Podcasts about James Monroe

La doctrine Monroe est une vieille idée de politique étrangère américaine… mais qui revient régulièrement sur le devant de la scène, notamment quand il est question de Donald Trump et du Venezuela.À l'origine, la doctrine Monroe est formulée en 1823 par le président américain James Monroe. Son principe est simple et brutal : l'Amérique aux Américains. Autrement dit, les États-Unis déclarent que le continent américain n'est plus une zone d'intervention pour les puissances européennes. En échange, Washington promet de ne pas se mêler des affaires européennes. À l'époque, il s'agit surtout d'empêcher l'Espagne, la France ou le Royaume-Uni de reconquérir leurs anciennes colonies en Amérique latine.Sur le papier, la doctrine Monroe est défensive. Mais avec le temps, elle va être largement réinterprétée. À partir du début du XXᵉ siècle, les États-Unis s'en servent pour justifier leur propre influence, voire leurs interventions, en Amérique centrale et du Sud. Coups d'État soutenus, pressions économiques, interventions militaires : la doctrine Monroe devient un outil de domination régionale, au nom de la stabilité et de la lutte contre les influences étrangères.C'est là que le lien avec Donald Trump apparaît. Lors de sa présidence, Trump et plusieurs membres de son administration ont explicitement invoqué la doctrine Monroe, notamment à propos du Venezuela. Pourquoi ? Parce que le régime de Nicolás Maduro entretient des relations étroites avec des puissances considérées comme rivales par Washington : la Russie, la Chine et l'Iran. Pour les États-Unis, cette présence étrangère en Amérique latine viole l'esprit de la doctrine Monroe.Dans le cas du Venezuela, l'enjeu est à la fois géopolitique et économique. Le pays possède les plus grandes réserves de pétrole prouvées au monde, mais il est plongé dans une crise économique et politique profonde. En soutenant l'opposant Juan Guaidó, en imposant de lourdes sanctions économiques et en menaçant à mots couverts d'une intervention, l'administration Trump s'inscrivait clairement dans une logique : reprendre le contrôle de l'arrière-cour américaine.Ce retour à la doctrine Monroe marque une rupture avec le discours multilatéral classique. Il traduit une vision du monde très transactionnelle et souverainiste : chaque grande puissance aurait sa zone d'influence, et l'Amérique latine resterait celle des États-Unis. Une vision critiquée par de nombreux pays de la région, qui y voient un réflexe impérialiste dépassé.En résumé, si l'on parle aujourd'hui de la doctrine Monroe à propos de Trump et du Venezuela, c'est parce qu'elle incarne une logique ancienne mais toujours active : empêcher toute puissance étrangère de s'implanter durablement en Amérique latine, quitte à peser lourdement sur les choix politiques et économiques des pays concernés. Une doctrine vieille de 200 ans, mais loin d'être enterrée. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Most who talk about the Monroe Doctrine hope you've never read it. In this episode, we go right to the source, James Monroe's message to congress on Dec 2, 1823. Understanding his exact words, placing them alongside George Washington and John Quincy Adams, shows the doctrine as it was understood at the time: restraint and non-intervention.

Establishing the Capital and the Rise of Political Division — Nathaniel Philbrick — Washington selected the Potomac River as the location for the new national capital, believing it would economically connect Western and Eastern commercial interests, despite claims of obvious self-interest regarding Mount Vernon's proximity. As Washington worked deliberately to unite the fractured nation through personal tours and diplomatic engagement, political divisions paradoxically hardened and crystallized; Thomas Jefferson and James Madison organized systematic opposition during a "northern tour," strategically recruiting Philip Freneau to attack the Washingtonadministration. Philbrick notes the historical irony that James Monroe, formerly a critic of Washington, later adopted Washington's touring methodology to heal national divisions during his own presidency. Philbrickconcludes that despite Washington's profound contradictions as a slaveholder and politician, his aspirational effort to create a functioning American Union remains his enduring historical legacy. 1700

The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation on Thursday announced a new plan for operating the Central Valley Project, a vast system of pumps, dams, and canals that direct water southward from the state’s wetter north. It follows an executive order President Donald Trump signed in January calling for more water to flow to farmers, arguing the state was wasting the precious resource in the name of protecting endangered fish species. Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum said the plan will help the federal government “strengthen California’s water resilience.” It takes effect Friday. But California officials and environmental groups blasted the move, saying sending significantly more water to farmlands could threaten water delivery to the rest of the state and would harm salmon and other fish. Most of the state’s water is in the north, but most of its people are in the south.

Representative Nick Begich (AK-At Large) introduced House Joint Resolution 131, stripping Biden-era restrictions on oil and gas exploration in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR). Rep. Begich’s resolution has passed the House of Representatives and the Senate and is headed to President Trump’s desk for signature. Alaska's congressional delegation on Thursday succeeded in stripping Biden-era protections from the coastal plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, moving to expand opportunities for drilling there. The U.S. Senate voted to eliminate the 2024 leasing program for the refuge that put much of the refuge's 1.6-million-acre coastal plain off-limits to potential drilling.  The vote does a lot more than just open the door for potential oil and gas activity.  This is another step in unlocking America’s treasure chest. The areas in question in ANWR are estimated to hold 7.7 billion barrels of oil recoverable with current technology, and the U.S. Geological Survey has estimated that there may be hundreds of millions of barrels in other areas to the west of the ANWR sites.

All efforts to control traditional and social media are efforts to control information. The specifics of the reasoning for the fine are typically European.  (1) Twitter allows ordinary people to deliver information at the same level as people who should be defined as more important.  (2)  Advertisers of those who pay for promotion of information on X are not easily identifiable – people need to figure it out on their own.  (3)  It is too difficult to figure out who is providing the information. Basically, all of the EU concerns center around information control.  It's really an ideology issue.  In the outlook of the EU, bureaucrats and elites feel they are superior and must rule/protect the people under them.  Ordinary people having access to information that may or may not be approved by the EU is the underlying issue.

