Podcasts about founding fathers

The Department of Homeland Security has entered a partial government shutdown, after a two-week funding extension expired without a bipartisan agreement on immigration reforms. While core agencies like ICE and CBP remain operational due to existing funding streams, the lapse forces roughly 95% of TSA agents and thousands of FEMA employees to work without pay, echoing the financial strain of a previous 43-day shutdown. Republican candidate for the North Carolina Senate and former RNC Chairman Michael Whatley joins the Rundown to discuss yet another political standoff and how it ties into his bid to replace retiring Senator Thom Tillis. As the nation marks the federal holiday for Washington's birthday, 'The White House', a new FOX Nation series, explores the executive mansion's early years, highlighting the political power plays, personal scandals, and the high-stakes compromise that shaped the nation's capital. Historian and CEO of the American Philosophical Society, Dr. Patrick Spero, who is featured in the series, joins to discuss the complex lives of the Founding Fathers, the influential role of Dolley Madison in shaping the building's social identity, and how the "People's House" has constantly evolved to meet the needs of a growing country.

Courses on Western Civilization were once a staple in schools.  No longer.  It’s been replaced by Global Civilization or Social Studies courses.  Our guest,  former Harvard Professor, James Hankins and his co-author, Professor Allen Guelzo, sought to change that so that the good resulting from the traditions of Western Civilization–its art, literature, law, philosophy, science, faith, and tolerance–are preserved and, thus, perpetuated.  Professor Hankins authored volume I of ‘The Golden Thread: A History of the Western Tradition” and Professor Guelzo will take this impressive work from the 1500’s to the modern day in Volume II.  The epic scope of the project is meant to provide that which threads from ancient Greece, through the Roman Empire and Christendom and then to more modern civilizations, including our own.  The second volume will provide context as to how our Founding Fathers tried to maintain the synthesis of reason and compassion, the twin exemplars of the tradition they unpack for us.  Western Civilization’s great achievements predominate, but its failings are also a part of this scholarly work.  Professor Hankins joins us today to discuss.

Sons Of Liberty Radio with Bradlee Dean Bradlee Dean's "MY WAR" - Part 4 The Battle for Truth: Law, Liberty, and the Moral Compass of a Generation MY WAR: The Battle for a Generation Bradlee Dean | Sons of Liberty Radio - Part 4 Analysis #SocialCommentary The Post-1962 Statistical Shift +553% Unwed Births (Ages 10-14) +794% Violent Crime Increase -80pts SAT Score Decline 32,000 Christian Schools (1984) Core Argument: Choice vs. Sickness •The "Sickness" Myth: Dean argues society labels bad choices (addiction, obesity, crime) as "sickness" to absolve individuals of responsibility. •The Role of Law: The Ten Commandments are described as a "light" that exposes guilt; removing them dims moral perception. •Media Critique: Accuses state-run media of "bait and switch" tactics and prioritizing agendas over truth. Historical Perspectives "Wherever law ends, tyranny begins." — John Locke "Morality cannot be maintained without religion." — George Washington Key Parables The Locked Door: Houdini failed to escape a door that was never locked; the prison was only in his mind. The Donkey: Used the dirt meant to bury him as steppingstones to climb out of the well. The Cookie Tin: A man judged a stranger for "stealing" his cookies, only to realize he was eating hers. #CONSTITUTION #EDUCATION #RESPONSIBILITY Reading Time: ~12 min This document summarizes the fourth part of Bradley Dean's "MY WAR" series, focusing on his mission to challenge the "sickness" narrative in American culture. Through high school assemblies and historical analysis, Dean argues for a return to personal responsibility and biblical foundations to combat rising social decay. Detailed Points of Summary The Mission to the Youth: Assemblies and Moral Absolutes Bradley Dean reflects on his extensive work across 331 high schools in 22 states, driven by a conviction that public school systems often fail to teach the truth. During his assemblies, such as those in Arkansas and Minnesota, he challenges students to reconsider their perspectives on love, lust, and abstinence. He emphasizes the "Law of Love"—doing unto others as you would have them do unto you—as a practical guide for relationships. Dean argues against the cultural myth that students do not want to hear about abstinence, citing that a vast majority actually desire moral absolutes. He believes that the fight for this generation is a "war" worth fighting, aiming to provide the guidance many students lack due to broken homes or systemic insecurity. The "Sickness" vs. "Choice" Framework A core theme of the presentation is the distinction between involuntary disease and voluntary actions. Sickness Involuntary, diseased state, no responsibility. Choice Voluntary selection requires accountability. The Deception of "Sickness" and the Role of Law Dean uses several analogies, including an obese man on a talk show and a speeding driver, to argue that society has replaced "sin" and "violation" with the label of "sickness" to absolve individuals of responsibility. He posits that the Law (specifically the Ten Commandments) serves as a mirror to show individuals their violations, much like turning up a dimmer switch in a bathroom reveals one's true physical state. By removing these moral markers, Dean argues, society has "dimmed the light," making it impossible for individuals to perceive their own guilt or the need for change. He asserts that while the law condemns the guilty, it is a positive force for those who love liberty, as it leads them toward repentance and grace. Historical Revisionism and the Faith of the Founders The narrative challenges the modern labeling of Founding Fathers like George Washington and Benjamin Franklin as "deists" or "atheists." Dean provides historical accounts of Washington's belief in "providential agency," including his miraculous survival during the French and Indian War where he emerged unscathed despite having four bullet holes in his jacket. Similarly, he highlights that many signers of the Declaration of Independence held Bible degrees. He contrasts these historical realities with modern media's "bait and switch" tactics, which he claims are designed to stir controversy rather than report the truth. He also references figures like MLK Jr. and Eric Liddell to show how men of faith are often mislabeled by their contemporaries. Post-1962 Societal Shift

