Dr. Judy Shelton, senior fellow at the Independent Institute and author of "Good as Gold: How To Unleash The Power of Sound Money," explains why the U.S. stands at a monetary crossroads requiring fundamental reform. She critiques the Federal Reserve's practice of paying banks billions not to lend, the distortionary effects of currency manipulation in international trade, and the moral implications of a 2% inflation target that systematically erodes savings. Shelton argues for auditing the Fed, restoring accountability, and considering gold-linked bonds as a path toward sound money, which she describes as a foundational element of economic liberty consistent with America's founding principles.Sponsor: This episode is brought to you by Monetary Metals. https://monetary-metals.com/julia Links: Book: https://www.independent.org/store/book.asp?id=143X: https://x.com/judyshel0:00 Introduction of Dr. Judy Shelton1:01 Overview of monetary crossroads and need for reform4:23 Discussion of needed monetary reforms and Fed critique6:36 Analysis of Fed's interest rate mechanism8:58 Explanation of Fed payments to financial institutions11:25 International monetary impacts and currency distortions13:34 Sound money as moral contract and possibility16:31 Historical support for gold standard from past presidents19:56 Critique of Fed's 2% inflation target22:09 Question about Fed serving public interest25:03 Central bank accountability issues27:51 Gold-linked bonds proposal30:22 Closing remarks and where to find her work

With President Donald Trump bent on initiating a trade war by hiking tariffs on imports from major trading partners such as China, Mexico, and Canada, an infamous piece of legislation passed in 1930 is piquing Americans' curiosity. The Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act imposed the highest duties in U.S. history on roughly one-fourth of all imports. It contributed to a steep falloff in global trade and exacerbated the Great Depression. Just when world commerce needed stimulation, many countries erected tariff barriers, often in retaliation for Smoot-Hawley. In this episode, economic historian Phillip Magness of the Independent Institute delves into the reasons why U.S. leaders once believed high tariffs were beneficial and how the executive branch obtained broad power to manipulate tariffs in the decades since.

Woodrow Wilson or Franklin D. Roosevelt: which president was worse for free speech? In August, FIRE posted a viral X thread, arguing that Woodrow Wilson may be America's worst-ever president for free speech. Despite the growing recognition of Wilson's censorship, there was a professor who wrote a recent book on FDR's free speech record, arguing that FDR was worse. Representing the Wilson side in our discussion is Christopher Cox, author of the new book, “Woodrow Wilson: The Light Withdrawn.” Cox is a former member of the House of Representatives, where he served for 17 years, including as chair of the Homeland Security Committee. He is currently a senior scholar in residence at the University of California, Irvine. Representing the FDR side is professor David T. Beito, a Research Fellow at the Independent Institute and Professor Emeritus at the University of Alabama. He is the author of a number of books, his latest being “The New Deal's War on the Bill of Rights: The Untold Story of FDR's Concentration Camps, Censorship, and Mass Surveillance.” Read the transcript.

