Is America still the land of the free, like the national anthem says? Or is it becoming a very different country? Glenn Ellmers joins Charlie to lay out how a new, more insidious, American-style version of totalitarianism is creeping up all over the country, one that exploits science and relies on the incomprehensible concepts of post-modernism.Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When the ruling class started targeting law-and-order Americans, it was a sign the country was undergoing a profound shift. And now according to author Glenn Ellmers, it's time for conservatives to rethink their place in U.S. society.   In this provocative episode of Over the Target, Lee Smith speaks with Claremont Fellow Glenn Ellmers about his new book “The Narrow Passage” and how the right can fight the current crisis.   ⭕️ Watch in-depth videos based on Truth & Tradition at Epoch TV

Why is the modern left so profoundly insane and mentally unstable? The Claremont Institute's Glenn Ellmers has a new book arguing that it's rooted in a critical contradiction at the core of leftist thought. On the one hand, liberals revere "experts" who claim to possess special knowledge and elite credentials...but on the other hand, the left adheres to impenetrable postmodern nonsense which rejects the entire idea of factual truth. Glenn and Charlie have a far-ranging philosophical conversation that goes all the way back to Plato, and even makes the unlikely case that conservatives have something to learn from Michel Foucault.Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

John Yoo is away overseas this week, so Steve and Lucretia are joined by Glenn Ellmers, author of the brand new book The Narrow Passage: Plato, Foucault, and the Possibilty of Political Philosophy. Do not be intimidated by the mention of Foucault or anything else in the title, as this crispy-written and very accessible book comes in at a reader-friendly 79 pages (Glenn admits that it began as an essay that grew a little out of control). It sheds a lot of light on our current culture war, which is really a continuation of the ructions in the country from the left that began in the 1960s but fooled us by receding briefly in the shadows for a time when the Cold War ended. More than that, though, the roots of our current contentions trace all the way back to Plato, and from whom we may also find some answers. As as we say, all this in 79 pages!Steve and Lucretia also dilate the Farce of the Week in Washington, the latest lower court rulings that look like promising attacks on the administrative state, and why the Equal Protection Clause was such a mess at the Supreme Court for 150 years, contra Alan Dershowitz's argument that Earl Warren had it right all along. No sale!

Pushing anti-human initiatives—from the climate change agenda to vaccine passports, and from universal surveillance to a two-tier justice system—globalist bureaucrats believe they're on the verge of total victory. But not so fast, say the world's working men and women: we've just begun to fight. And like that, the ruling class from Davos to Washington is on notice.

As more and more of our institutions fall prey to the woke agenda, what exactly are conservatives trying to conserve? Today's episode of The Kevin Roberts Show explores the demise of America's cultural institutions, the importance of our philosophical roots, and the beginning of a counter-revolutionary moment."Glenn Ellmers holds a Ph.D. in politics from Claremont Graduate University and has focused much of his work on considering the role of statesmanship; begging the question: “Is ‘conservatism' enough?” A student of the late Harry V. Jaffa, Glenn explores these complex topics and more in the first comprehensive examination of his teacher's vast body of work: The Soul of Politics: Harry V. Jaffa and the Fight for America. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Dr. Glenn Elmers, Ph.D. has written a definitive biography, based on a wide swath of primary sources (innumerable letters, publications, other writings) of the late great Dr. Harry Jaffa, Ph.D. It's called "The Soul of Politics: Harry V. Jaffa and the Fight for America." Jaffa was a preeminent scholar of the birth of the Republican Party, what that had to do with the US Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, and before that classical philosophy, Jerusalem, the end of slavery in America, as well its enduring relevance to the modern disputes over the nature and size of the administrative state, e.g., during the Republican Convention at Cow Palace, San Fransisco in 1964. Love him or hate him, it's impossible to be indifferent to the man and the weighty issues he made the subject of his life's work. Dr. Glenn Elmers has done the careful spade work and shares it gladly on this special July 4th episode of The Republican Professor (2022). Please support your local bookstore.