The Feds charged former DEA Deputy Chief of the Office of Financial Operations Paul Campo and friend Robert Sensi for conspiring to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization. Paul Campo and Robert Sensi were charged with narcoterrorism, terrorism, narcotics distribution, and money laundering charges. Campo and Sensi were arrested on Thursday afternoon in New York, according to the DOJ. Campo and Sensi agreed to launder $12 million and participate in narcotics trafficking for the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, a/k/a Cartel de Jalisco Nueva Generacion or CJNG. Per the Department of Justice: As part of the scheme, CAMPO and SENSI agreed to launder approximately $12,000,000 of CJNG narcotics proceeds; laundered approximately $750,000 by converting cash into cryptocurrency; and provided a payment for approximately 220 kilograms of cocaine on the understanding that the payment would trigger the distribution and sale of the narcotics worth approximately $5,000,000, for which CAMPO and SENSI would (i) receive directly a portion of the narcotics proceeds as profit; and (ii) receive a further commission upon the laundering of the balance of the narcotics proceeds.

During his appearance on Friday on the Sirius XM The Megyn Kelly Show podcast, Kelly started out by asking Patel if they believe they have the “proper suspect in custody” — if Tyler Robinson is “in fact, the man who killed Kirk.” Patel didn’t hesitate in the slightest and answered, “Yes.” The host then brought up one of the wild accusations that have been made by Owens, which includes claiming that Kirk’s own friends and his organization allegedly knew and approved of his murder. Insane. “Do you have any credible reason to believe that anyone connected with the Turning Point organization had anything to do with Charlie’s death?” Kelly asked. Patel’s response: “Zero.” He was then pressed about other claims that Owens has made about the alleged involvement of foreign governments in Kirk’s assassination, like French paratroopers, Egyptian Air Force planes flying out of Provo, Utah, and “potential underground assassins traveling through unseen tunnels,” as the producer of The Charlie Kirk Show, Blake Neff, previously explained. “At this time, the FBI doesn’t have credible information to connect any foreign governments to it,” Patel said. The FBI director made it clear that the investigation is continuing and they are looking into everything, no matter how small. “We are not done just because we arrest someone, just like in the pipe bomber case,” Patel said. “We don’t just say, Okay, we’re done, on to the next. The investigative team continues to work with the Utah authorities, and they’re deriving their own leads and coming back to us saying, ‘Hey, can you look at this piece of information? Can we get a search warrant on this account?

Bondi's order is part of a broader counterterrorism plan after President Donald Trump's directives targeting the Antifa movement and organized political violence, Reuters and Bloomberg Law reported, citing a Thursday memo from Bondi. The FBI must provide within 30 days a list of groups “engaged in acts that may constitute domestic terrorism” along with strategies to disrupt them, with an emphasis on left-wing extremists, the memo reportedly says.  Bondi's memo directs law enforcement agencies to unearth whatever intelligence files they have on Antifa groups for investigators and to investigate unsolved domestic terrorism incidents over the past five years, Reuters and Bloomberg Law reported. The incidents may include the “doxxing” of law enforcement officers' personal information and threats against Supreme Court justices. The FBI must also streamline its tip line to allow members of the public to “send media” on suspected domestic terrorism, the memo says, according to Reuters.

The intent seems to be a return to the Monroe Doctrine by increasing the United States military presence in the Western Hemisphere, taking on the drug cartels, enhancing border security, making trade deals that are better for the United States, and enhancing American energy production. That’s not the worst high-level take on the NSS, but a look at the actual document is illustrative. The NSS states as its purpose: To ensure that America remains the world's strongest, richest, most powerful, and most successful country for decades to come, our country needs a coherent, focused strategy for how we interact with the world. And to get that right, all Americans need to know what, exactly, it is we are trying to do and why. A “strategy” is a concrete, realistic plan that explains the essential connection between ends and means: it begins from an accurate assessment of what is desired and what tools are available, or can realistically be created, to achieve the desired outcomes. A strategy must evaluate, sort, and prioritize. Not every country, region, issue, or cause—however worthy—can be the focus of American strategy. The purpose of  foreign policy is the protection of core national interests; that is the sole focus of this strategy. One of the more interesting (but not surprising) pieces of this NSS is the overt and robust return to the Monroe Doctrine, an early 19th-century policy intended to restrict further European colonization of the Western Hemisphere and to ensure American dominance in that region. The modern take on this doctrine by the Trump administration uses American power by employing both internal and external security measures. The NSS states: American policy should focus on enlisting regional champions that can help create tolerable stability in the region, even beyond those partners' borders. These nations would help us stop illegal and destabilizing migration, neutralize cartels, nearshore manufacturing, and develop local private economies, among other things. We will reward and encourage the region's governments, political parties, and movements broadly aligned with our principles and strategy. But we must not overlook governments with different outlooks with whom we nonetheless share interests and who want to work with us. Source: redstate.com The Monroe Doctrine is a foundational principle of United States foreign policy, first articulated by President James Monroe in his annual message to Congress on December 2, 1823.   It declared that the Western Hemisphere was no longer open to European colonization or interference, while affirming that the U.S. would not meddle in existing European colonies or internal affairs.   Essentially, it warned European powers—particularly those in the Holy Alliance (Russia, Austria, and Prussia)—against attempting to extend their influence or establish new colonies in the Americas, positioning the U.S. as a protector of independent nations in the region The doctrine emerged amid concerns over European monarchies potentially aiding Spain in reconquering its former Latin American colonies, which had recently gained independence. It was largely drafted by Secretary of State John Quincy Adams and reflected growing American confidence following the War of 1812.  At the time, the U.S. lacked the military power to enforce it fully, so it relied on British naval support, as Britain also opposed European rivals in the Americas for trade reasons.Key excerpts from Monroe’s address include: The American continents “are henceforth not to be considered as subjects for future colonization by any European powers.” Any attempt by Europe to extend its political system to the Western Hemisphere would be viewed as “dangerous to our peace and safety.”   Significance and EvolutionInitially more symbolic than enforceable, the Monroe Doctrine evolved into a justification for U.S. intervention in Latin America during the 19th and 20th centuries. For instance: In the mid-1800s, it intertwined with Manifest Destiny to support U.S. territorial expansion, such as during the Mexican-American War.  President Theodore Roosevelt’s 1904 “Corollary” expanded it to allow U.S. intervention in Latin American countries to prevent European involvement, leading to actions like the occupation of Cuba and the Dominican Republic. It influenced Cold War policies, framing U.S. opposition to communism in the hemisphere as a defense against external threats. Critics, especially in Latin America, have viewed it as a tool for U.S. imperialism, enabling dominance over sovereign nations. Though less invoked today, it remains a symbol of U.S. hemispheric influence and anti-colonial rhetoric. facebook.com https://twitter.com/onechancefreedm/status/1996970776373735933?s=20 https://twitter.com/JoeLang51440671/status/1996992569746567173?s=20   other hand, I can see how we help real allies with aid when needed, as long as we get something of economic value in return.