“Ethnic studies” is an ideological battleground in higher education, and now California is bringing its 1.6 million high school students into the fray. Every one of them must take an ethnic studies course to graduate, starting in the fall of 2025. But what will the course teach them? The State Department of Education's original model curriculum—now candidly dubbed the “Liberated Ethnic Studies Curriculum”—was criticized for its anti-capitalist agenda, embrace of critical-race themes, and alleged antisemitism. Reaction was so intense that Governor Gavin Newsom vetoed the original curricular mandate legislation. A second State Model Curriculum toned down some of the original emphases. The final legislation signed by the governor had a local-option twist: school districts are free to determine the ethnic studies curriculum used in their schools. As a result, the skirmish over ethnic studies can now be replayed district by district. Independent Institute has created what it calls a balanced curriculum for the consideration of districts throughout the state. The “Comparative Cultures Ethnic Studies Curriculum” portrays the full tableau of American ethnic history, dark moments as well as instances of triumph and personal success. It explores contending schools of thought. Animated not by ideology but by balance, this curriculum builds on years of research and pedagogical insight. This panel will include a survey of California's ethnic studies controversy, and presentation of the "Comparative Cultures Ethnic Studies Curriculum" by its project leader Williamson M. Evers, followed by a panel discussion and Q&A. This program is part of our American Values Series, underwritten by Taube Philanthropies. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Tom welcomes a well known and interesting guest for the first time to the show, Dr. Judy Shelton. Judy is Senior Fellow at the Independent Institute and author of Good as Gold, passionately advocates for sound money as a moral obligation of governments to their citizens. Sound money, according to Shelton, should maintain its value over time, acting as an unchanging standard for economic planning and transactions. She criticizes the Federal Reserve's policy of debasing the U.S. dollar through inflation targeting, which undermines its purchasing power and creates inequality in society. The Federal Reserve was initially established to provide an elastic currency that addressed seasonal economic fluctuations. However, the role of the Fed has shifted significantly over time, leading to concerns about its growing dependence on the government for budgeting needs and potential consequences for the economy and small businesses. Shelton argues for market-determined interest rates, pointing to historical examples like the gold standard. She also highlights the importance of accurate data in monetary policy decision-making and critiques central banks' conflicting policies on a global scale that can lead to currency wars and instability in international trade. Shelton advocates for a new international monetary system anchored by a gold convertible long-term US Treasury bond, which would promote stability and accountability in international transactions. She recalls her unsuccessful nomination to the Federal Reserve and expresses her belief that economic growth under President Trump's agenda and Elon Musk's involvement could lead to controlling the budget and promoting sound money. Shelton urges for less central planning by governments, believing there is a collective yearning for trustworthy, stable money in society. The interview concludes with Dr. Judy Shelton expressing her gratitude for the opportunity to discuss her ideas and the success of her book "Good as Gold" on Amazon's charts. She encourages listeners to get radical and demand sound money from their governments for a more prosperous economy based on individual liberty.

Myers. It was a Category 3 storm and left more than 3 million homes and businesses without power. It also spawned numerous deadly tornadoes. It's bad in many areas, but it could've been much worse. Thankfully, the storm picked up speed, going from 10mph to 16mph which helped it move across the peninsula instead of slowing down or stalling. Story here: https://apnews.com/article/hurricane-milton-tampa-florida-5f6a112986eb6e21720f0f17c504afe8 (8:20am) Do we give up our rights in an emergency, like a hurricane or tornado? Tampa's mayor said a weird guy who wanted to ride out the hurricane could've been arrested "for his own protection." The gentleman who goes by the name of Lieutenant Dan, in honor of the Forrest Gump character, went viral for refusing to evacuate in favor of riding out the storm on his boat moored in Tampa Bay.

Myers. It was a Category 3 storm and left more than 3 million homes and businesses without power. It also spawned numerous deadly tornadoes. Areas from Tampa Bay over to Daytona Beach got over a foot of rain. Damage included the roof being torn off of Tropicana Field, home of the Tampa Bay Rays. It's bad in many areas, but it could've been much worse. Thankfully, the storm picked up speed, going from 10mph to 16mph which helped it move across the peninsula instead of slowing down or stalling.

Economist Judy Shelton, a senior fellow at the Independent Institute, discusses her new book: Good As Gold, How To Unlease The Power Of Sound Money. From the Independent Institute: She's one of the few economists bold enough to challenge the inflationary policies of the Federal Reserve, emphasizing how today's policies enrich elites at the expense of—you guessed it—poor and middle-class Americans. This, Shelton insists, must end. And it can end—easily.

