Back in September, Lake Effect reported on the sudden cancellation of federal funding for MKE Roots. The program trains Milwaukee-area teachers on how to make social studies relevant to students by connecting them to local history.  Last month, MKE Roots was notified that it would again receive federal funding. But the money came with the stipulation that the program focus on commemorating the signing of the Declaration of Independence.  Melissa Gibson is an associate professor at Marquette University and the faculty director of MKE Roots. She speaks with Lake Effect's Sam Woods about the changes to its federal grant funding, and how it will – and won't - change what the program does.

A Prior “Independence Day Devotional” as We Prepare to Celebrate Again - We Must Have a Great Spiritual Awakening that Returns America to God MESSAGE SUMMARY: Will you "Stand in the Gap" and participate in a Great Awakening and Spiritual Renewal in America? The signers of the Declaration of Independence, in 1776, began a revolution which led to the formation of the United States of America. This Revolution was rooted in the belief that all people are subject to the rule of God, even the King; and leaders are not above man's law or God's Law. Also, everyone is endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights. Many people have tried to deny that America's founders created a country which wove together the concept of self-governance with Christian principles. Now, it appears the focus, of many political and church leaders, is to eliminate ideas, laws, policies, and objects that relate America to Christianity, the Bible, or anything that smacks of God. Today, this focus away from God is succeeding. We all need to hear what our founders said regarding America's Christian base. Not long after the enactment of the Constitution in the late 1700s, morality and church attendance declined drastically into a Spiritual Depression. The answer to this 1700s turn away from God became the nationwide implementation of "Concerts of Prayer", across all Christian denominations, which led to an American Spiritual Awakening. Today, through our actions, laws, and cultural revisions of our founding Christian principles, we have told God that we do not want Him around. Therefore, we must consider what God said He would do and what He has done in the past when people have turned away from Him, as told in Psalms 2:1-2,5,10-12: “Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD and against his Anointed . . . Then he will speak to them in his wrath, and terrify them in his fury, saying . . .  Now therefore, O kings, be wise; be warned, O rulers of the earth. Serve the LORD with fear and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way, for his wrath is quickly kindled. Blessed are all who take refuge in him.". In the past, as indicated in Psalms 2, God has withdrawn His presence, including His protection and divine wisdom, when people have turned away from Him. God's presence has guided America for so many years, and the withdrawal of God's presence in America would leave us to reap the consequences of our focus away from Him. Also, consider what the Lord said, in Ezekiel 22:30-31: "And I sought for a man among them who should build up the wall and stand in the breach before me for the land, that I should not destroy it, but I found none. Therefore, I have poured out my indignation upon them. I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath. I have returned their way upon their heads, declares the Lord God.”. However, in Zechariah 1:3 and in many other promises throughout the Bible, God says to his people in the past and to us today: “Therefore say to them, Thus declares the LORD of hosts: ‘Return to me', says the LORD of hosts, ‘and I will return to you', says the LORD of hosts.". Will you "Stand in the Gap”, on behalf of your country, to participate in and lead a Great Awakening and Spiritual Renewal in America by returning America to God? We must have a Spiritual Awakening to return America to God.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, I come this day inviting you to cut those deeply entrenched chains that keep me from being faithful to my true self in Christ. In doing so, may my life be a blessing to many. In Jesus' name, amen.      Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 44). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, Because of who I am in Jesus Christ, I will not be driven by Anger. Rather, I will abide in the Lord's Forgiveness. “I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in Me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from Me you can do nothing.” (John 15:5).