Republican leadership planned Thursday to kick-off the procedural process to confirm 88 of President Donald Trump's nominees in a bloc vote, but were initially thwarted by Democratic Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet, who challenged the package for violating Senate rules. When Republicans refiled the package later on Thursday, the conference included an additional nine nominees, bringing the total to nearly 100.  The Senate has confirmed 314 civilian nominees as of Thursday evening, according to a tally by the Senate Republican Communications Center. The 97-member bloc would bring the Senate to more than 410 civilian confirmations in the first year of Trump's second term. “That far outstrips total confirmations by this point in President Biden's term, and in President Trump's first term as well,” Thune said Thursday. Thune also said that Senate Republicans have virtually cleared the nominations backlog. Before Republicans changed Senate precedent to allow for certain nominees to be confirmed in groups, more than 150 of the president's picks were awaiting floor consideration. The Senate approved a 48-member nominations package in September and an additional 108 of the president's picks in a single group vote in October.

At over 200 years old, the Monroe Doctrine is one of the longest lasting attempts to craft foreign policy for our country.  Declared in 1823 by President James Monroe, it laid the framework for the relationship between the United States and the Western Hemisphere.  But why was it so important?  What details did it address?  How is it relevant today and is it actually enforced?  To discuss this seminal foreign policy doctrine, we are welcoming two guests: Kirk Higgins is the Vice President of Content at the Bill of Rights Institute and Jim Pinkerton is a Senior Fellow at Center for American Prosperity at the America First Policy Institute, author and commentator.

As Secretary of State for President James Monroe, John Quincy Adams advocated for the expansion of the United States. He was responsible for establishing the northern boundary of the country from the Lake of the Woods to the Rocky Mountains, and eventually to the Pacific Ocean. More than any other man, Adams was responsible for putting the Monroe Doctrine into action.

I argue that there is more involved in these actions than an effort to stop drug trafficking and also assert that countering the import of narcotics into the United States is at best a side benefit of the action against those countries. The original Monroe Doctrine has been the policy of the United States for a little over 200 years, but it has been more or less abandoned in recent years. Is Donald Trump trying to reassert that doctrine with his military efforts in the Western Hemisphere, I think he is and I will make my case today. First, let's look at the Monroe Doctrine and what it was originally intended to be. It was first formulated or at least spoken of by President James Monroe in 1823 during his state of the union address to congress. He laid out before congress a foreign policy position that opposed European colonialism in the Western Hemisphere. Essentially, he just told the Europeans, and at the time Spain was the primary nation, that we will leave you alone in Europe and not interfere in your affairs and in return this hemisphere is off limits to you. Intervention in the affairs of nations in this hemisphere by foreign powers would potentially be treated as a hostile act against the United States. This doctrine was the grand foreign policy strategy during the 19th century. The Spanish American War at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th was the capstone or high-water mark of that policy when the United States removed Spain from its last two remaining colonies in this hemisphere. The 20th century brought with it two world wars and an America victorious and willing to intervene anywhere and at anytime it wanted to. Instead of non-intervention in European affairs the U.S. now has in the neighborhood of 750 military bases on foreign soil all over the world. The doctrine has been argued about and debated since the Spanish American War, but now everything is different and far more dangerous because of nuclear weapons and the reality that one mistake by one psychopathic leader could unleash a worldwide catastrophe. We also have a new war called the war on drugs that has been raging since President Nixon proclaimed it in the early 1970's. That war has been fought, lost and fought again since then by almost every president since Nixon. Every president at least pays lip service to stopping the scourge of drugs coming into the United States. It seems that each time one drug is somewhat controlled a new, even worse one takes its place. Cocaine, fentanyl, and other synthetic opioids for example. Unlike other presidents Trump seems to be approaching the problem as an actual war rather than using war as a turn of phrase. He has stated that the U.S. is in a “non-international armed conflict” with drug cartels he has designated as terrorist organizations. The Trump administration delivered that notice to congress after a strike on an alleged drug boat from Venezuela. There have been several strikes since then all against supposed drug boats. The scene is usually a high-speed boat carrying several people speeding across the Caribbean when a drone unleashes a hellfire missile and the boat and all its contents disappears. Designating a group as a terrorist organization is more than just saying we don't like those people. It deprives that group of many of the niceties of American law such as due ...

