Patriotism involving cultural attachment to the United States
POPULARITY
As America celebrates 250 years of freedom, one question towers above the rest: Do we still know who we are? Fox News host Rachel Campos-Duffy joins Erick Stakelbeck to discuss her bestselling new book, All American Patriotism, and why America is facing a profound identity crisis after decades of attacks on our history, faith, and founding principles. Rachel explains how generations of Americans grew up loving their country—even while recognizing its imperfections—but warns that today's students are increasingly being taught to see America only through the lens of division, oppression, and grievance. She argues that recovering our national identity begins at home, with parents reclaiming the responsibility of teaching the next generation the true story of America. At a time when patriotism is often under attack, this conversation is a timely reminder of what has made America the greatest force for freedom in history—and why that legacy is worth defending. If we forget our story, we risk losing our future. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

America is about to celebrate its 250th birthday, but some left-wing Democrats plan to skip the party. “When you forget who you are, it's easy to be talked into becoming something else, says GAI's Eric Eggers. A new CNN poll found surprising support among Democrats for socialism, with 66 percent of those surveyed saying they have a positive view of socialism, compared with a minority – 42 percent – saying the same about capitalism and the free market system, a flip of their sentiments from 15 years ago. Is this caused by their hatred for President Donald Trump and his populist turn, or is it a longer-term trend?
Rachel Campos-Duffy, cohost of FOX & Friends Weekend and New York Times bestselling author, joins Newt to discuss her new book, All American Patriotism: Celebrating 250 Years of America's Greatness. Rachel shares why she set out to counter decades of what she sees as a "narrative of shame" surrounding American history, and how she gathered her Fox colleagues to write essays on what America means to them, revealing the country's rich regional diversity. She also opens up about her family's Great American Road Trip, inspired by her husband Sean Duffy's own childhood memories, and the deeply personal story of her father's journey from poverty in a Mexican American mining town to the American dream. Newt and Rachel discuss the decline — and possible resurgence — of patriotism among young Americans, the politicization of history curricula, and what the nation's 250th birthday means at this pivotal moment.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“We must perpetrate the paradox that our American cultural tradition lies in the future.” — Randolph Bourne, via Dominic Erdozain Should Americans be proud of their country? The Anglo-American historian Dominic Erdozain thinks not. His new book, To Love a Country, argues that there's a problem with American patriotism. Americans shouldn't love their country, Erdozain says. It's not a good place. His argument is that American patriotism has the same Puritan root as British imperialism. The idea of a chosen people, a city on the hill, a nation with a special mission is a kind of moral virus. He says it infected America in the great awakenings of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and has provided moral cover for slavery, military aggression abroad, and the denial of rights at home. So what America needs, he argues, is a new set of foundational myths laid out by progressives like Jane Addams, Frederick Douglass, William Lloyd Garrison and Martin Luther King Jr. This would establish a new kind of American patriotism which is forward-looking and internationalist rather than nativist or exceptionalist. Erdozain even gives Gandhi a shoutout as a model of American patriotism, although one wonders what the Indian pacifist would have made of this. So what will the Atlanta-based Erdozain be doing on July 4? Hiding under his bed, perhaps, rather than enjoying the hotdogs and fireworks. In hiding from hundreds of millions of patriotic Americans. Five Takeaways • The Puritan Root of American Exceptionalism: The idea of America as a chosen people, a city on a hill with a special mission to the world, was not invented in America. It was inherited from English Puritanism. As it spread through the first and second great awakenings of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries — what some scholars call the New Englandization of America — it became the canopy under which very different kinds of people sheltered. You didn't have to be a Puritan in any theological sense. You just had to accept the premise that America was righteously exceptional. And once you accepted that, a great deal of scrutiny became unavailable. • Nationalism Is Immune to Failure: One of Erdozain's sharpest observations, via historian Lindsey O'Rourke's work on American interventionism: nationalism can absorb any amount of failure. The defeat in Vietnam, the disaster of Iraq, the failure of Afghanistan — a certain kind of nationalism insulates itself from the lessons these events might teach. It's always someone else's fault. It's always a particular administration's failure, never the national premise. This makes exceptionalism uniquely resistant to the ordinary mechanism of democratic accountability. • Randolph Bourne and the Patriotism of the Future: Erdozain's most original historical recovery: Randolph Bourne, a radical journalist writing during the First World War, who argued that nativism and nationalism were European imports, backward-looking and derivative. Bourne's phrase: “we must perpetrate the paradox that our American cultural tradition lies in the future.” A patriotism faithful to the diversity of modern America — its bustling pluralism, its immigrant energy — cannot be built by looking backward to the founders. It must be built by looking forward to the founders we have not yet had. • Alternative Founders: Addams, Douglass, Garrison, King: Erdozain proposes replacing — or at least supplementing — the canonical founders with a different cast. Jane Addams, who said the question is not what can we teach the bewildered immigrant but what can we learn from them. Frederick Douglass, who held America to account for its foundational promises. William Lloyd Garrison, the abolitionist. Martin Luther King Jr., who went to India to learn about nonviolence from Gandhi. These are the people, Erdozain argues, who offer a patriotism adequate to the diversity and complexity of twenty-first century America. • JFK's Strategy of Peace: The Possibility of Reinvention: Erdozain ends the book with Kennedy's strategy of peace speech at American University in June 1963 — two months before his assassination. By then, Kennedy had come to believe that the impetus for war was coming from within his own country, from his own military and CIA, not from the Soviets. His speech — conceding nothing to communism as an ideology, but immensely generous about the Russian people and about Khrushchev as a leader — is Erdozain's model for what reinvention looks like. The Bay of Pigs taught him something. By the end, he was talking about Vietnam as not America's fight. Lessons can be learned, even in office, even at the last moment. About the Guest Dominic Erdozain is a historian and writer, graduate of Oxford and Cambridge, and visiting professor of history at Emory University in Atlanta. He is the author of To Love a Country: The Problem of Patriotism in America (Crown, June 2, 2026) and One Nation Under Guns. He grew up in Preston, Lancashire, supports Liverpool FC, and lives in Atlanta, Georgia.

