the true lineage of the ideas, including the truth about God, that made America possible? Robert Reilly, director of the Westminster Institute, joins me to talk about his book, "America on Trial." Plus: Hundreds protest in Idaho over a mom's arrest at a local playground, while Minneapolis allows a public broadcast of the Muslim call to prayer during Ramadan. We'll talk about it all on Thursday's JANET MEFFERD TODAY.
Some try to tell us that America was not founded on biblical principles. In this episode we look at some of the principles enshrined in our founding documents. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pierre-coovert/support
We owe our freedoms to the men who fought the American Revolution and who drafted and signed the Declaration of Independence. But the real American Revolution, as John Adams called it, was the moral one preceding our founding. Janet will discuss it with C. Bradley Thompson, professor of political philosophy at Clemson University and the executive director of the Clemson Institute for the Study of Capitalism. His book is called, "America's Revolutionary Mind: A Moral History of the American Revolution and the Declaration That Defined It." That and more on Monday's JANET MEFFERD TODAY
Kerby Anderson offers a quiz concerning the origins of American Thanksgiving.
The New York Times' 1619 Project is the latest attempt from the left to re-tell history. But Dr. Allen Guelzo thinks the Times made some key errors. " The hope of many members of the Constitutional Convention, that slavery could be abolished, was linked to their conviction that the abolition of slavery was simply one more step that needed to be taken to free us from the inheritance of British colonialism and British imperialism," Guelzo, a research scholar at Princeton University says. "The 1619 Project tends to invert that." Guelzo also talks about reparations, capitalism and its role in our history, and more. We also cover the following stories:A nominee for the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals cried when asked about a liberal group suggesting he would not be fair to LGBT people.Rep. Matt Gaetz calls on the House Ethics Committee to investigate Intelligence Committee chairman Adam Schiff.Former President Barack Obama had some harsh words on Tuesday for those who consider themselves “politically woke."The Daily Signal podcast is available on Ricochet,iTunes, Pippa, Google Play, or Stitcher.

Special guest Julio Rosas of the Washington Examiner joins Matt and Storm in studio to discuss his trip out to Portland, Oregon where he reported on the protests between Antifa and the Proud Boys. The guys also talk about the Democratic Party preparing, once again, to side with Reps. Omar and Tlaib, and presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke's claim that America "was founded on racism" and "is racist today."
For 95 years, South Carolina law has required public college students to complete a “one year” course and exam on the U.S. Constitution, the Declaration of Independence and the Federalist Papers. Disconcertingly, most colleges in the Palmetto State have chosen to violate this law, including one college president calling the law “archaic.” Joshua Putnam discusses with Senator Larry Groom how a bill he's introduced ensures that America's founding documents are taught to every student at every South Carolina public university.
Social justice -- you’ve probably heard the term. It’s a buzzword, but it’s also an ideology. When you peel back the layers, it becomes quite clear that this new social justice ideology stands directly against America’s founding principles -- things like blind justice and equality before the law. Noah Rothman writes about all this in his new book “Unjust: Social Justice and the Unmaking of America.” He joins us to discuss.We also cover these stories:•California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, pulls National Guard troops from the border.•Freshman Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar of Michigan, after getting serious flack from both parties after tweeting what many consider to be anti-Semitic messages, apologizes.•The National Down Syndrome Society releases a new video celebrating the accomplishments of men and women with down syndrome.The Daily Signal podcast is available on Ricochet, iTunes, SoundCloud, Google Play, or Stitcher.

James "The Amazing" Randi is a world-renowned magician, skeptic and investigator of paranormal claims. He has been a central figure in the development of the world-wide skeptical movement. He's perhaps most known for the One Million Dollar Challenge, in which his Foundation will award One Million Dollars to anyone who is able to show evidence of any paranormal, supernatural or occult power or event, under test conditions agreed to by both parties. Randi has appeared very widely in the media, including on Johnny Carson's Tonight Show at least 22 times and he's also a regular on Penn and Teller's Showtime Series, BULLSHIT! He has received numerous awards and recognitions, including a MacArthur Genius Grant, a Fellowship from the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation. In 1989, the American Physical Society presented him with its Forum Award for Promoting Public Understanding of the Relation of Physics to Society. He is the author of many books, notably The Truth About Uri Geller, in which Randi aimed to use his background in magic to investigate the Israeli psychic and performer, and also The Faith Healers, Flim-Flam!, and An Encyclopedia of Claims, Frauds, and Hoaxes of the Occult and Supernatural. In this discussion with DJ Grothe, Randi discusses critical thinking and magic, recounts his experiences as a leading paranormal investigator investigating people like Peter Popoff and others, shares his views about skepticism and religion, and reflects on the future of the skeptical movement. Also in this episode, Lauren Becker shares some thoughts about America's Founding and the Fourth of July.