Hinweis der Redaktion: Nach der Fertigstellung dieser Folge wurde bekannt, dass Brasiliens Oberster Gerichtshof Hausarrest für den früheren Präsidenten Jair Bolsonaro angeordnet hat. Alle aktuellen Entwicklungen dazu finden Sie / findet ihr auf spiegel.de. Immer häufiger nutzt der US-Präsident Zölle nicht, um Handelskonflikte auszutragen. Ihm geht es vielmehr darum, dass Länder sich seinem Willen beugen. Jüngstes Opfer: Brasilien. Vor rund 200 Jahren verkündete der damalige US-Präsident James Monroe die sogenannte »Monroe-Doktrin«. Die USA würden sich nicht mehr in Europas Angelegenheiten einmischen, verböten sich aber Europas Einmischung in die Angelegenheiten des amerikanischen Kontinents. Was vordergründig als defensive Haltung wahrgenommen werden konnte, entpuppte sich sehr bald als das genaue Gegenteil. Die USA mischten sich massiv in die Angelegenheiten Lateinamerikas ein, nicht zuletzt militärisch. In dieser Folge von »Trumps Amerika« spricht Host Juan Moreno mit Jens Glüsing, Lateinamerika-Korrespondent des SPIEGEL. Glüsing ist davon überzeugt, dass Donald Trump eine Wiederbelebung der Monroe-Doktrin anstrebt. Als Hinweis darauf sieht er die Ankündigung der USA, Brasilien mit massiven Strafzöllen zu belegen. Die Forderung an die Regierung unter Präsident Lula da Silva: Die brasilianische Justiz soll trotz erdrückender Beweislage den Prozess gegen den Ex-Präsidenten Jair Bolsonaro aussetzen. »Trump hat einen neuralgischen Punkt berührt, die Einmischung in die inneren Angelegenheiten mit dem Bolsonaro-Prozess, und da wird es keine Kompromisse geben«, so Glüsing. Mehr zum Thema: Jair Bolsonaro muss bereits auf richterliche Anweisung eine Fußfessel tragen.

X: @JasonMiyaresVA @americasrt1776 @ileaderssummit @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk Join America's Roundtable (https://americasrt.com/) radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with Attorney General Jason Miyares, Commonwealth of Virginia. The conversation on America's Roundtable focuses on AG Jason Miyares's leadership in fighting opioids, reducing overdose deaths and reducing violence, thus making communitites in Virginia safer. The data released by Virginia Department of Health Office of the Chief Medical Examiner show fentanyl-related overdose deaths in Virginia declined 44 percent year-over-year and are down over 46 percent from its peak in 2021. Virginia led the nation in annual percentage declines in drug overdose deaths in 2024.   The recent celebration of America's Independence Day on July 4th 2025, reminds us of America Founding Fathers' ingenuity in creating America's Founding Documents: The Declaration of Independence, U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Virginia played a historic role in the founding of the American Republic - 249 years ago. America's Founding Fathers George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, George Mason, James Monroe, Patrick Henry and John Marshall were all Virginians. The timely discussion elevates the importance of combating anti-Semitism, and advancing principled policies based on the rule of law as well as affirming the significance of peace through strength. Bio | Jason S. Miyares (https://jasonmiyares.com/about/) Attorney General Jason Miyares' story doesn't start in Virginia Beach, Virginia, but in Havana, Cuba when his mother, Miriam Miyares, fled communist Cuba, penniless and homeless. She taught Jason a love for freedom, democracy, and that America is indeed the “last best hope on earth.” A product of Virginia public schools, Jason graduated with a Bachelor's in Business Administration from James Madison University and received his J.D. from the College of William and Mary School of Law. He previously served as a prosecutor in the Virginia Beach Commonwealth's Attorney Office, where he worked alongside law enforcement to keep violent criminals off our streets and our communities safe. In 2015, almost fifty years to the day that she fled Cuba, Miriam was able to vote for her son Jason Miyares to represent her in the oldest democracy in the Western Hemisphere, the Virginia House of Delegates. While representing Virginia Beach, Jason was recognized as “Legislator of the Year” in both 2018 and 2019 from the College Affordability and Public Trust for his work on transparency and affordability in higher education, as well as by the Hampton Roads Military Officers Association of America in 2018. He was also recognized in 2019 by the Safe House Project for his work combatting human trafficking, an issue that his administration is prioritizing. Jason Miyares is the first Cuban American elected to the General Assembly, the first Hispanic elected statewide in Virginia, and the first son of an immigrant ever elected to be Attorney General. He is passionate about preserving the American Miracle for the next generation of Virginians. americasrt.com (https://americasrt.com/) https://summitleadersusa.com/ | https://jerusalemleaderssummit.com/ America's Roundtable on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/americas-roundtable/id1518878472 X: @JasonMiyaresVA @americasrt1776 @ileaderssummit @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk America's Roundtable is co-hosted by Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy, co-founders of International Leaders Summit and the Jerusalem Leaders Summit.

The story of July 4, 1776, is both fact and myth. It is the day Americans celebrate the Declaration of Independence despite the fact that not every signature was obtained that day. Many forget about the significance of April 19, 1775, or the start of the Revolution, which until that point had been about resolving issues of rights and liberties within the British Empire. The idea behind the Revolution itself is oversimplified, and had a lot more to do with guns and money than taxes and tea. These stories are a mixture of truth and myth, and they are necessary to found civilization. As Joseph Campbell wrote: “Whenever men have looked for something solid on which to found their lives, they have chosen not the facts in which the world abounds, but the myths of an immemorial imagination.” The myths of the United States' founding are so monumental, including mysterious figures who supposedly designed the Great Seal and flag, visions by George Brinton McClellan and George Washington, and even a mystery person who swayed the signers of the Declaration of Independence, that they made it across the ocean to the far east. One Japanese book depicts the likes of George Washington fighting alongside the American goddess in one image and punching a tiger in another, while John Adams summons a giant eagle and kills an enormous snake. These depictions remind us of Apollo killing the python, archangel Michael stabbing the serpent satan, Siegfried killing a dragon, or the Japanese Susanoo killing Yamata no Orochi. The power of myth sometimes shapes historical events as great cataclysms, while other times the latter shape great events. Kingdoms rise and fall in relation to the stars, a comet, an astrological alignment, etc., while omens about natural disasters are explainable by science but confined to the realm of myth, which as Campbell notes, is the “substance of dreams.” Some things, however, are not myths, including how James Monroe, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams all died on the Fourth of July. And the odd synchronicities between Abraham Lincoln and John Kennedy. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