Title: Languaging in Hampton RoadsEpisode 20: How to Talk Like a Revolutionary: Be polite!Hosts: Jill Winkowski and Prue SalaskyDate: Oct. 31, 2025Length: 43 minutesPublication Frequency: Fourth Friday (approx) of each monthColonial Williamsburg, the restored Colonial capital (until 1780) of Virginia lies at the northwestern edge of Hampton Roads, part of a historic triangle with Yorktown and Jamestown. Since it opened as “the world's largest U.S. history museum” in the 1930s, it has been telling the story of the Founding Fathers and the American Revolution. To learn about all its tours, programs, activities and educational programs, go to www.colonialwilliamsburg.org.In this episode we explore how CW's use of 18th century language contributes to understanding the men and women who drove revolutionary change in the turbulent years before and after the American Revolution. We learn about the distinctive features of speech at the time of the Declaration of Independence, whose 250th anniversary is next year, 2026. We talk to Cathleene Hellier, senior historian at the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, who authored the book, “18th Century English as a Second Language” (2011, out of print). She discusses the hundreds of primary sources she used to understand how language has changed over the past 250 years and its significance.  We shared the book with humanities scholar Clay Jenkinson, host of Listening to America (formerly The Thomas Jefferson Hour) on NPR, https://ltamerica.org/ and the country's best-known Thomas Jefferson impersonator. He details the textbook's relevant points and describes his own literature-based method of conveying the thoughts of the nation's third president.  CW's  Nation Builders program offers first-person interpretations of 18th century Virginians, both the well-known, such as Thomas Jefferson and George Washington, and the lesser-known, including a preacher, a teacher, and a barkeep, all of  whose lives impacted the community.We attended a Nation Builders performance at the Kimball Theatre, with Stephen Seals portraying James (Armistead) Lafayette, a formerly enslaved African-American who earned his freedom for his spying services for the Patriots during the Revolutionary War; and Robert Weathers, who represents George Wythe, a jurist, scholar, and signer of the Declaration of Independence. Hellier addresses the difficulties in portraying African-American history in the Colonial period and details the extensive research she's done into the language varieties of the time. She's a contributor to enslaved.org, a database of information regarding enslaved people worldwide. She touts the importance of the Virginia Gazette newspaper as a source (digitized copies are available on the CW website, www.colonialwilliamsburg.org.) We're reminded too of the newspaper resources collected by the Library of Virginia, https://www.lva.virginia.gov/collections/digital-collectionsAnd the Valentine Museum in Richmond has a rich repository of African-American history, https://thevalentine.org/Check out our website, languagingHR.wordpress.com.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, of course, Israel does not control President Trump, nor has it controlled any past president. Israel is not "ethnic" cleansing, that would be the motivations and intentions of the Islamist terrorists -- throughout the Middle East and Africa.  The multiple and unprecedented steps it has taken to try to limit casualties, at the cost of IDF soldiers' lives and increasing the longevity of the war in Gaza, is no secret,  and we were not ethnic cleansing when we destroyed multiple population centers in Europe and Japan during World War II. Israel is a multi-ethnic, multi-religious society and a democracy.  The only one in the Middle East.  How many Christians and Jews remain in Arab and Muslim countries in the Middle East, and for those few who are left, are they treated equally?  These are basic facts. Later, we're at a time where constitutional conservatives and their institutions are being tested.  It's simple for people of real faith to reject evil and stand firm in the battle of ideas, rather than equivocate due to conflicts. America faces a turning point; platforms, think tanks, politicians must choose and reveal if they're pretenders or defenders of liberty, as Reagan warned freedom is one generation from extinction.  Also, capitalism is the only humane economic system. Economic socialism is an inhumane economic system. Socialism ​promotes ​the ​welfare ​state. ​Capitalism ​promotes ​the ​individual. Zohran Mamdani has ​no ​idea how ​to ​do ​anything except ​use ​the ​iron ​fist ​of ​government ​to ​impose ​his ​ideology. He is calling for a massive welfare state. Afterward, America First prioritizes the exceptional nation founded on Judeo-Christian principles and Enlightenment ideals—the Declaration of Independence and unparalleled Constitution—with limited representative government, federalism, God-given unalienable rights, and strong federal roles in national security, borders, and sound money. It rejects suicidal isolationism. Finally, Rep Byron Donalds calls in to discuss the government shutdown. He exposes the Democrats hypocrisy, pointing out Chuck Schumer and Senate Democrats voted for the identical measure in March. Donalds argues they're posturing as tough guys to appease the crazy radical left and thwart Trump and MAGA, but lack real policies or ideas to help Americans, instead leading the country down the wrong road.

