In this compelling episode of the Free Thought Project Podcast, our hosts Jason and Matt engage in a riveting dialogue with Dan McKnight. McKnight, with his 13 years of military experience spanning the United States Marine Corps, United States Army, and the Idaho Army National Guard, is the founder and chairman of both Bring Our Troops Home and Defend the Guard. The conversation explores McKnight's efforts to restrain the U.S.'s propensity for war, particularly focusing on the misuse of the National Guard through deployments without formal Congressional declarations of war. We delve into the devastating impacts these wars have inflicted domestically and internationally over time. The podcast also addresses the surprising political shift, where the Left has transitioned from an antiwar stance to seemingly pro-war, while the Right has grown more antiwar. McKnight's organizational successes are celebrated, but we also candidly discuss the formidable challenges posed by military bureaucracy, including interference from high-ranking Generals to thwart their legislative progress. The key question we grapple with: can a nation, which has spent most of its existence at war, truly put a halt to its war-waging tendencies? This is an impactful episode you won't want to miss.

You can see polling on their website for numbers - https://bringourtroopshome.us/polls.The cornerstone project of Bring Our Troops Home is the “Defend the Guard” movement. Defend the Guard is state-based legislation that would prohibit the deployment of National Guard units into active combat without a formal declaration of war by Congress, as required by Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution.The National Guard forms the backbone of the U.S. military. Over 45% of the troops deployed and 18% of the casualties incurred by the Global War on Terror were Guardsmen.Passage of this bill in multiple state legislatures would force the federal government to follow what is already federal law, and either ends our foreign policy of multiple endless wars and foreign occupations or make Congress fully accountable for their decisions.Defend the Guard has been formally introduced as a bill in 20 states as of 2022, and we have commitments from potential sponsors in a dozen others. We are working on a fifty-state strategy for the 2023 legislative session, and states we're particularly excited about include Arizona, Kentucky, Wyoming, and Idaho.As a non-profit, they educate fellow citizens and encourage lawmakers related to their preferred legislation.

Dan McKnight talks about the “Defend the Guard” movement, a set of bills that would mandate that a state’s national guard troops not be deployed overseas without an official declaration of war from congress. The legislation has sponsors in 31 states so far, and that number is growing. None of this, McKnight stresses, is a radical reinterpretation American law—it is just an attempt to follow the process that the constitution already lays out. It’s ridiculous, he says, that national guard troops are spending their time helping the American empire occupy countries halfway across the globe when their own states already need help. Dan McKnight is the founder and Chairman of Idahoans to Bring Our Troops Home. He served in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserves, three years active duty with the U.S. Army and ten years with the Idaho Army National Guard, including a one-year deployment to Afghanistan in 2006.