This Day in Legal History: Louisiana PurchaseOn this day in legal history, April 30, 1803, the United States signed the Louisiana Purchase Treaty with France, dramatically altering the legal and territorial landscape of the country. The treaty, signed in Paris by American envoys Robert Livingston and James Monroe, officially transferred approximately 828,000 square miles of land west of the Mississippi River from French to American control. President Thomas Jefferson, though uncertain whether the U.S. Constitution explicitly authorized such a land acquisition, ultimately supported the deal, citing the necessity of expanding the republic and securing trade access to the port of New Orleans.The purchase, which cost $15 million (roughly four cents an acre), effectively doubled the size of the United States and set a precedent for executive power in foreign affairs. It raised important legal questions regarding the role of the executive branch, the powers of Congress, and the interpretation of constitutional authority in territorial expansion. The acquisition also intensified debates over the expansion of slavery and the treatment of Indigenous peoples, both of which would become central legal and political issues throughout the 19th century.In addition to expanding national territory, the Louisiana Purchase laid the groundwork for the exploration and legal organization of new states. Soon after, Congress passed legislation governing how the territory would be divided and admitted into the Union. This required new legal frameworks for property rights, governance, and federal versus state authority in previously foreign lands.The U.S. Supreme Court is preparing to hear arguments on whether Oklahoma can fund a religious charter school—the first case of its kind. At issue is the state's attempt to establish St. Isidore of Seville Catholic Virtual School, a K-12 online institution run by two Catholic dioceses, using public funds. A state court previously blocked the school, ruling it would act as a “governmental entity” and violate the First Amendment's Establishment Clause, which bars government endorsement of religion.The school's supporters, including Oklahoma's governor and President Trump, argue that denying the school solely because it is religious constitutes a violation of the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment. Meanwhile, opponents, including the state's attorney general, warn that the move would amount to taxpayer-funded religious indoctrination and could erode public education standards, particularly around non-discrimination.Charter schools in Oklahoma are considered public entities, which complicates claims that St. Isidore would operate as a private, independent institution. Organizers maintain that contracting with the state doesn't make the school an arm of the government. The Supreme Court's decision, expected by June, could redefine the boundaries between church and state in education.The legal element worth highlighting here is the Establishment Clause vs. Free Exercise Clause tension—the case tests how far states can go in accommodating religious institutions without endorsing them. This clash sits at the core of modern debates about public funding and religious liberty. Under the current Supreme Court composition, it is likely we will see an expansion of the former at the cost of the limits in the latter. US Supreme Court mulls legality of milestone religious charter school | ReutersGoogle CEO Sundar Pichai is set to testify in a high-stakes antitrust trial where the U.S. Department of Justice is pushing to break up parts of Google's business to restore competition in online search. The DOJ is urging the court to force Google to divest its Chrome browser and stop paying major tech partners like Apple and Samsung to be the default search engine on their devices. Prosecutors argue these deals entrench Google's monopoly and hinder innovation, especially as search overlaps more with emerging generative AI tools like ChatGPT.U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta has already found that Google maintains a dominant position in the search market with no real rivals. The government is also asking the court to make Google share search data with competitors to level the playing field. Google, in response, claims that such measures would harm user privacy and undercut smaller partners like Mozilla that depend on Google funding.Pichai is expected to argue that the proposed remedies would have unintended consequences across the tech ecosystem. Google has already made some adjustments, allowing phone makers to pre-install alternative search and AI apps, but it still plans to appeal any adverse ruling. The case could have sweeping implications for the future of search, digital competition, and AI integration online.Google CEO Sundar Pichai to take the stand at search antitrust trial | ReutersPresident Trump issued an executive order directing the Justice Department to coordinate free legal defense for police officers accused of misconduct. The order calls on Attorney General Pam Bondi to organize pro bono support from private law firms, aiming to protect officers who, in the administration's view, face "unjust liability" for actions taken in the line of duty. Though the order doesn't name specific firms, it expands Trump's broader effort to harness the legal industry to support his administration's priorities.This follows recent agreements between the Trump administration and nine major law firms—including Paul Weiss, Skadden, and Kirkland & Ellis—to commit $940 million worth of pro bono work to causes the administration endorses, such as veterans' services and combating antisemitism. Critics, including the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers and 20 Democratic state attorneys general, have raised concerns about political pressure and lack of transparency in how these firms were selected and what they've agreed to.The order also calls for improved pay and training for police while denouncing efforts to “demonize law enforcement.” Critics warn this could undermine accountability and place pressure on firms to align their legal services with political goals. Meanwhile, some firms have publicly stated they will maintain control over their pro bono work, even as Trump claims the right to “use” them for administration-selected causes.Trump executive order seeks law firms to defend police officers for free | ReutersIn a piece I wrote for Forbes this week, I examined President Trump's renewed push to replace income taxes with tariffs, particularly targeting relief for Americans making under $200,000. The idea sounds populist, but it's economically misleading. Tariffs, after all, are simply hidden taxes that show up in the form of higher prices on imported goods. For lower- and middle-income Americans—those Trump claims to want to help—this shift would likely increase, not reduce, their financial burden.The proposal doesn't change the amount of money the government needs—just where it's extracted. Instead of the IRS, the “bill collector” becomes stores, suppliers, and foreign producers, with consumers footing the bill at checkout. Trump's approach, I argue, banks on the psychological difference between writing a tax check and absorbing incremental price hikes, though the economic effect is the same.Historically, tariff-based revenue systems led to inequality and volatility—conditions that helped inspire the adoption of the income tax through the Sixteenth Amendment. And practically speaking, tariffs simply cannot generate the hundreds of billions needed to sustain modern federal programs. Relying on them also cedes revenue control to foreign exporters, which undermines national fiscal stability.Ultimately, this policy doesn't tackle the real issue—Americans' frustration with a high cost of living. Instead, it disguises taxation while dodging the deeper structural question of who should be paying more. I emphasized that real reform must address not just how taxes are collected, but also the fairness of who bears the burden.Trump Continues To Push Idea Of Replacing Income Tax With TariffsSpecial ThanksStephanie Himel-Nelson, Jennifer Porter Law, PLLC This is a public episode.