The Know Your Enemy podcast recently accused Claremont of misunderstanding the old civil war, and irresponsibly predicting--or perhaps yearning for--a new one.

Jordan Peterson took the intellectual world by storm in 2016, bursting on the scene in a way not seen by a non-leftist thinker since Allan Bloom in the late 1980s. His idiosyncratic mix of Jungian psychology, existential philosophy, and common-sense self-help advice (also lobsters!) as expressed in his best-seller 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos, is hard to sort out at times. Glenn Ellmers, one of our favorite recent authors (who also got a long notice from Thomas Byrne Edsall’s latest New York Times column this week), took a deep dive into “the Jordan Peterson phenomenon” in the Claremont Review of Books back in 2018, having attended one of Peterson’s live appearances in Washington DC. Above all, we marvel at how Peterson cooly flummoxes his critics and media interlocutors, as in the justly notorious TV interview with the obtuse Cathy Newman in Britain in 2018. One thing the enthusiastic response to Peterson demonstrates is how large is the void of sensible intellectual and moral thought available especially to young people. Peterson’s capacious and eclectic approach to communicating is an implicit reproach to conservatives who reside too narrowly in policy wonkery and stale cliches. Can Peterson be imitated or replicated? Probably not, but there are some general lessons to be learned from his example. Did you know there is actually a Jordan Peterson drinking song? It was the obvious choice for exit music for a podcast organized around whisky.

Almost completely ignored by conservative media, there is a growing generation gap emerging within young conservatives that in some ways resembles the “generation gap” of the 1960s which saw the new left “hippie” generation emerge from liberal homes, as Midge Decter explained in her early book Liberal Parents, Radical Children. Now it is happening on the right. I started picking up on this story with Michael Anton’s long essay almost three years ago on the phenomenon of the underground but highly popular book Bronze Age Mindset, which, it must be said, is a very different book from The Conservative Mind or The Road to Serfdom. Then I started following a group of mostly younger conservatives who participate actively on Twitter, and sometimes live in the “Spaces” chat communities that Twitter has launched. Most of this younger cohort participate under a pseudonym, because in the age of cancel culture their politically incorrect views, and moreover their transgressive humor (they actually make George Floyd jokes, which is worse than Helen Keller or Anne Frank jokes), would get them instantly censored if not worse. I reached out to one of the ring leaders of this circle, “Athenian Stranger” on Twitter (@athens_stranger) and rounded five of these mostly younger figures to agree to come on this podcast to explain their disgust with our “woke republic.” Since I’m a stodgy baby boomer, I recruited Glenn Ellmers, author of The Soul of Politics, to join me as the special guest-host for the episode. He and Joshua Lippincott have just this week published an important article about this topic, “Boomers, Meet the Based.” The other four participants are “Astral” (who goes by @Astrikos10 on twitter), Aionian, “Lucky” (Resurrected Luck), and Doug Kuular. Settle in for a long conversation. We had some technical difficulties with recording this large a group, and thus there are some abrupt edits throughout on account of sudden crashes and disconnections. But it couldn’t be helped.  Glenn and I do a short “postgame show” at the end to try to tie some loose ends together.

  Many of us have learned a lot about ourselves and the people around us over the past two years. We've had plenty of opportunity to see who is willing to stand for his or her beliefs. Moving ahead, Allan Stevo advises to separate yourselves from those lacking courage and group yourself with the courageous. Why is courage such a rare thing to encounter today? Paul Rosenberg has a terrific explanation on why the West has no backbone: We've forgotten the reasons why we once valued the virtues we once held. After so many years of MSM pooh-poohing the idea of false flag operations as so much 'conspiracy theory' twaddle, they are certainly pushing the idea that Russia is about to launch one. Caitlin Johnstone explains why this is such a sharp pivot from the usual party line and how it proves we cannot trust official pronouncements. Refusal to accept the "new normal" as normal isn't a sign of anti-social thinking. It's the duty of each person who retains the power to love what's good and noble. Glenn Ellmers has a great take on resisting the new normal and its accompanying assault on reason.

