In this segment from The Tara Show, host Tara Servatius and co-host Lee discuss the growing influence of far-left and socialist ideology within the Democratic Party, highlighting streamer Hasan Piker's speech at the College Democrats convention where he wore a Mao-style suit and condemned party moderates. Servatius and Lee draw a contrast between the historical anti-communist stances of past Democratic leaders, such as John F. Kennedy, and current progressive efforts, including NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani's push to enforce International Criminal Court (ICC) warrants against foreign leaders like Benjamin Netanyahu. Examining a recent address by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Servatius argues that progressive rhetoric regarding international courts threatens American national sovereignty and sets a dangerous precedent for future extraditions of U.S. military personnel and political figures.
On the July 20, 2026 edition of The Tara Show, host Tara Servatius breaks down key national security debates and political commentary. She examines Secretary of State Marco Rubio's forceful rejection of International Criminal Court (ICC) jurisdiction, contrasting his defense of U.S. sovereignty with progressive efforts to enforce international warrants against foreign leaders and domestic officials. Servatius also offers a sharp critique of foreign policy decisions under the Trump administration, specifically pointing to JD Vance's Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Iran, which she argues enabled the regime to rearm and directly led to recent U.S. service member casualties in the Middle East. After sharing a reflective quote from Senator Lindsey Graham on the tendency of political figures to overestimate their competition, the broadcast addresses domestic enforcement measures, highlighting Stephen Miller's announcement of a Trump administration plan to strip undocumented immigrants of access to the American banking system as a catalyst for self-deportation.
On the July 20, 2026 broadcast of The Tara Show, host Tara Servatius and co-host Lee delve into a wide-ranging set of local political dynamics and international developments. The discussion focuses heavily on South Carolina's shifting political scene following the death of Senator Lindsey Graham, critiquing the state's GOP "machine" and President Donald Trump's local endorsements—including his backing of Graham's sister, Darlene Graham Nordone. The hosts also examine national security concerns regarding Chinese influence over election systems and the Democratic Party, alongside a foreign policy debate over the International Criminal Court (ICC). Pointing to clashes between Secretary of State Marco Rubio and NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani over potential warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Servatius contends that progressive efforts to leverage international tribunals aim to establish precedents for targeting U.S. political opponents.

In 1914 the British-built and Japanese-owned steamship Komagata Maru left Hong Kong for Vancouver carrying 376 Punjabi migrants. Chartered by railway contractor and purported rubber planter Gurdit Singh, the ship and its passengers were denied entry into Canada and two months later were deported to Calcutta. In Across Oceans of Law: The Komagata Maru and Jurisdiction in the Time of Empire (Duke University Press, 2018) Renisa Mawani retells this well-known story of the Komagata Maru. Drawing on "oceans as method"—a mode of thinking and writing that repositions land and sea—Mawani examines the historical and conceptual stakes of situating histories of Indian migration within maritime worlds. Through close readings of the ship, the manifest, the trial, and the anticolonial writings of Singh and others, Mawani argues that the Komagata Maru's landing raised urgent questions regarding the jurisdictional tensions between the common law and admiralty law, and, ultimately, the legal status of the sea. By following the movements of a single ship and bringing oceans into sharper view, Mawani traces British imperial power through racial, temporal, and legal contests and offers a novel method of writing colonial legal history. The conversation also covers how the book, published in 2018, has shaped the author's more recent work as well as how historical methods and approaches have evolved in the years since publication. Helen Dewar is an historian of the Atlantic World and French colonization in North America in the 17th and 18th centuries. She is a professor of history at the Université de Montréal (Québec, Canada) and the author of Disputing New France: Companies, Sovereignty and Law in the French Atlantic, 1598-1663 (McGill-Queen's University Press, 2022).

Sable Offshore Oil Corp. reportedly sent a letter to the Trump administration asking to exercise eminent domain over public and private land in Santa Barbara county. Politico published the letter last week, it was dated June second. Sable's pipelines are connected to the land they're looking to acquire. The company has been actively operating after it resumed oil production in March and is looking to bypass prohibitive local and state law. Initially, the Trump administration approved the restart through an emergency order bypassing permission from California. KCSB's Mavis Holley spoke to UC Santa Barbara professor Paasha Mahdavi about what asserting eminent domain over private and public land means for both the pipeline project and California state rights.