The segment features Rachel Campos-Duffy discussing her new book centered on American patriotism ahead of the nation's upcoming 250th anniversary. She argues that U.S. schools and cultural institutions have increasingly emphasized negative interpretations of American history, saying younger generations are being taught narratives rooted in shame rather than civic pride. She frames the founding of the United States as historically exceptional, highlighting the Constitution and Bill of Rights as foundational achievements that should be celebrated rather than criticized through what she describes as a modern “anti-American” lens. The conversation touches on broader cultural debates, including controversies over education curricula, historical interpretation, and gender issues in sports, which she attributes to ideological shifts in academia and public institutions. Campos-Duffy also emphasizes the importance of parents actively teaching children American history through direct experiences like visiting national landmarks in Washington, D.C., and engaging with civic education outside the classroom. She closes by promoting her book as a collection of personal American success stories from Fox News personalities, intended to reinforce gratitude, patriotism, and pride in the country's founding ahead of the milestone anniversary.

“As American as apple pie” — it's a phrase that's come to be known as something quintessentially American, symbolic of tradition and patriotism. The irony is that apples are not actually native to America at all! Though they've become a symbol of the United States, apples originate far from North America. We trace Apple's tasty history from Asia to America and westward as part of our celebration of the country's 250th anniversary.RSVP to our FREE event at Molly's Bookstore in Allston with author Tara Menon! https://bit.ly/utrtaramenon
Musician and cultural critic John Ondrasick of Five for Fighting joins the show for a no-holds-barred talk on free speech, media hypocrisy, and American patriotism in 2026. He shares his hero's journey to the stage, dissects shifting narratives around Biden and Trump, and unpacks the "free speech martyr" tactic that distracts from real accountability. Ondrasick calls out the politicization of sports, cancel culture's grip on the music industry, and why moral clarity, calling evil actors evil, matters now more than ever. He weighs the opportunities and risks for artists embracing unapologetic patriotism amid today's culture wars.