Greg Jenner is joined in the 18th century by Professor Frank Cogliano and comedian and actor Patton Oswalt to learn about the American War of Independence. Also known as the American Revolutionary War, 2025 marks 250 years since the start of the conflict in 1775, when the first battles between the British army and the colonial resistance were fought at Lexington and Concord. But what caused Britain's North American colonies to rebel against the king and government in London? At what point did they start to see themselves as American and not British? And how did a colonial militia take on an imperial superpower?This episode charts the growing rift between Britain and its American colonists, taking in famous events like the Boston Massacre, the Boston Tea Party and the calling of the first Continental Congress, all the way through to the Declaration of Independence and the course of the revolutionary war itself. We learn how America fought to free itself from the shackles of British rule, and meet some well-known names from history, including Thomas Jefferson, Ben Franklin and George Washington. And we also ask whose freedom was being fought for, and who – such as Black and Indigenous Americans – got left behind.This is a radio edit of the original podcast episode.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for October 29, 2025. 0:30 We unpack revelations that dozens of Biden’s executive actions — even some presidential pardons — may have been signed not by the president himself, but by an auto-pen. We trace the implications of this puppet presidency, where unelected handlers allegedly assumed the powers of the Oval Office. From Alexander Haig’s infamous “I’m in charge” moment to Mike Johnson’s firsthand account of Biden denying his own executive order, the discussion exposes a constitutional crisis — one that raises the chilling question: If Biden wasn’t governing, who was? 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. The House oversight committee said this week that at least some of Joe Biden's autopen signatures are not valid, which would undo many pardons and executive orders which were signed with the autopen. President Trump met with the new Conservative Prime Minister of Japan, Sanae Takaichi yesterday.At their meeting, they signed a trade deal lowering bilateral tariffs to 15% and pledging more cooperation in rare-earth minerals. Democrats in the US Senate have blocked the reopening of the Federal Government again.For the 13th Time, Democrats led by Senator Chuck Schumer voted in almost complete unison against the clean continuing resolution bill that would have funded the military, paid government employees and fund SNAP benefits. 12:30 Get NSorb from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:30 It’s not just about microchips — it’s about America. We break down Nvidia’s blockbuster announcement: seven new supercomputers for the U.S. Department of Energy, powered by 100,000 chips made in America. We connect the dots between Donald Trump’s promise to restore American manufacturing and a long-overdue comeback for U.S. industry. 16:00 We ask our American Mamas about a Halloween trend that has crossed the line. Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson react to reports of people dressing up as the assassinated Charlie Kirk — complete with fake blood and mock “Freedom” shirts — and their asking what has happened to empathy and decency in our culture? We unpack the grotesque mockery, the social media applause fueling it, and the deeper spiritual sickness it reveals. Yet amid the outrage, we find a glimmer of hope — that what was meant for evil might still awaken hearts, spark conviction, and remind parents to teach their children compassion, not cruelty. If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 When Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told NCAA champion Riley Gaines to “get a real job,” the backlash was swift — and heartfelt. We take a look at AOC’s dismissive comment and the deeper cultural divide it exposes about work and motherhood. 26:30 Nearly half of America’s state attorneys general are asking the U.S. Supreme Court to take up the birthright citizenship case — and they’re standing behind President Trump’s executive order to end automatic citizenship for children born to parents in the country illegally. We Dig Deep into the legal, historical, and moral arguments behind the 14th Amendment, tracing its roots back to the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and the congressional debates that shaped it. From “birth tourism” to constitutional intent, this discussion dives into what citizenship truly means — and why it should never be a reward for breaking the law. 32:30 Get Prodovite from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 33:30 Something’s stirring in the heart of America — a renewed openness about faith. We reflect on a surprising and uplifting trend: more public figures, from commentators to professional athletes, are unapologetically sharing their belief in God. When New York Jets quarterback Justin Fields says he’s “low key addicted to reading [his] Bible every day,” it’s more than a soundbite — it’s a sign of cultural momentum. We unpack what this growing revival says about America’s roots, our hunger for truth, and the timeless reminder that our rights come from God, not government. 36:30 There’s a new bill in Ohio that’s sparking national attention, and it's a Bright Spot. The Charlie Kirk American Heritage Act would allow teachers from kindergarten through college to discuss Christianity’s influence on American history and culture. We break down how faith shaped the nation’s founding ideals — from the Declaration of Independence to the first schoolhouses that taught children to read from the Bible. Removing this history has left America divided and adrift, while restoring it could help heal the nation’s soul. Named in honor of Charlie Kirk, the bill is described as both a tribute to his legacy and a blueprint for renewal in classrooms across the country. 40:30 New York Assemblyman Zoran Mamdani is under fire for fabricating a personal story about his so-called “aunt” to bolster his image as a victim of post-9/11 prejudice. The incident fits a troubling pattern of misinformation and moral grandstanding on the left. And we're left wondering how any New Yorker could continue to support a candidate who’s been caught bending the truth for sympathy and power. It's time to say, "whoa!" 42:30 And we finish off with Natalie Gravile, a woman who finish the Ironman Traithlon in Hawaii at 80-years-old.