In the 1920s, Józef Piłsudski was a household name not just in Poland, but across Europe and across the Atlantic Ocean as well. Yet this complex and contradictory figure – a socialist and a nationalist, a clandestine agitator and a legendary military strategist, protector of Jews and other national minorities on Polish soil who was nonetheless often accused of imperialism – has eluded serious biographical treatment in English until now. Yeshiva University professor Joshua D. Zimmerman offers a nuanced, readable, and definitive account of the man who re-founded the independent state of Poland in 1918. Jozef Pilsudski: Founding Father of Modern Poland (Harvard University Press, 2022) could not be more timely, given the lessons to be learned from Piłsudski's career by today's opponents of far-right populism in Eastern Europe, and even more urgently – by English-language readers seeking to understand the imperative of preserving an independent Ukrainian state in the face of Russian aggression. Piotr H. Kosicki is Associate Professor of History at the University of Maryland, College Park. He is the author of Catholics on the Barricades (Yale, 2018) and editor, among others, of Political Exile in the Global Twentieth Century (with Wolfram Kaiser). Learn more about your ad choices.

Sons Of Liberty Radio with Bradlee Dean Bradlee Dean's "MY WAR" - Part 1 My War: Restoring the Moral Foundations of the American Republic MY WAR: The Battle for a Generation A visual abstract of Bradlee Dean's critique on education, media, and constitutional foundations. Part 1 Analysis Core Arguments Education vs. Indoctrination The shift from "The Law and the Gospel" to a system that ignores morality. Prevention (education) is better than cure (penal statutes). Republic vs. Democracy A Democracy is a ship without an anchor, tossed by winds; a Republic is anchored by the Bible and the Ten Commandments. Media Hypocrisy & Control Tracing media control back to J.P. Morgan (1917). Modern journalism is viewed as an "agenda-driven" tool rather than an arbiter of truth. "If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, it expects what never was and never will be."— Thomas Jefferson (quoted) Data & Stats 3,700 Daily Abortions 90% Media Pro-Abortion Pillars Ten Commandments (The Moral Law) Constitutional Originalism Parental Responsibility Biblical Foundations in Schools #Constitution #Truth #Liberty #Family Duration: 01:40:53 | Focus: Moral & Civic Restoration Target Audience: American Youth & Parents This document summarizes Part 1 of Bradlee Dean's "My War" series, which explores the systemic shift in American education, media, and governance. It argues for a return to Judeo-Christian principles and the constitutional framework established by the Founding Fathers to rescue the current generation from moral and social decay. Detailed Key Points Summary The Crisis of "Generation Why" and Educational Failure The modern youth, often labeled "Generation Next," are more accurately described as "Generation Why" due to the profound lack of moral guidance and parental presence in their lives. This generation faces a landscape of broken families, divorce, and a school system that functions more as an indoctrination center than an educational institution. The speaker emphasizes that the tragic events, such as the Littleton shooting, are symptoms of a society that has abandoned its moral pillars—religion and morality—which George Washington identified as essential for civil society. The Subversion of Media and Entertainment The entertainment industry and mainstream media have transitioned from upholding moral standards to actively promoting indoctrination. Historically, the Motion Picture Production Code (1930-1968) ensured that films did not lower the moral standards of the audience; however, modern media now prioritizes "spectacle" to control the populace. Research indicates a significant ideological bias among journalists, many of whom support adultery, homosexuality, and abortion, while rarely attending church. This bias results in a "rearranged reality" where truth is suppressed in favor of a specific liberal agenda. Media Ideology & Bias Statistics Survey of 240 news anchors, editors, and writers regarding social moral standards: Support Adultery 47% Support Homosexuality 76% Support Abortion 90% Seldom/Never Attend Church 86% Republic vs. Democracy: The Anchor of Law A critical distinction is made between a democracy and a republic. While a democracy is described as a "vile form of government" subject to the "winds of doctrine," a republic is anchored by law—specifically the Ten Commandments and the Bible. The Founding Fathers, including James Madison and Andrew Jackson, viewed the Bible as the "rock" upon which the Republic rests. Current political discourse often mislabels the U.S. as a democracy to facilitate a shift toward mob rule and the erosion of personal property and security. The Sanctity of Life and Social Deception The document highlights the hypocrisy in American law, where it is illegal to tamper with eagle eggs or kill whales, yet 3,700 human babies are aborted daily. The origins of Planned Parenthood are linked to Margaret Sanger's eugenics philosophy, which targeted "undesirable" populations. Furthermore, the "hate crime" narrative is criticized as a tool to silence religious opposition, citing the Matthew Shepard case where the motive was drugs and money rather than sexual orientation.