David T. Beito's most recent book, and the subject of this conversation, is The New Deal's War On the Bill of Rights: The Untold Story of FDR's Concentration Camps, Censorship, and Mass Surveillance (buy it through the link!), published by the Independent Institute in 2023. The presidency of Franklin Delano Roosevelt and the New Deal have now largely passed from living memory. When I was in junior high school in the 1970s, however, many of the teachers had not only lived through the New Deal but remembered it as an almost sacred moment. We watched scratchy black-and-white movies in class about the great success of FDR's New Deal in ending the Great Depression, the soundtrack blaring with “Happy Days Are Here Again.” David Beito's book is about the dark side of all that, the almost crazy abuse of American civil liberties under FDR's administration. FDR's Congressional allies, including future Supreme Court Justices Hugo Black and Sherman Minton, rifled through individual tax returns and more than 3 million Western Union telegrams to find dirt on outspoken opponents of the New Deal. They proposed criminalizing "false" news. They used regulatory power and private coercion to drive virtually any criticism of the New Deal from the new medium of radio. And, finally, they put more than 100,000 Americans of Japanese descent into concentration camps built by the famous Works Progress Administration, and kept them there long after any argument for military necessity had passed. And that isn't the end of it by any means! And please listen to the last part, in which we discuss the frosty even if perhaps unsurprising silence with which academic historians have responded to David's excellent book.

Karl Marx died in obscurity in 1883, with only about a dozen people attending his funeral. Even socialist magazines took little notice of him at the time, says Phillip Magness, an economic historian and senior fellow at the Independent Institute. So how is it that he became such a major figure decades later?Magness decided to find out. In this episode, he breaks down his research into the origins of the popularity of Karl Marx.“What really put Marx on the intellectual map was not the weight of his contributions in Das Kapital. It's not him engaging in major debates. It's actually a political event,” Magness says.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

Schorr writes: “In his book, Smerconish argued against a Department of Transportation policy that ‘precluded more than two individuals of any particular ethnicity from being singled out at the same time for secondary screening at airports.'” You can read the full story here: https://www.mediaite.com/news/cnns-michael-smerconish-disinvited-from-college-commencement-over-comments-from-2004/ 4:20pm- After leaving court on Monday, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump revealed that his “hush money” trial may last another 2 to 3 weeks—which will keep him off the campaign trail. 4:40pm- George Leef of National Review writes: “Let's look at the new California minimum wage law for workers in fast food businesses and see how it has been working out. Professor Lee Ohanian has done some digging and writes about his findings in [his] piece for Independent Institute.

Ukraine received assistance immediately—why was Israel forced to wait?
The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (05/06/2024): 3:05pm- While speaking briefly with the press on Monday prior to entering court in New York City, President Donald Trump said the gag order imposed on him by Judge Juan Merchan is “not fair” and argued that the scope of the gag order infringes upon his constitutional right to free speech. On Monday, Judge Merchan fined Trump $1,000 for violating the gag order and emphasized that continued violations could result in Trump being sent to jail. 3:15pm- On Monday, former Press Secretary—and current MSNBC host—Jen Psaki stated that she did not believe it's necessary for President Joe Biden to do more press conferences in order to win reelection in 2024. 3:40pm- David Gelman—Defense Attorney & Former Prosecutor—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his work as a legal surrogate for former President Donald Trump and the Trump 2024 Campaign.

Ukraine received assistance immediately—why was Israel forced to wait? 5:00pm- In his Wall Street Journal editorial, Ralph Reed writes about the media's continued attempts to smear Christians in America. He explains: “House Speaker Mike Johnson stared down anti-Israel protesters at Columbia University last month and affirmed the nation's support for Jewish students. His remarks were sharp and unequivocal, a welcome contrast with university officials' hand-wringing and the Biden administration's feeble response to the antisemitism sweeping across the states. Yet rather than give him credit, Democrats and the press for months have fixated on Mr. Johnson's background as a ‘Christian nationalist.' The New Republic claimed he'd been ‘groomed by the Christian right' in ‘secretive circles' to ‘rule the United States according to ‘biblical values.'' Robert Jones, president of the Public Religion Research Institute, described Mr. Johnson as ‘the embodiment of white Christian nationalism in a tailored suit.'” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-smear-campaign-against-christian-nationalists-faith-freedom-f3954994?mod=opinion_lead_pos5 5:30pm- The Toobin Missile Crisis!