From the publisher:An astounding look at how America's founders—Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, Madison, Adams—regarded the issue of slavery as they drafted the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. A daring and important work that ultimately reckons with the two great failures of America's founding: the failure to end slavery and the failure to avoid Indian removal.On the eve of the American Revolution, half a million enslaved African Americans were embedded in the North American population. The slave trade was flourishing, even as the thirteen colonies armed themselves to defend against the idea of being governed without consent. This paradox gave birth to what one of our most admired historians, Joseph J. Ellis, calls the “great contradiction”: How could a government that had been justified and founded on the principles articulated in the Declaration of Independence institutionalize slavery? How could it permit a tidal wave of western migration by settlers who understood the phrase “pursuit of happiness” to mean the pursuit of Indian lands?Joseph J.

“We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” That's the opening line of the Declaration of Independence. Written primarily by Thomas Jefferson, it asserts that all individuals have inherent, God-given rights that cannot be taken away by any government. They can't be taken by government because they were not granted by government. But what's a shame in 2025, is that we have democrat Senators in the U.S. Senate who don't seem to understand this most basic American principle.Joseph Backholm & Ashley Vaughan, “Everyone legislates their beliefs,” September 26, 2025.Delano Squires, “Democrats must face their Christian exodus,” September 19, 2025.R.

Thomas Jefferson wasn't the first writer to wax on about the pursuit of happiness, but his famous Declaration of Independence references always struck an emotional chord. On this week's show, Dan Webster, Mary Pat Treuthart, and Nathan Weinbender discuss two films that feature characters on quests for something that, at least tangentially, involves happiness. The first is "The History of Sound," starring Paul Mescal and Josh O'Connor, and the second is the French import, "Souleymane's Story."

"If you can't state the truth, you can't really pursue it either." Scott, project coordinator with the Atlas Society and partner with the Free Society Coalition, left his comfortable career in financial services after a health scare made him realize it was "worth spending my time left advocating for the future I hope for." Drawing parallels between Thomas Paine's revolutionary Common Sense and today's censorship crisis, Scott argues the Declaration of Independence isn't just nostalgia—it's "a kind of reset button for dialogue" that can help us overcome our increasingly fractured society. He explores how John Locke's "life, liberty and property" evolved into Jefferson's pursuit of happiness, why "at a certain point, you're a slave" if you can't say what you want, and how the wars of religion ultimately birthed the Enlightenment ideas that shaped America's founding. Scott envisions massive "Liberty Revival" gatherings where citizens hash out ethical principles and free speech guidelines—holding everyone to a single standard without double standards based on historical grievances. **Note: Scott also wants to clarify that in his comments on Michael Jordan that he “was making a point about how a health or any other kind of scare can sometimes be useful to reassess our values.”From the financial services industry to blues band frontman to freedom advocate, Scott reminds us that sometimes you need to get yourself "worked up" and ready to fight for the world you want to live in, because waiting for perfect conditions means liberty loses by default. Learn more about the Free Society Coalition at: https://www.freesocietycoalition.org/