I've been looking for a way to celebrate America 250 as this year goes by and I don't want it to be relegated to July 4th or certain events. So, I thought maybe I would search for primary documents, written for or by the Founding Fathers (and a surrounding cast of historical characters) for as many of the days of the year as I can. Since I'm starting in February, I think it's fitting that my search brought me first to a set of letters exchanged between Phyllis Wheatley and General George Washington. Below is the poem that prompted Washington to write to the formerly enslaved poet, Phyllis Wheatley. His Excellency, General Washington by Phyllis Wheatley Celestial choir! enthron'd in realms of light,Columbia's scenes of glorious toils I write.While freedom's cause her anxious breast alarms,She flashes dreadful in refulgent arms.See mother earth her offspring's fate bemoan,And nations gaze at scenes before unknown!See the bright beams of heaven's revolving lightInvolved in sorrows and the veil of night!    The Goddess comes, she moves divinely fair,Olive and laurel binds Her golden hair:Wherever shines this native of the skies,Unnumber'd charms and recent graces rise.    Muse! Bow propitious while my pen relatesHow pour her armies through a thousand gates,As when Eolus heaven's fair face deforms,Enwrapp'd in tempest and a night of storms;Astonish'd ocean feels the wild uproar,The refluent surges beat the sounding shore;Or think as leaves in Autumn's golden reign,Such, and so many, moves the warrior's train.In bright array they seek the work of war,Where high unfurl'd the ensign waves in air.Shall I to Washington their praise recite?Enough thou know'st them in the fields of fight.Thee, first in peace and honors—we demandThe grace and glory of thy martial band.Fam'd for thy valour, for thy virtues more,Hear every tongue thy guardian aid implore!    One century scarce perform'd its destined round,When Gallic powers Columbia's fury found;And so may you, whoever dares disgraceThe land of freedom's heaven-defended race!Fix'd are the eyes of nations on the scales,For in their hopes Columbia's arm prevails.Anon Britannia droops the pensive head,While round increase the rising hills of dead.Ah! Cruel blindness to Columbia's state!Lament thy thirst of boundless power too late.    Proceed, great chief, with virtue on thy side,Thy ev'ry action let the Goddess guide.A crown, a mansion, and a throne that shine,With gold unfading, WASHINGTON! Be thine. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Welcome to Meaning-Making 101 where we explore the crisis of meaning in our world today, and how we may help usher in an awakening from it. This Episode: The American Experiment was quite literally argued into existence, but are we watching its final breaths?Tonight, we delve into Part 3 of the "Death of Debate" series by  @DadSavesAmerica  This episode takes us on a journey from the high-stakes logic of the Founding Fathers and the legendary Lincoln-Douglas debates to the modern era of "performance" politics.Is debate still a tool for progress, or has it just become a war of soundbites and "brain rot" optics? Let's get into it.Join the conversation in the chat and let us know: Did TV kill the truth?The series highlights the shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk during a college campus event in September as a stark symbol of this decline, with examples from ancient history as well as modern debates, where speech is increasingly treated as violence. It then dives into what the host calls the most insidious symptom: the corruption of high school debate programs.Focusing on the National Speech & Debate Association (NSDA), the video explores claims of Marxist/far-left infiltration, biased judges, woke influences, and a shift away from merit-based argumentation toward identity politics and critical theory—undermining the training ground for future civic leaders like politicians, lawyers, and journalists.Video covered in this episode: https://youtu.be/SoD5dkOh-kc?si=sGEl2LBjUznHJp8rGood News Roundup Source: https://www.goodnewsnetwork.org/ Disclaimer: This show may include copyrighted material for educational purposes that are intended to fall under the "fair use" guidelines of Section 107 of the Copyright Act.