Trump's sweeping tariffs have set off shockwaves worldwide. Savage speaks with conservative economic expert and CEO of The Bahnsen Group David Bahnsen to bring clarity to the recent tariffs. Bahnsen explains how these dramatic tariffs are chaotic and detrimental to economic stability. He argues that while the administration's intent to bring manufacturing jobs back to the U.S. is well-meaning, it fails to consider modern manufacturing and national security in trade policies. Bahnsen demonstrates how broadly applied tariffs diminish the legitimacy of legitimate security concerns and misinterpret trade dynamics. He discusses the unique challenges in both commercial and residential real estate markets, the risks associated with a lack of business confidence, and the negative impacts of aggressive trade rhetoric on international relations. Bahnsen emphasizes the need for a long-term approach and hopes that common sense will return to the administration.

Based on my previous natural law episode, today I look at possible traces of theonomy throughout history. Theonomy is often accused of being novel or modern, originating with 20th Century theologians such as Bahnsen, North, and Rushdoony. But it seems that an argument could be made that theonomy is much older than that. Were there Christians during the Roman Empire that advocated for greater conformity to the Old Testament civil laws? Was even medieval Ireland influenced by the Mosaic law code? Today I tackle those questions in the hopes of tracing the threads of theonomy throughout history.And, as always, if you have any questions or comments, please email me at thegbgpodcast@gmail.com.You can follow also me on Facebook or Twitter, or go to http://www.ericluppold.com/And if you would like to support the show, please consider becoming a patron!

Theonomy, also known as Christian Reconstructionism, has seen a revival in recent decades. The early movement, led by R.J.