Also discussed is The White House’s failure to correctly define the “imminent threat” of Iranian nuclear proliferation at the onset of the Iran war and the conspiracy theories and misinformation that are spread through the world of Right Wing podcasting.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Historically Thinking: Conversations about historical knowledge and how we achieve it
The red flowered plant that shows up everywhere at this time of year–I saw a forest of them in Wegman's this morning– is called in Mexico the cuetlaxochitl, or the noche buena; but Americans know it by as the namesake of man who introduced it to the United States: poinsettia. Yet Joel Roberts Poinsett was a more interesting organism than that plant given his name. He was a South Carolinian who spent years away from the state, and was a committed nationalist and anti-nullifier; a world traveller when few Americans were; a slaveowner who other slaveowners regarded as potentially anti-slavery; an international investor who also labored for South Carolina local improvements; a diplomat who spent years if not decades trying to find a way to be a soldier. And that's leaving a few facets of his identity out. As my guest Lindsay Schackenbach Regele sums him up, “He was not the same, anywhere.”Lindsay Schakenbach Regele is with me to discuss Joel Poinsett, his era, and what he reveals about it.

September 11th, 2001 marked the beginning of the so-called war on terror, but the attacks of that day also re-ignited battles over the nature of American patriotism. In Divided by Terror: American Patriotism after 9/11 (UNC Press, 2021), Professor John Bodnar argues that the nature of patriotism as being war-based or empathetic divided the nation as much as the responses to the 9/11 attacks. Using a variety of public media and private correspondence, Dr. Bodnar explores the different ways Americans tried to understand and remember 9/11, their disagreements over government responses to it, and how patriotism itself was also part of the debate. Dr. Bodnar shows how people on all the various sides to national security debates used patriotism as a motivating factor for their positions. Divided by Terrorshows how patriotism and how it is to be practiced was contested and fought over as much as the policies that it inspired. Dr. Bodnar is a Distinguished Emeritus Professor in the Department of History at Indiana University. He is the author of 8 academic books in addition to numerous journal articles.

Using a variety of public media and private correspondence, Dr. Bodnar explores the different ways Americans tried to understand and remember 9/11, their disagreements over government responses to it, and how patriotism itself was also part of the debate. Dr. Bodnar shows how people on all the various sides to national security debates used patriotism as a motivating factor for their positions. Divided by Terrorshows how patriotism and how it is to be practiced was contested and fought over as much as the policies that it inspired. Dr. Bodnar is a Distinguished Emeritus Professor in the Department of History at Indiana University. He is the author of 8 academic books in addition to numerous journal articles.

It is 2025. Alligator Alcatraz is open for business. The Trump tax cuts appear to be on their way to being made permanent. Donald Trump is still fighting against the establishment in the D.C. swamp, as well as the lawless, lower federal courts. Common sense and the Constitution have generally prevailed in the Supreme Court, with decisions typically coming in at six to three. And yet, pride in being an American is at an all-time low, especially among people who identify as Democrats.Today, the day before Independence Day, 2025, I will discuss the topics of why some are not proud of America in this moment, why they should be, what they should do if they are not, and what the rest of 2025 is expected to look like politically with a group of regularly returning guests.Becky Noble, a journalist at Red State and her substack Gumshoe Politics; Matt Fitzgibbons, historian, musician, and publisher of Patriot Music .com; Amy Holem of Aimee's Audios Subliminal Acoustic Fingerprinting; and the host of FIREFOXNEWS ONLINE, George Sinzer.Become a supporter of Tapp into the Truth: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tapp-into-the-truth--556114/support Tapp into the Truth on Rumble.

Today's country music industry is deeply associated with a certain jingoistic ‘rally around the flag,' ‘support the troops' spirit. In this week's podcast, we're re-airing a conversation with Joseph M. Thompson, author of Cold War Country: How Nashville's Music Row and the Pentagon Created the Sound of American Patriotism.Micah and Joseph discuss how hillbilly music transformed into the powerful country music industry, starting with a little assistance from the US military in the 1940s and 50s. Plus, how country music came to be linked to a certain type of American patriotism, and why some of country music's most famous jingoistic songs are more complex than many listeners think.