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 55: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: So would you like to collapse the Trump Regime? Today? Peacefully? Legally? You - the White House press corps. It only takes one of you. You go into the next Oval Office Scrum, and you ask him politely for his explanation of something released by his administration, by Pam Bondi’s office, on the government website, and you read – quoting this FBI 302 interview file: “Maxwell presented (her) to Trump…by the things Maxwell said, it was clear that (she) was available…”And don’t stop reading and don’t make eye contact. THEN from the sworn affidavit, reed, quote: “I personally witnessed Defendant Trump telling the plaintiff that she couldn’t ever say anything, if she didn’t want to disappear like the 12-year old female (redacted) and that he was capable of having her whole family killed…” Quote: “the physical and sexual abuse that I personally witnessed of minor females at the hands of Mr. Trump and Mr. Epstein... under penalty of perjury even though I fully understand that the life of myself and my family is now in grave danger” unquote, what SIR is your explanation SIR about when you threatened this girl’s life, sir. Just keep asking. Don't make eye contact, don't stop, don't stop talking when he starts talking. Just reel off those quotes. And the one about becoming fertilizer. And the "Calendar Girls" story (as nonsensical as that probably is). And all the others. Because we don't always see the escape hatch when it appears before us, and it just appeared. Because the Epstein Files are part of an official Department of Justice Document Dump. Their contents are Pam Bondi's problem, not you or your lawyer's. And if you don't bear down and do this job as it was designed by the Founding Fathers, you will sooner or later face one of these outcomes: you'll be arrested, you'll be replaced by some automaton Bari Weiss likes, or the country will survive and the next people running media will never consider you for work because you were cowardly when we needed your courage. Oh and you can peacefully, legally end the careers of Elon Musk and Marco Rubio and Bari Weiss and lots of others. The material is all in front of you. Just have the courage to pick it up and fling it, like he'd fling his poo at you. ALSO: Don Lemon was arrested not because Jesus but because Trump has always hated him. And if you've forgotten, I explained two weeks ago why Trump was trying to restart the 2020 crap, now sending Tulsi Gabbard to Georgia. They're sitting up not a claim that the election was fixed, but that the election was fixed by another country (hey, Nicolas Maduro, you mind taking the rap, in exchange for a pardon?) and there is no statute of limitations on THAT. B-Block (34:55) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Harriet Hageman, the blob they elected to the House from Wyoming to replace Liz Cheney, is now running for Senate. Emphasize "running": she has fled a town hill. The Bill Maher Pretzel Logic: Celebrities should shut up, voters don't listen to TV and movie stars. But Bill, you expect them to listen to you. So you're saying you're not a star? And the latest Bari Weiss firing target is supposedly Face The Nation host Margaret Brennan and one of the names being thrown around (probably nonsensically) is Matt Lauer. C-Block (54:00) MONDAYS WITH THURBER: We need a doubleheader. I heard an audio book with a famous actor doing Thurber's tribute to what would be called Dunning-Kruger Syndrome: "The Macbeth Murder Mystery" and it was one of those rare times when I actually said "No - I did this better." So I bring it to you, and as a bonus, a second great unheralded Thurber story: "Meet Birdey Doggett." Enjoy them at your leisure.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The American Revolution was three wars rolled into one: a fight for independence, a civil conflict, and a struggle between nations. In this conversation with David M. Rubenstein, bestselling author Geoffrey Ward examines the many sides of the war through the stories of not just the Founding Fathers, but the soldiers, women, Loyalists, and others whose lives—and country—were forever changed by the movement. Recorded on December 12, 2025