With groundbreaking original data and historical insights, Nations Apart is an essential guide to understanding why Americans are so divided on many hot button issues, creating geographic fissures that have been exploited by authoritarians. Colin Woodard shows how colonial era settlement patterns and the cultural geography they left behind are at the root of our political polarization, economic inequality, public health crises, and democratic collapse. Drawing on quantitative research from Woodard's university-based think tank project, Nations Apart exposes the true ideological and cultural divides behind today's struggles over:     * Gun control     * Immigration     * Health policy     * Abortion     * Climate Change     * History     * Authoritarianism and Democracy But there is a road map to right the country: a carefully researched, vigorously tested common story for the country built on the mission set forth for us in the document that first bound our regions together, the Declaration of Independence.

https://www.highonmorgan.comInstagramtiktokFacebookXSpotifyAbout Morgan TaylorMorgan Taylor is a St. Louis-born singer-songwriter and Berklee College of Music graduate whose music fuses gospel roots with modern R&B. Known for her dual persona, the grounded Morgan and the fiery Big Mo, her work explores empowerment, love, and self-discovery. Her debut EP Love Bombed (Love, Loss and Lessons) has earned more than 1.5 million streams, establishing her as one of music's most exciting emerging talents.Bio St. Louis, MORemember the name Morgan Taylor because you will see it again. The rising R&B artist is making waves with her latest single, “Outside That's Periodt,” a fearless declaration of independence, empowerment, and self-love. Born from a personal experience during her junior year of college, the track celebrates stepping out of toxic relationships and into confidence.“I was talking to this guy that I really did not like,” Taylor recalls. “I didn't know if I was feeling him. And I was just writing how I felt. As soon as I got to the studio, I was like, ‘This is it.'” The song captures that universal moment when it's time to walk away from what no longer serves you. “The whole point of ‘Outside That's Periodt' is you're in your cuffing season during the fall, and once summer hits, you're outside,” she explains.Though its message carries attitude, Taylor insists the track isn't about toxicity. It's an anthem of joy, freedom, and self-celebration. “It's mostly about the ability to be outside by yourself and just love yourself, not somebody who doesn't share the same love for you,” she says. “It's about being with your friends, being with your mama, drinking some wine, just enjoying life and loving yourself.”That blend of confidence and vulnerability defines Taylor's songwriting process. “Anytime I write a song, it's like my journal, a reflection of what's happening in my life or what my friends are going through,” she explains. “It's really just me expressing how I feel about a certain topic.”“Outside That's Periodt” also channels her bold alter ego, Big Mo. “I feel like everyone has that alter ego, and Big Mo is one of them,” she says. “Big Mo is spicy. She's going to stand on business. She's the extrovert to my introvert, the fire to my calm.” That duality between the sweet, grounded woman she was raised to be and the outspoken artist she's becoming lies at the core of her artistry.The single connects to her debut EP Love Bombed (Love, Loss and Lessons) released in January 2025, which has already surpassed 1.5 million streams on Spotify. “‘Outside That's Periodt' is about standing on business,” Taylor says. “By the end of a relationship, you realize you are the prize. That's how I want women to feel after listening to my music, uplifted and unstoppable.”Her message resonates deeply with young women navigating the balance between expectation and self-worth. “I just want young girls to know it's okay to walk away from something that isn't healthy,” she says. “You're not alone. So many of us go through the same things. Love yourself first before you can love anybody else.”Taylor's smooth yet powerful vocals reflect her gospel roots. She sang her first church solo at nine and soon released her debut gospel EP, Yes, Jesus Loves Me, at just eleven. In high school, she transitioned into R&B while staying grounded in her gospel foundation. Later, at Berklee College of Music, she refined her sound under the guidance of esteemed instructors and renowned vocal coach Romeo Johnson. “The main thing I learned is to be myself,” she says. “You can be inspired by others, but you can't copy them. Stay focused and build connections.”Looking ahead, Taylor dreams of creating her own record label to nurture local talent in St. Louis while expanding into coffee, fashion, and live event production. “I want to make people feel seen,” she says. With aspirations of performing on the Grammy stage and exploring acting, her message remains clear: “You are the prize. You are that girl. Love yourself, don't be too hard on yourself, and always stay true to who you are.”With “Outside That's Periodt,” Morgan Taylor delivers a soundtrack of confidence, sisterhood, and unapologetic joy. It's another defining moment in her fast-rising career and proof that she's one of R&B's most promising new voices.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