And on Sunday night, Netflix hosted their roast of former NFL quarterback Tom Brady. 6:05pm- While speaking briefly with the press on Monday prior to entering court in New York City, President Donald Trump said the gag order imposed on him by Judge Juan Merchan is “not fair” and argued that the scope of the gag order infringes upon his constitutional right to free speech. On Monday, Judge Merchan fined Trump $1,000 for violating the gag order and emphasized that continued violations could result in Trump being sent to jail. 6:15pm- On Monday, former Press Secretary—and current MSNBC host—Jen Psaki stated that she did not believe it's necessary for President Joe Biden to do more press conferences in order to win reelection in 2024. 6:20pm- After leaving court on Monday, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump revealed that his “hush money” trial may last another 2 to 3 weeks—which will keep him off the campaign trail. 6:25pm- In a soon to be released book, South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem reveals that she shot and killed a 14-month-old dog and a goat after the two animals misbehaved. Republicans and Democrats alike have rightfully spoken out against her actions, though she has defended herself explaining the incident is proof she is capable of making tough decisions. Did she just end her political career? It certainly seems like it. 6:30pm- Shia Kapos of Politico investigated the source of funding for anti-Israel protests on college campuses. Unsurprisingly, the biggest funders also happen to be some of President Joe Biden's biggest campaign donors—including George Soros and the Pritzker family.

Economist, professor and author Paul Rubin joins Tim to talk about the impact of socialism on the future, particularly among young people who tend to be the most supportive of it, but who stand to lose the most because of it. This is the focus of his new book called, “A Student's Guide to Socialism: How it will trash your lives.” This episode was first released January 4, 2021. https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/shapingopinion/157_-_What_They_Wont_Tell_You_About_Socialism.mp3 If you want to see where socialism has been tried and failed, you don't have to look far. Venezuela is one current-day example. The country sits on one of the world's largest deposits of oil, yet people in that country have to wait in long lines for gas, the prices for gas are high and the quality of life is among the lowest in the world. Or, you could look toward history, from the Soviet Union, to Cuba, to countries from Eastern Europe to South America and Africa. The examples of socialist failure are many. But if you look for examples of where socialism has been successful, you can look, but you won't find many if any. The effects of socialism aren't just a poor standard of living, but massive human misery, that history has shown, has led to the establishment of dictators and small rich oligarchies who rule the masses under the thumb of socialism. At the same time, the concepts of socialism have long had a certain appeal to young people and oppressed peoples. Socialism has a certain seductive quality for some. Paul Rubin has spent decades teaching young generations about basic economic principles, and has spent no small amount of time educating young people on the risks of socialism.

In this episode I talk with Dr. David Beito, who is a research fellow at the Independent Institute and professor emeritus at the University of Alabama, about his brand-new book ‘The New Deal's War on the Bill of Rights', in which he explains how the Roosevelt administration and his supporters systematically eroded Constitutionally-protected rights. Not only do we discuss the Japanese internment camps, but we look at how his administration loyalists spied on American citizens, censored newspapers and radio producers, persecuted black Republicans, and criminally prosecuted World War II dissenters.

President Biden unveiled his latest attempt to cancel student loans during a visit to Wisconsin on Monday to energize young voters. The announcement comes as millions of high school seniors across the country await loan offers due to technical glitches with the new FAFSA program. Federal Student Aid and College Expert Mark Kantrowitz testified at this week's Congressional hearing on FAFSA issues. He explains why the complications behind this year's FAFSA process and discusses the end goal for federal student loan applications. Later, he reacts to President Biden's plan for student loan forgiveness. Taxes are becoming a key campaign issue as Trump-era cuts from 2017 are set to expire at the end of next year. The former president promises to extend them if elected for a second term, yet President Joe Biden promises a new, improved plan to make the ultra-wealthy "pay their fair share" if he returns to the White House in 2025. Biden claims Trump's tax cuts contributed to the nation's crippling debt, however, if they do expire the middle class will be hit the hardest - the demographic the Biden campaign aims to help the most. Senior Fellow at the Independent Institute and Economic Advisor to Former President Trump Judy Shelton joins to break down how an expiration will impact the American people.