Retired attorney, former President of the Lafayette chapter of the Sons of the Revolution, and all around General Lafayette expert Dale Henley sits down with David to talk about the Marquis de Lafayette and his visit to Lexington in 1825. They talk about Lafayette's background, from joining the Musketeers at the age of thirteen to defying the French King and sailing to the American colonies to advance the cause of liberty at just nineteen years old. Dale shares book recommendations for learning more about Lafayette's role in the Revolutionary War, his abolitionist views, and his 1825 visit on the invitation of President Monroe. He also tells us about the events in Lexington in May 2025 to celebrate the 200th anniversary of Lafayette's visit.The opening music for this episode is the “Brandywine Quickstep” named for Brandywine, Pennsylvania where Lafayette took part in his first battle of the revolution and was subsequently wounded. The recording is by the United States Army Old Guard Fife and Drum Corps and is in the public domain.

Year(s) Discussed: 1815-1817 As Madison prepared to hand off the presidency to James Monroe, numerous matters - both foreign and domestic - came to his desk. From revolutions in South America to internal improvement bills, the President continued to chart a course for his administration, even issuing a veto on his last full day in office, while other political leaders positioned themselves for a post-Madison political environment.

The 1820 U.S. Census rolled out during what historians often call the "Era of Good Feelings"—a peaceful name for a time that was anything but simple. The War of 1812 had ended just a few years earlier. James Monroe was president, and the country was pushing its borders westward at full speed. Tensions over slavery, expansion, and power were beginning to heat up, even though the surface looked calm. The 1820 census is a small turning point for those tracing family histories. It's still far from perfect—only the head of household is named—but it gives us more than the earlier counts. And if you know how to read between the lines and pair it with other records, it can open up many doors...

WMAL GUEST: 8:05 AM - INTERVIEW - GEARY HIGGINS - Delegate, Virginia House of Delegates – Recapped this legislative session, his legislative priorities and what’s next SOCIAL MEDIA: https://x.com/GearyHiggins ABOUT THIS SESSION OF THE VA GENERAL ASSEMBLY On the evening of Feb. 22, the Virginia General Assembly adjourned after a short, 45-day session. The session got off to a rocky start after a winter storm and power outage disrupted the water supply system in Richmond and the surrounding area, delaying the start to the session. In the beginning of the session there were nearly 2,000 bills introduced. Of those, roughly 900 are headed to the desk of Gov. Glenn Youngkin. He now has until March 24 to sign, amend or veto each of these bills. After he has done that, the general assembly will return to Richmond on April 2 to vote on the governor’s actions. The bills that the governor and both chambers agree to then become law on July 1. GEARY’S BILLS: More than 150 bills sponsored by Republicans were never given a hearing at all, including 5 of Geary’s bills – Banning Sanctuary Cities, Parent’s Bill Rights, School Safety, etc. Dems did however hear and pass a bunch of absurd bills that the Governor already vetoed last year. JAMES MONROE’S HOME: Geary is working very hard on getting James Monroe’s home, “Oak Hill”, which is in his district in Loudoun, to be a State Park. This would be huge for the Commonwealth and Nova specifically. Might be a good question to ask “Did the Democrats fail on getting this in the budget?” CBS: A plan to make James Monroe's Virginia estate a state park was rejected. Now, it's in limbo.

La Maison Blanche, résidence officielle et bureau du président des États-Unis, tire son nom de son apparence caractéristique, mais son appellation n'a pas toujours été évidente. L'histoire de son nom est liée à son architecture, un incendie majeur et des usages populaires avant d'être officiellement adoptée en 1901.1. Une inspiration architecturale et une première appellation (1792-1800)La construction de la Maison Blanche débute en 1792, sous la présidence de George Washington. L'architecte irlandais James Hoban s'inspire du château de Rastignac, une demeure néoclassique française située en Dordogne, ainsi que du Leinster House de Dublin. Le bâtiment est conçu en grès aquia, une pierre grisâtre extraite en Virginie.Initialement, l'édifice est appelé "Executive Mansion", un terme générique qui désigne les résidences des gouverneurs dans plusieurs États américains.2. L'incendie de 1814 et la reconstruction (1814-1817)Pendant la guerre de 1812, le 24 août 1814, les troupes britanniques envahissent Washington D.C. et incendient plusieurs bâtiments officiels, dont l'Executive Mansion. Après ce saccage, la structure est sévèrement endommagée, et la reconstruction s'étale jusqu'en 1817, sous la présidence de James Monroe.Pour masquer les traces de l'incendie et protéger le grès des intempéries, le bâtiment est recouvert d'une épaisse couche de peinture blanche à base de chaux. Cette caractéristique donne naissance au surnom "White House" ("Maison Blanche"), qui commence à être utilisé par le public.3. L'usage populaire et l'officialisation du nom (1817-1901)Tout au long du XIXe siècle, le terme "White House" devient courant dans le langage populaire et dans la presse, même si le gouvernement continue d'utiliser "Executive Mansion" dans les documents officiels.Finalement, en 1901, le président Theodore Roosevelt officialise le nom en faisant inscrire "The White House" sur la papeterie présidentielle et les documents administratifs. Cette décision vise à unifier les références au bâtiment et à ancrer son identité unique.ConclusionLa Maison Blanche doit son nom à un concours de circonstances historiques et esthétiques : son architecture inspirée du style néoclassique, l'incendie de 1814 et la nécessité de la repeindre en blanc. Ce nom, d'abord un simple surnom, s'est imposé dans l'usage courant avant d'être institutionnalisé par Roosevelt en 1901, devenant ainsi un symbole universel du pouvoir américain. Hébergé par Acast.