We dove into how industrialization created the environment for feminism to later take hold.Listen in to learn about how industry quietly and slowly began dehumanizing society, why women lost meaningful work, the hidden costs of success, how women blamed the wrong people, why America is anti-child, and what it will take to restore balance, sanity, and partnership between the sexes.Such a great conversation with Dylan, enjoy.Timestamps:00:00:00 - 00:00:35 Episode Trailer and Intro00:00:35 - 00:01:40 Dylan Bain Introduction00:01:40 - 00:03:25 Dylan Bain's Background and Mission00:03:25 - 00:05:03 I married someone way above my league00:05:03 - 00:07:25 Industrialism caused feminism00:07:25 - 00:10:22 Why did women, not men, have to do laundry?00:10:22 - 00:12:40 What created the shift to the industrial era and hence, feminism00:12:40 - 00:15:52 Industrialization put women out of a job00:15:52 - 00:17:42 The Declaration of Sentiments and Declaration of Independence read the same 00:17:42 - 00:19:28 Bacon's rebellions and feminists made the same mistake00:19:28 - 00:21:53 Did industrialists know the revolution was dehumanizing?00:21:53 - 00:23:54 How were people in the 1950s okay with being dehumanized00:23:54 - 00:26:27 Do the Wealth of Nations and Communism have a connection?00:26:27 - 00:28:30 The difference between how men and women work00:28:30 - 00:29:57 To be successful, do women need to work like men?00:29:57 - 00:31:35 World war turned men into psychopaths00:31:35 - 00:34:27 What caused the death of women in the Bayview massacre00:34:27 - 00:37:43 In 1945, The USA was the last superpower standing00:37:43 - 00:39:11 Why were women going insane during the industrial revolution00:39:11 - 00:40:00 Gossiping is a defense mechanism?00:40:00 - 00:43:37 How the automotive industry made loneliness worse00:43:37 - 00:44:22 Feminism grew out of jealousy00:44:22 - 00:47:04 Was the birth control pill born of Capitalists' greed?00:47:04 - 00:48:16 Is feminism secretly a way to manipulate women?00:48:16 - 00:49:16 How did we get so obsessed with profits and productivity?00:49:16 - 00:50:33 This is why GDP is so misleading00:50:33 - 00:52:48 United States Military isn't really good at fighting00:52:48 - 00:54:34 This company rolled out 'Freezing Eggs' as benefits for women00:54:34 - 00:56:12 There are not a lot of female role models00:56:12 - 00:57:48 How do we fix things?00:57:48 - 01:00:37 Is leaving home at 18 a scam?01:00:37 - 01:01:54 Kids should be seen and not heard?01:01:54 - 01:04:26 Our education system was designed to create good factory workers01:04:26 - 01:06:43 There's no bad choices, only trade-offs01:06:43 - 01:08:02 Can you handle having kids while studying medicine?01:08:02 - 01:10:16 America is an anti-child society; they hate kids01:10:16 - 01:12:27 Should a neurosurgeon have kids?01:12:27 - 01:13:59 What America's ugly playgrounds says about how they see kids01:13:59 - 01:14:26 Here's why liberal feminists are the most mentally unstable01:14:26 - 01:15:21 Final thoughts and key takeaways01:15:21 - 01:15:59 Outro___________________________If you found some value today then help me spread the word!