When one looks at the signatories of the Declaration of Independence, among the soaring prose and clear indictment against the British crown, one name stands out from the others: John Hancock.  Clearly, we know he was a Founding Father and most know he was the first to sign the great document.  But beyond that, he is one of the least studied of the Founders.  Today, we change that.  To help in this challenge to shed light on him we are delighted to welcome as our  special guest Robert Allison, Professor of History at Suffolk University, president of the Colonial Society of Massachusetts and chair of Revolution 250.

John Jay vs. the Mob reveals why the rule of law is the foundation that keeps a republic from collapsing into chaos. When mobs decide which laws apply, liberty does not expand, it disappears. This episode of America's Founding Series tells the gripping story of John Jay, a Founding Father who understood that freedom is threatened not only by tyrants, but by organized mobs that reject the legitimacy of law itself. From the streets of 18th-century New York to the unrest unfolding today in Minnesota, this episode explores how mob rule, selective enforcement, and fear of public pressure endanger the Republic. John Jay's life offers a warning that is more relevant now than ever. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why John Jay believed unchecked mobs were just as dangerous as kings How the 1788 New York riot shaped Jay's understanding of liberty and order What the Federalist Papers reveal about restraining all forms of power Why selective law enforcement undermines constitutional government How modern unrest echoes the same threat Jay warned about centuries ago

Clay's favorite guest, Dr. Lindsay Chervinsky, makes her first 2026 appearance to discuss foreign policy in the administrations of George Washington, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson. America's recent incursion into the sovereign nation of Venezuela raises questions about the war powers in America. The Founding Fathers were adamant that Congress (not the executive) must initiate wars, and vote funds to pay for them, too. We discuss the crisis of the French Revolution in America, Washington's famous Farewell Address in 1796, the Quasi-War with France during the John Adams administration, and Adams' heroic decision to seek peace rather than war with the French Republic. We explore Jefferson's idealism as voiced in a letter he wrote in 1799 and his famous First Inaugural Address in 1801. Jefferson believed it was too late in the world's history to solve our disputes through bloodshed, and yet he sent marines and a naval squadron to North Africa to bloody the nose of the Pasha of Tripoli. This episode was recorded on January 5, 2026.

In this week's POSC Podcast, guest minister Chaplain Jim Bontrager delivers a bold, sobering, and hope-filled message titled “A Call to Action.” Speaking as a chaplain, historian, and servant of God, Chaplain Bontrager challenges the church to recognize the urgency of the moment and the responsibility believers carry in this pivotal hour of American history. Drawing from Scripture, American history, and personal testimony, this message confronts the spiritual roots behind cultural confusion, moral decline, and societal unrest. Chaplain Bontrager reminds listeners that freedom is not the absence of restraint, but the presence of self-governance under God. True liberty, he teaches, flows from the work of the Holy Spirit transforming hearts—not from political systems, ideology, or human effort. With clarity and conviction, this teaching weaves together biblical truth, the foundations of the United States, and the church's role as stewards of freedom. From the writings of the Founding Fathers to the warnings of Scripture, listeners are called to wake up, stand firm, and refuse spiritual apathy. The message emphasizes that while the world may be acting as expected, the church must rise as salt and light—bringing hope, truth, and courage to a searching generation. At its core, “A Call to Action” is a rallying cry for personal responsibility, spiritual resilience, and wholehearted surrender. Bro. Bontrager reminds believers that hardship is often God's training ground, that faith is forged through perseverance, and that God is still looking for men and women willing to stand in the gap and say, “Here I am, send me.” This message will challenge complacency, strengthen conviction, and reignite purpose—calling every listener to live boldly for Christ, right where God has placed them, for such a time as this.

Perhaps there is no greater archetype of the American Dream than Benjamin Franklin in the founding generation.  A printer's apprentice, he rose to become a writer, statesman and scientist.  Along the way, he helped draft and sign the Declaration of Independence and the U. S. Constitution and became our country's first postmaster general and served as an ambassador to France.  As we celebrate our country's 250th birthday this year, we are delighted to have a chance to chat with Dr. Franklin, wonderfully portrayed by David Holland of the American Historical Theatre.