The 14th Amendment of the US Constitution, Section 1 reads as follows: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside.” So all persons born in the US are citizens. We call this Birthright Citizenship. In Trump v Barbara, the US Supreme Court agreed. But only 5 of the 9 justices agreed. So what was the decision of the Court in this case, and what is the status of citizenship in the US? And how does it relate to the two asylum cases the Supreme Court decided, on temporary protective status or TPS and on where a person can claim asylum. On today's show, we discuss the US and immigration and asylum.

In this essential Part 1 of our series on Estate Reclamation, we welcome back Russell Paul Arthur, a certified practitioner of sovereign law and the creator of the Grace Sovereignty Academy. Russell explains the lawful procedure of reclaiming your estate—the net worth of everything you own, earn, and owe—back from the control of the Crown Commonwealth. We explore the deception of property registration, the reality of the "public estate," and how the "citizen" functions as a legal franchise that keeps your assets in bondage. This episode provides the foundational knowledge needed to transition your assets from public control to private sovereign authority. ⏱️ Complete Chapter Points & Timestamps 0:03 Welcome to the Awakening Podcast and the Sovereign Man Podcast 0:36 Russell Paul Arthur's Bio and Credentials 1:05 Welcome Back, Russell 1:17 Today's Presentation: Estate Reclamation Explained 2:04 Disclaimer and Advisory Statement 4:15 What Exactly is an Estate?

Send us fan responses! The fastest way to stay trapped is to let someone else define you on paper. From Vegas, Don Kilam lays out his controversial framework for “status correction” and why he believes prosperity and generational wealth get blocked by a hidden administrative corporate structure that most people never question, but sign into every day through IDs, registrations, and default tax classifications. We walk through his core distinction between a “citizen” and a “national,” why he ties nationality to land and allegiance, and how he uses the Amish as a real-world example of operating within society without fully participating in the same documentation and tax status pipeline. He also challenges modern identity categories, arguing that labels like black and white function as legal descriptions rather than nationalities, and he connects language, definitions, and form design to the way institutions assign rights, liabilities, and control. The conversation turns practical when he talks paperwork and structure: W-8BEN vs W-8BENE, individual vs entity treatment, and why mixing trusts with personal filings can undo asset protection. He also names foreign credential paths like Palau ID and Estonia e-Residency as tools he believes can support a foreign national posture. These are big claims with real legal and financial consequences, so treat them as prompts to research carefully and to consult qualified professionals before making changes.

When a child or a nation chooses a path you are completely against, how do you respond without losing your strength? Discover "The Samuel Principle" and find out why a faith crisis or a transition in leadership is an invitation to evaluate our hearts—not just our outward appearances. Summary: In this episode, we unpack 1 Samuel 8–16, charting the shift from the rule of judges to the era of the kings. We navigate the messy landscape of parental grief, corporate peer pressure, and the personal conversion required to shift from a "hidden" potential to a "magnified" priesthood. The Samuel Principle: We analyze how to implement the three-part divine formula when a loved one exercises their agency poorly: hearken to their voice, protest solemnly, and show them the long-term consequences. Hiding Among the Stuff: We address Saul's overwhelming sense of inadequacy and why we are tempted to bury our potential under worldly distractions when God calls us to step forward. Turned into Another Man: We look at the spiritual alchemy that happens when the Spirit of the Lord comes upon a person, making them unrecognizable to those who only knew their "old" self. The Jurisdiction of Authority: We analyze Saul's fatal overreach at Gilgal, exploring the difference between doing a right thing in a wrong way and why waiting on the Lord's timing is an act of covenant trust. The Heart vs. The Stature: We conclude in Bethlehem, exploring why the Lord refused Eliab's height and chose the ruddy shepherd boy David, reminding us that man looks on the outward appearance, but God looks on the heart. Call-to-Action: Are you currently hiding "among the stuff" because you feel inadequate for what the Lord is asking you to do? How can David's hidden, shepherd-heart inspire you to step into the light this week? Share your thoughts in the comments!