Israel has begun a ground offensive in Gaza City that promises a new round of horror in an already existing humanitarian disaster. Despite widespread global condemnation, Netanyahu continues doing what he is doing to carry out his Right Wing messianic vision for Israel. Unfortunately, with Trump - just as with Biden - the U.S. continues to send financial support for the Israeli effort. While our Secretary of State Marco Rubio says “It's their war,” many would argue it is Israel's war - and ours. In my interview today with Arab-American political advocate Raed Jarrar, he argues that without our help Israel could not do what they are doing. According to Jarrar, one phone call from Trump could stop all this. It's a bit of a mystery why President Trump is not willing to make it. Whatever his reason, the war continues to be an unending source of pain and suffering or the Palestinian people. In the Declaration of Independence, it says that “all men are created equal.” And I don't think that means just all Americans. I believe God created us as One and loves us as One. Our job on earth is to learn to love as God loves. I hope my conversation with Raed gives you much to consider. I look forward to hearing your thoughts.

This week on the Mark Levin Show, President Trump rightly criticized Sen Tim Kaine for saying that our rights come from government, not God. The book "Ameritopia" explained that John Locke had profound influence on America's founders during the Revolutionary period. Locke's philosophy was, natural law, derived from God's will, governs all, including governments; no authority can violate inalienable rights; and governments exist by consent to preserve these rights, not create them. This connects to the Declaration of Independence's principles. Kaine's view is stunning and representative of the Democrat position. Why is our stated ally, Qatar, continuing to protect the leadership of Hamas? Qatar cannot and must not provide safe harbor to Hamas's top terrorist monsters and expect that the nation and people they terrorize -- Israel and the Jews -- will sit still for it. Qatar funds terrorism, it helped unleash 9/11 by protecting the would-be ringleader, it funds terror-supporting front groups in the United States and poisons our colleges and universities with their money. Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk has passed away after being assassinated at an event at Utah Valley University. It's a deeply sad and dark day. He was a young man with a wife and two baby girls. His only offense, apparently, was to engage and debate in a joyous way. He spent his life fighting for America and his legacy will never be silenced. The Charlie Kirk assassin is still at large, but the FBI is closing in. He will get caught and he needs to be put to death. This guy needs to pay the price, and the whole country needs to see it. Kirk was a genius who lived life fully, enjoyed debating opponents, and inspired young people in the liberty movement. Kirk is the quintessential American story of self-made success and will have an enduring legacy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, President Trump rightly criticized Sen Tim Kaine for saying that our rights come from government, not God. The book "Ameritopia" explained that John Locke had profound influence on America's founders during the Revolutionary period. Locke's philosophy was, natural law, derived from God's will, governs all, including governments; no authority can violate inalienable rights; and governments exist by consent to preserve these rights, not create them. This connects to the Declaration of Independence's principles. Kaine's view is stunning and representative of the Democrat position. Also, the Democrat Party has radicalized far beyond its base, leaving behind traditional Democrats like veterans, police, firefighters, and generational members who now form a minority. A recent Gallup poll, show that only 42% of Democrats view capitalism positively, while 66% favor socialism. This reflects the entire party, not just the base, as evidenced by elections of socialists in cities like New York and support for figures like AOC and Bernie Sanders. This Democratic radicalization is partly due to new immigrants from anti-capitalist societies. Later, Dr Zuhdi Jasser calls in to discuss his run for Arizona's 4th Congressional district. Jasser emphasized his commitment to service, love for America, and fighting against radical Islam, and far-left policies exploiting freedoms. Jasser would be a counter to progressive kooks like Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar. Afterward, sanctuary states and cities are unconstitutional. America fought a civil war making that clear. States and cities cannot defy federal constitutional authority that is clearly granted to the national government -- the enforcement of federal immigration law. They cannot nullify federal law.