On this week's program, we share with you “China, Russia, Europe, and the U.S.: New World Disorder?”, a virtual conversation with Professors Marc Blecher (Political Science) and Ron Suny (History) that was hosted on Thursday, March 13, 2025 by the Oberlin Club of Washington, D.C. The fundamental remaking of the post-World War II settlement—American supremacy in the capitalist world, Soviet domination of the state socialist one, and China's radical rise after a century of crisis—began to unravel five decades ago, a process that is now completing. But, in Slavoj Žižek's poetic gloss of Antonio Gramsci, “The old world is not yet dead, the new world is not yet born. It is a time of monsters.” Professors Blecher and Suny sketch some of the major tectonic forces at play, both within each pole and also among them on the international chessboard, and explore the implications. Marc Blecher is the James Monroe Professor of Politics and East Asian Studies at Oberlin College. His specialty is Chinese politics, and he also teaches Asian politics and political economy, Marxian theory, and comparative politics. His most recent books are Class and the Communist Party of China, 1921-1978, Class and the Communist Party of China, 1978-2021, Politics as a Science: A Prolegomenon, and The Making of China's Working Class: A World to Lose. Marc is now the most senior member of the Oberlin faculty, having taught since 1976. He recalls that Ron Suny became his first friend when he arrived on campus and remains his best friend. Marc expresses pride in holding the James Monroe professorship, noting that Monroe was an Oberlin alum, a member of the Oberlin faculty, a member of Congress, and an important abolitionist. When on campus you can visit the historic Monroe home which is located next to the Conservatory. Ronald Grigor Suny is the William H. Sewell Jr. Distinguished University Professor Emeritus of History and Professor Emeritus of Political Science at the University of Michigan and Emeritus Professor of Political Science and History at the University of Chicago. His intellectual interests have centered on the non-Russian nationalities of the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union, particularly those of the South Caucasus (Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia). Ron taught at Oberlin College from 1968-1981 and is the author of Stalin: Passage to Revolution, “They Can Live in the Desert But Nowhere Else”: A History of the Armenian Genocide, and The Revenge of the Past: Nationalism, Revolution, and the Collapse of the Soviet Union.

Learn how by mid-December, 1776, the American Revolution was in desperate straits.  Explore that after a series of defeats, the American Army had retreated through New Jersey and was stationed in Pennsylvania — with the British Army across the Delaware River. The Continental Army was on the verge of utter collapse. Overconfident, the British went into Winter Quarters.  Congress gave George Washington enormous authority, and Washington used the lull in fighting and his new power to reorganize and strengthen his troops.  Washington and his officers designed a daring attack on Hessian forces in Trenton, New Jersey. Before the battle, Washington inspired the troops through the reading of Thomas Paine's American Crisis. Follow Washington's troops through the winter storm, the crossing of the nearly frozen Delaware River, an arduous march, and the pitched battle. The fate of the new nation depends on it. Through divine intervention, Washington was able to mount a surprise attack on the hated Hessian troops in Trenton, winning an improbable victory, which became a critical turning point in the war.

The New River Farms Sawmill opened July 19, 2024, offering customers many species of logs as boards and beams up to 25 feet in length to the customer's specifications. The company can also mill individual logs onsite. More than 100 people attended the Fayette County sawmill's Open House at Clifftop (near Babcock State Park) in mid-September.

The asking price is $1.795 million. The former Salt Sulphur Springs resort, known as “Old Salt” by its 19th century clientele, is tucked into a shady, narrow Monroe County valley through which spring-fed Indian Creek meanders, a few miles south of Union. Since the early 1800s, the house has provided lodging for guests drawn to Salt Sulphur's healing springs. A chapel, five cottages, a bathhouse, a spring house and a store building were also built of native stone and completed at around the same time. During “Old Salt's” pre-Civil War heyday, nearly 2,000 guests stayed at the Monroe County resort each summer--many of whom were southerners seeking to escape the season's heat.

Donald Trump's election has created an opportunity for the desperately needed reboot in foreign policies as well as domestic ones in order to take appropriate corrective action. Of course, it is essential to have an accurate understanding of the magnitude of the problems Mr. Trump is now confronting, as well as the options for fixing those problems. Take for example, the state of the Western Hemisphere, despite its obvious importance to the security as well as the economy of our country. Latin America has generally been subjected to, at best, benign neglect by successive US administrations, both Republican and Democrat. Our enemies have filled the vacuum. Notably, the Chinese Communist Party has made huge headways in colonizing the region, creating ports, electric grids, and other critical infrastructure. Some of these assets owned as well as operated by the Chinese. The Russians are providing, among other things, advanced arms and Iran's regime and what remains of its foreign legion, Hezbollah, operate with impunity in key countries across Latin America. Unfortunately, much of the rest of the world is aflame, thanks to what I call “World War Xi” – a product of the strategic arson at the hands of the Chinese dictator Xi Jinping and the ineptitude, or worse, the complicity of the outgoing Biden-Harris administration. So, the temptation to give short shrift to nations and challenges closer to home will likely arise again. But we cannot safely ignore, let alone acquiesce to, the subversion and the capture of our neighborhood by hostile foreign powers in a manner President James Monroe proscribed 200 years ago.