Next Tuesday, Encounter Books will publish Glenn Ellmers’ magisterial intellectual biography The Soul of Politics: Harry Jaffa and the Fight for America, and Glenn joins us this week to walk through some of the highlights in the book in what is turning out to be a month-long “Jaffapalooza.” Naturally, we draw Glenn into our running argument about the problems of communicating the proper understanding of the principle of equality in an age of raging “equity,” which is not the same thing. But from there we move on to surveying the capacious mind of Jaffa, including his excellent but overlooked work on Shakespeare, and how, over course of 40 years, he changed his mind about Lincoln and the American Founding. Glenn had access to a large number of Jaffa’s early letters and papers that no one has seen before, such as his extensive correspondence with Leo Strauss and Joseph Cropsey (among others) over the years.

Glenn Ellmers, author of "The Soul of Politics: Harry V. Jaffa and the Fight for America," joins the Anchoring Truths Podcast to discuss the singular contributions of Jaffa to our understanding of the moral ground of the American regime. Topics include how Jaffa and JWI Founder Hadley Arkes overlap in their views on morality and law, the fight over conservatism in America since World War II, and Jaffa's recasting of Lincoln as the securer of the Founding.

Glenn Ellmers, Senior Fellow at the Claremont Institute, and author of the book, "The Soul of Politics: Harry V. Jaffa and the Fight for America", on why Harry Jaffa matters, and the fight against America's founding principles by the progressive left.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The simple answer is no, but particularly if you are talking about Lincolnian nationalism and the "proposition nation," the favorite projects of the Claremont/Hillsdale school of "conservatism." You can't conserve anything with that as your core argument. Glenn Ellmers agrees that conservatism is a lost cause, and he calls for some type of local action to arrest the heavy hand of Washington, D.C., but he doesn't understand that his he and his friends are part of the problem, not the solution.

What does Tucker Carlson believe? In this episode, we explore that question through the lens of three different interviews conducted on the Tucker Carlson Today podcast, featuring a murderer's row of guests to help Tucker try and figure out, "what is conservatism?"First, Glenn Ellmers guides us through some grievance-laden Civil War edging. Then, Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk makes an impassioned case against the existence of dollar stores, and finally, Jordan Peterson sets in motion his nefarious plans to destroy Captain America. 

Glenn Ellmers is questioning the value of Union. That alone is a big step for neoconservatives. He wrote a tortured piece questioning if the Union--"Unity"--is still worth it. Of course, he had to fall back on typical neoconservative Lincoln worship, but at least some progress is being made in regard to real American decentralization.

This special 250th episode of the Power Line podcast offers a twist on our Three Whisky Happy Hour format, as Lucretia and I put aside our Glen Livet in favor of talking with Glenn Ellmers. Glenn is a senior fellow of the Claremont Institute, research fellow at Hillsdale College, author of a forthcoming biography of Harry Jaffa entitled The Soul of Politics, and author of several recent articles at The American Mind on the state of the conservative movement today that are raising eyebrows and blood-pressure counts. The most controversial recent piece is “‘Conservatism’ Is No Longer Enough.” It throws down a basic challenge about whether there is much left to “conserve” in American institutions and culture right now without a serious counter-revolutionary effort. It drew the attention of Tucker Carlson earlier this week: you can see a short preview for the episode here. Our conversation ranges  widely over what prudence demands, and whether conservatives ought to support an Article V constitutional convention to discuss formal secession or other changes to restore constitutional government. Conservatives have always feared any such effort might lead to a “runaway convention,” but at this point a runaway convention might be the best case scenario. As whisky drinkers know, the apex of Glen Livet is their “Founders Reserve” bottlings; you might say the apex here is “Glenn Ellmers Preserving Founders.” And then for the last few minutes Lucretia and get back to our whiskies, preview a couple new ones, review the latest Ashli Babbit magic number, and celebrate that Berkeley is finally going to hire a professor of cannabis research after all these years.