This week on the Mark Levin Show, Democrats, the media, and some Republicans are portraying President Donald Trump as a threat to democracy and the Constitution, but it's the opposite. Democratic Congress members, isolationist fake MAGA figures, Marxists, and Islamists are plotting to destroy American principles and the country, while being promoted by left-wing corporate media. President Trump is taking decisive action on Russia and has made it clear he'll do even more if necessary—unlike the weak, inconsistent leadership we've seen from others. His foreign policy is firm and strategic, echoing the strength of President Reagan, and he's done more to support Ukraine and NATO than President Biden ever dared. It's shocking that Sen Tim Kaine's said that our rights come from government, which is a Marxist and buffoonish view. The Declaration of Independence's concept of unalienable rights from God is rooted in eternal truths and the Judeo-Christian tradition. Kaine rejects the American founding, which is based on divine sovereignty bestowed on individuals. Kaine's view is emblematic of the Democratic Party, which rejects America, embraces Marxism and Islamism, and supports initiatives like the 1619 Project. Learn more about your ad choices.

Debate on the Source of Rights The episode opens with criticism of Democratic Senator Tim Kaine, who argued in a Senate hearing that constitutional rights come from the government rather than from God. Cruz frames this as a radical departure from America’s founding principles, citing the Declaration of Independence and Thomas Jefferson’s writings. The discussion emphasizes that if rights come from government, they can be taken away, whereas God-given rights are “unalienable.” Religion and the Democratic Party Cruz and Ferguson argue that the Democratic Party is increasingly hostile toward people of faith (Christian, Jewish, Catholic). They highlight responses from religious leaders, including Bishop Robert Barron, who strongly opposed Kaine’s remarks and defended the idea that rights come from God. Border Security and the Cartels The podcast shifts to the issue of border security and drug cartels, especially the Sinaloa cartel. They cite a DEA operation in New England that arrested 171 cartel members in one week, seizing fentanyl and counterfeit pills. Cruz and Ferguson warn about the danger of fentanyl-laced pills, especially for young people, describing it as a national epidemic and the leading cause of death among Americans aged 18–45. U.S. Government Action Against Cartels They discuss U.S. military and DEA efforts to combat cartels, including operations in Mexico, Venezuela, and the Caribbean. Cruz praises the government’s recent designation of cartels as terrorist organizations and the deployment of military assets to fight drug trafficking. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

9/4/25 - Unalienable Rights: The Founding vs. Modern Thought

Mark Levin Podcast

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, it's shocking that Sen Tim Kaine's said that our rights come from government, which is a Marxist and buffoonish view. The Declaration of Independence's concept of unalienable rights from God is rooted in eternal truths and the Judeo-Christian tradition. Kaine rejects the American founding, which is based on divine sovereignty bestowed on individuals. Kaine's view is emblematic of the Democratic Party, which rejects America, embraces Marxism and Islamism, and supports initiatives like the 1619 Project. Chapter 5 of On Power says that human rights, liberty, and equality are inherent, God-given through natural law, predating and transcending governments, as affirmed in the Declaration of Independence and echoed in state declarations like Virginia's. These views, shared by Founders such as Jefferson, Mason, Franklin, and Adams, emphasize governments' role in securing these unalienable rights via consent of the governed. In contrast, 19th-century philosophers like Hegel and Marx—influencing modern progressives, American Marxists, and figures like Woodrow Wilson—reject these principles, creating an irreconcilable clash of worldviews at the core of ongoing power struggles, where liberty depends on rights preceding government. Also, anonymous judges are complaining about the Supreme Court to NBC News. They say that the Court overturns lower rulings on Trump administration cases with insufficient explanations, undermining judicial integrity amid rising threats and criticisms from Trump allies. These judges are cowards and activists, and the NBC article is propaganda.  Later, Robert Kennedy Jr. fought back in the latest hearing. Democrat Senators refused to let him answer a question. They hate him because he rejected them.  Finally, Trey Gowdy calls in to discuss his new book, The Color of Death: A Novel. The story follows assistant DA Colm Truesdale, who, after losing his wife and daughter, becomes apathetic about life but excels in his prosecutorial role.