The Agency Brief Note ♻️ THE NATIONAL FIREARMS ACT (1934) (Cold Open) "In 1934, Congress looked at a few gangsters with Tommy guns and decided to put every future gun owner on probation… forever… without ever proving we did anything wrong." (The Brief) THE ORIGIN STORY: PANIC AND OPPORTUNISM The Setup: Prohibition ends in 1933. Federal agencies face budget cuts. They need a new war. They choose "The War on Crime." The Hook: DOJ uses the St. Valentine's Day Massacre to sell a "gangster gun" crisis. The Bait & Switch: The NFA was pitched as a tax on "criminal weapons," but the original bill attempted to register all handguns. The NRA (back when they were Fudds) helped kill the handgun portion but let the rest slide. Crucial Detail: SBR/SBS restrictions were only in the bill to prevent people from hiding pistols. When pistols were removed, Congress left the SBR rules in. We are regulating barrel length today because of a 1934 legislative error. THE MECHANISM: A BAN DISGUISED AS A TAX The "Poll Tax": They couldn't ban guns (2A exists), so they used the Taxing Power. The Cost: $200 in 1934. Inflation Adjustment: That is roughly $4,500 today. Intent: It was an economic ban designed to ensure only the wealthy could own modern firepower. The Registry: The true goal was the NFRTR (National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record). Registration is always the prerequisite for confiscation. THE LEGAL COVER-UP: U.S. V. MILLER (1939) The Supreme Court case that upheld the NFA was a setup. The Fix: The defendant, Jack Miller, was dead before the decision was handed down. His court-appointed attorney did not show up to argue the case. The Ruling: The Government argued unopposed that a sawed-off shotgun had no "militia utility." The Court agreed, solely because no one was there to tell them otherwise. THE MODERN IMPACT & REGULATORY CREEP 1986 Hughes Amendment: Proved the danger of registries. Congress used the NFA list to ban all new machine guns for civilians. Note: The Hughes Amendment passed on a fraudulent voice vote where the "Nays" clearly had it, but the Speaker pushed it through. ATF Power Grabs: The NFA definitions are vague. This allows the ATF to write law without Congress (e.g., Pistol Braces, Bump Stocks, Triggers). Culture War: It normalized the "Two-Tier" system. The wealthy buy what they want; the poor get what they are given. CONSTITUTIONAL ANALYSIS (POST-BRUEN) The Vulnerability: Under the Bruen test (Text, History, Tradition), the NFA is on death's door. The History: There is zero historical tradition of the Founding Fathers taxing the ownership of standard arms or creating a federal list of owners. The Argument: The government claims these weapons are "dangerous and unusual." We argue they are only unusual because the government has spent 90 years threatening to put us in prison for owning them. WLS is Lifestyle Cold Weather and Medical Prep for Vehicles Amid Michigan Pile-Up ♻️ Article or segment discussing vehicle preparation for cold weather, including medical supplies, in light of a major pile-up incident in Michigan. Submitted by Shawn. Availability: Focuses on practical advice for winter driving safety and emergency preparedness following the Michigan multi-vehicle collision. Special: Combines real-world Michigan pile-up example with actionable vehicle medical and cold weather prep tips.

New York Targets Polymer80 Seller, Life Sentence ♻️ New York authorities are pursuing severe legal action against a seller of Polymer80 ghost gun kits, seeking a life sentence, highlighting aggressive enforcement against unserialized firearm components.

Some Anti-ICE Protesters in Minnesota Are Openly Carrying: What Does the Law Say? ♻️ Article discusses anti-ICE protesters in Minnesota openly carrying firearms and examines the relevant state laws on open carry. Everytown Is Lying About Impact of National Reciprocity, Again ♻️ Article accuses Everytown for Gun Safety of misrepresenting the effects of national concealed carry reciprocity legislation, claiming their arguments exaggerate risks and ignore benefits for law-abiding gun owners. ATF/DEA Merger Appears DOA ♻️ Reports indicate that plans to merge the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) are effectively dead on arrival (DOA), halting a proposed consolidation of federal law enforcement agencies. NC Lawmakers Dragging Their Feet on Constitutional Carry ♻️ North Carolina lawmakers are delaying progress on constitutional carry legislation, frustrating gun rights advocates amid ongoing debates over permitless carry.