How have our Presidents' money stories affected their lives and trajectories before, during, and after their terms? Have the Presidents' finances affected policy? What stories do they teach the rest of us? As we head into election season, MEGAN GORMAN has released a terrific book on US Presidents and their personal finances. She is a tax attorney and wealth manager – takes readers on a rollicking ride, full of history and personal finance lessons, to understand the intimate money stories of our most famous presidents in her highly anticipated new book, ALL THE PRESIDENTS' MONEY: How the Men who Governed America Governed Their Money Megan Gorman's "All The Presidents' Money" Megan has spent her career advising some of the wealthy. She parlayed her interest in history and politics with her career expertise to analyze our Presidents relationship with money. The stories of our Presidents' personal finances not only give insight into their leadership style, but they teach lessons for the rest of us as well. What inspired you to write about the US presidents' relationship with money? Since I was six, I've always been obsessed with learning about the presidents. There's an archetype that I was drawn to: a man from an ordinary background that through hard work and luck makes his way to the top. We have many presidential examples in our history: Lincoln, Eisenhower, Grant, Johnson, Truman, Ford, Reagan, and on. Could this same story happen now?  Maybe, but it's not as easy as it was before. https://www.amazon.com/All-Presidents-Money-Governed-America-ebook/dp/B0D3T7TGMZ/ Megan Gorman's Presidents' Relationship with Money How did you approach researching the book, since financial details are often private? I usually started by reading a book on the president and looking for little items – education, jobs, homes – and then ferreting out primary source documents. But the most useful items are the letters.  Letters were where a lot of financial discussions occurred, from Jefferson and his financial challenges to Harry Truman lamenting to his future wife about whether he will ever find financial success. The presidential libraries and museums' archives were also unbelievable.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvMoUuruCzU Did you notice any common themes or patterns in the presidents' financial behaviors and decision-making? A lot of bad financial decision making occurs when emotion controls the situation. For example, President George Washington asked James Monroe to go to France. Monroe agreed even though he had a substantial plantation at home that needed significant management. Monroe got to France and realized that to succeed, he needs gravitas. In 1790s France, that means having the right home to entertain in. So he went out and bought a house for the US with his own money – doesn't ask permission and doesn't think about the obligations back home. His salary doesn't cover half of what he is spending. When Monroe's appointment is over, he sells the house at a loss. Money is emotion – and managing it is very hard for all of us. You write in All The Presidents' Money that "wealth happens at the intersection of opportunity and discipline." What do you mean? We talk a lot about financial literacy and having strong financial skills. But the truth is you could be the greatest budgeter in the world, but if you have no money coming in, it's a moot point.  Budgeting, risk tolerance, connecting with your future self – all of those things are the framework of finance – but you need your shot at wealth building, to put it in Hamilton parlance. You need to have the ability to make a living.  If you have that, and you use financial literacy, you can build financial resilience. Sounds easy, but in the current stage we are in the US, it's gotten a lot harder. Several presidents had a strong aversion to debt. Do you think this is a valuable mindset for financial success?

In December 1823, US president James Monroe delivered his State of the Union address in which he coined what would become known as the Monroe Doctrine. It was a framework that would later be used to legitimize US intervention up and down the hemisphere. But in those early days, Monroe's statements were applauded by Latin American leaders as supporting their independence struggles. They were even embraced at Simon Bolivar's Panama Congress of 1826.In this episode, host Michael Fox travels to see what's left of the former site of the Panama Congress, and then dives in to the past and present with Yale historian Greg Grandin.They look at Simon Bolivar's Panama Congress, but also Monroe and the legacy of US imperialism in the region until today, including US-backed death squads, the Iran Contra Scandal, Manifest Destiny, and so much more.Under the Shadow is an investigative narrative podcast series that walks back in time, telling the story of the past by visiting momentous places in the present. In each episode, host Michael Fox takes us to a location where something historic happened—a landmark of revolutionary struggle or foreign intervention. Today, it might look like a random street corner, a church, a mall, a monument, or a museum. But every place he takes us was once the site of history-making events that shook countries, impacted lives, and left deep marks on the world.Hosted by Latin America-based journalist Michael Fox.

Thank You  to Brady Gibney for giving me the great idea to replay some of my favorite shows while I am off this week Today is Memorial Day So I'm re posting my Conversation with my favorite historian Kenneth C. Davis is the author of Don't Know Much About® History, which spent 35 consecutive weeks on The New York Times bestseller list, and gave rise to the Don't Know Much About® series of books and audios, which has a combined in-print total of some 4.7-million copies. In September 2020, Don't Know Much About® History: Anniversary Edition was released by HarperCollins. A  revised, updated, and expanded edition of the book that started the series thirty years ago, it presents a complete survey of American history, from before the arrival of Columbus in 1492 right through the events of the past decade –from 9/11 through the election of Barack Obama and the first years of his administration. This 30th anniversary edition included a new preface, “From the Era of Broken Trust to the Era of Broken Democracy.” Davis is also the author of the New York Times bestseller America's Hidden History: Untold Tales of the First Pilgrims, Fighting Women, and Forgotten Founders Who Shaped a Nation. In September 2016, his book IN THE SHADOW OF LIBERTY: The Hidden History of Slavery, Four Presidents, and Five Black Lives was published to critical acclaim. In May 2018, MORE DEADLY THAN WAR: The Hidden History of the Spanish Flu and The First World War was published. In October 2020, STRONGMAN: The Rise of Five Dictators and the Fall of Democracy was released. In November 2022, Scribner published Great Short Books: A Year of Reading–Briefly. For more than 30 years, Kenneth C. Davis has proven that Americans don't hate history, just the dull version they slept through in class. But many of them want to know now because their kids are asking them questions they can't answer. Davis's approach is to refresh us on the subjects we should have learned in school. He does it by busting myths, setting the record straight, and always remembering that fun is not a four-letter word. Other points of note: •Davis has spoken about teaching history to teachers' groups, such as the National Council for the Social Studies, and state and regional Social Studies conferences in Florida, New York, Maine, Connecticut, Vermont, and Massachusetts. Davis uses technology to reach out to schools and teachers. He has visited hundreds of schools around the country and the world via Skype, Zoom and other online platforms Davis speaks to both adult and student audiences. He regularly visits schools, and has spoken at such venues as the American Museum of Natural History, the New-York Historical Society, the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia, James Madison's Montpelier, James Monroe's Ash-Lawn Highland, and the Smithsonian Institution. He is available for school visits and speaking engagements Contact Kenneth C.

Article IV, Section 3 of the United States Constitution establishes guidelines by which the United States Congress can admit new states to the American Union. It clearly states that “no new State shall be formed or erected within the Jurisdiction of any other State…without the Consent of the Legislatures of the States concerned as well as of the Congress.” Five states have been formed from pre-existing states: Vermont, Kentucky, Tennessee, West Virginia, and Maine. How did the process of forming a state from a pre-existing state work? Why would territories within a state want to declare their independence from their home state? Joshua Smith, the interim director of the American Merchant Marine Museum in Kings Point, New York, and author of the book Making Maine: Statehood and the War of 1812, leads us on an exploration of Maine's journey to statehood.

(This one is different from what you may have learned in history class). This, and other stories of that American tradition of not running for President. Learn more about your ad choices.