Tune in here to this Tuesday edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by discussing what America stands for. America is the light of the world, standing for freedom and prosperity. This has been lost to many in the younger generation who have been lied to by politicians and college professors who point to the mistakes of our past and claim that America is an evil country. This narrative was rejected in the past election, where the American people chose freedom; we chose light over darkness. The American Dream is alive and well, but it requires hard work and sacrifice; freedom isn't free. During President Ronald Reagan's Inaugural Address, he said, "Freedom is a fragile thing and it's never more than a generation away from extinction." Never lose sight of what we stand for as Americans, never forget what those who have come before us sacrificed for what we have today. Listen here for all of this and more on The Brett Winterble Show! For more from Brett Winterble check out his YouTube channel.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Patriotism in America is not a monolith — it's a battleground of identity, sacrifice, and service — and this episode of Veteran Made rips off the veneer of easy answers. Host Carey Kight and guest Jordan Buck, a former Army Cav Scout, refuse to let listeners coast on tired clichés. They confront the reality that waving a flag or wearing a uniform is not the sum total of service. For Buck, who never deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan, the military was transformative, making him a better man. Yet, he's blunt: not every veteran's journey is the same, and not every act of service is recognized or understood. This episode demands that you stop measuring patriotism by a single yardstick. Service is not about the loudest display, but the quiet, relentless drive to give back in your own way, whether that's running an ultramarathon relay across the country or supporting your community at home. Listeners are challenged to interrogate their own assumptions about what it means to serve and what it means to be patriotic. Team RWB's Old Glory Ultra Relay, where Buck and his team will run the American flag from coast-to-coast, isn't just a spectacle; it's a living, grueling testament to American service. The episode lays bare the divisions and judgments that simmer beneath the surface — who “counts” as a real veteran, whose sacrifice is “enough” — and then torches them. If you think patriotism is simple, this episode will force you to reckon with its complexity. It's a call to action: understand that service is different for everyone, and true patriotism means honoring every path, every sacrifice, and every story, not just the ones that fit neatly into your idea of what America should be.

On today's episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson, we're discussing the shocking comments from Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, who seem to think the American people are too "dumb" to compete in the workforce. Instead of investing in American workers, they're advocating for importing a massive influx of workers from India to replace us. This is not America First, and it's certainly not what the American people voted for on November 5th. Tune in as we unpack why this mindset undermines our nation's sovereignty and the hardworking Americans who built this country.—https://policecoffee.com/collections/coffee

The bankruptcy judge overseeing the liquidation of Infowars has halted the transfer of the company to the Onion due to suspicion of fraud in the auction. With the rise of Trump once again, and his almost unanimous selection of open zionists, not to mention the patriotic rise of Elon Musk, it is a healthy question to ponder: what if this is all a giant scam, a giant troll - if not literally, perhaps that is the image being created by the so-called Deep State? Those defending the selection of zionists have argued it's ‘better than the other side', though the other side is overrun by the same zionists. Heroes like Tulsi Gabbard may be legitimate but there is a chance she is indeed a Young Global Leader of the WEF, something also justified as being nothing more than her not knowing what she had been listed as being apart of - a similar argument used when Trump is caught in a tight spot. Those like Vivek Ramaswamy and Elon Musk, selected to run a new agency called Office of Government Efficiency are peculiar figures: Vivek has called on Israel to commit total genocide against their enemies and Musk, who bought Twitter more than likely for the data, also likely knew, based on the data, who would win the election and therefore assigned with him in order to boost his corporate-government contracts and personal power. What if there were no bad guys or good guys, and that the whole narrative is nothing more than our own personal delusions, held to keep us sane when faced with unimaginable conspiracy and lies, or just the reality that maybe we don't matter at all. Now with Senator Katie Britt putting colleges on alert for restrictions on protest and speech, we are watching in real time as free speech, protest, publication, and religion, are under assault due to the creating a specially protected class that stands above all other Americans. They believe they are chosen, that they have a right to expand their reich, and that anyone in disagreement should be silenced or exterminated. -FULL ARCHIVE & RSS: https://www.spreaker.com/show/the-secret-teachings Twitter: https://twitter.com/TST___Radio Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thesecretteachings WEBSITE (BOOKS, RESUBSCRIBE for early & ad-free show access): http://thesecretteachings.info Paypal: rdgable@yahoo.com CashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.

For decades, country music has had a close and special relationship to the U.S. military. In his new book, Cold War Country, historian Joseph Thompson shows how the leaders of Nashville's Music Row found ways to sell their listeners on military service, at the same time they sold country music to people in uniform.Shane Harris spoke with Thompson about how, as he puts it, Nashville and the Pentagon “created the sound of American patriotism.” Thompson's story spans decades and is filled with famous singers like Roy Acuff, Elvis Presley, Merle Haggard, and Lee Greenwood. Collectively, Thompson says, these artists helped to forge the close bonds between their genre and the military, but also helped to transform ideas of race, partisanship, and influenced the idea of what it means to be an American.