When a company changes its name, sharpens its focus and adds technical leadership with deep Nevada experience, the change is worth noting. Maverick Gold and Silver did not simply rebrand in April 2026. It began building a more focused precious metals story around Nevada, one of North America's most established gold producing jurisdictions.Ian Foreman, VP Exploration, said Nevada was a major reason he joined Maverick. Peter Baxter, Senior Technical Advisor, brings decades of geological and capital markets experience, including extensive field experience in Nevada and 15 years in mining investment banking at Scotiabank. Together, they are helping advance Jericho and Gator, two Nevada gold-silver projects with strong surface indicators, historic work and clear next steps toward drill targeting.WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOWNevada Focus: Jericho expanded 370% to 1,683 acres on April 30, 2026, after Maverick staked 62 new claims to cover more of the mineralized system.Historic Validation: Jericho has seen small-scale mining and historic exploration, but according to Peter Baxter, it has no recent drilling. Management believes the project was overlooked due to portfolio history, not a negative geological conclusion.Systematic Work Underway: Maverick has 170 samples in the lab from Jericho from systematic sampling across the property. Historic samples cited in the interview included approximately highs of 3.4 g/t gold and 1,200 g/t silver.Gator sits near Battle Mountain in Nevada, with year-round access, a hydrothermal system extending over 7 kilometers and multiple target areas. The company has an existing drill permit in place and is working on permit modifications for GSX and Gator South.Third Project Advancing: Silver Vista in British Columbia remains a key part of the portfolio. Maverick has completed a flow-through financing, has a funded drill program planned and is only awaiting the required drill permit before the drill turns.STRATEGIC IMPLICATIONSFor junior explorers, jurisdiction matters as much as geology. Grade can attract attention, but location can determine how efficiently a project moves from concept to exploration, and eventually through more advanced stages if results justify it. Nevada offers a rare combination of gold endowment, infrastructure, mining history, technical expertise and an established regulatory framework.That is why Maverick's pivot to Nevada is important. The company is not trying to tell a broad, scattered story. It is concentrating on two projects in a jurisdiction where large gold systems are well understood and where experienced geologists can use modern tools to revisit ground that may not have been fully tested.Peter Baxter pointed to Nevada's major gold belts as mature but not exhausted. He noted that much of the production in north central Nevada has occurred within recent decades, while deeper exploration continues to change how known districts are understood. In his view, modern geophysics, detailed mapping and deeper drill testing can still create meaningful new exploration opportunities in areas with the right surface evidence.The timing is also important. Stronger precious metals markets have increased investor attention on gold and silver exploration, especially in established jurisdictions. Maverick is positioning itself around a simple question: can modern fieldwork and disciplined drilling unlock value from Nevada projects that have surface evidence, historic validation and limited modern testing?VP Exploration Ian Foreman, discussing the company's current fieldwork:“We've got about 170 samples in the lab right now from Jericho… As for Gator, the decision to drill has been made… There is a drill permit in place for the property… we are going to modify that drill permit so that we can put a couple of drill holes down into the GSX target and into Gator South. So, what work we're doing now is, in fact, not for a drill decision, but where the drill holes are going to go.”
Richard Epstein disputes the "plain meaning" application to the 14th Amendment, arguing that "subject to the jurisdiction" requires natural allegiance rather than mere physical presence. Critiquing the Wong Kim Ark ruling, he suggests that children of legal permanent aliens should inherit their parents' status rather than automatic citizenship.1880
Professor Richard Epstein analyzes the legal nuances of the 14th Amendment and the myth of birthright citizenship. He explains the "plain meaning" rule of the Constitution, distinguishing between being "subject to the jurisdiction"—which implies loyalty to a sovereign—and merely being "within the jurisdiction" as a temporary resident. His insights challenge standard interpretations of citizenship law.1937 SCOTUS

One of the greatest threat to early America was piracy, but it wasn’t found in the Caribbean or Gulf Coast. It was pirates on the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers. Samuel Mason fought bravely at the 1777 Siege of Fort Henry, became a Justice of the Peace in the Northwest Territory, then turned Cave-in-Rock into a strategic base for organized river piracy where he lured flatboat crews with promises of "liquor and entertainment" before robbing and murdering them. Mason thrived because the new republic had weak, fragmented control over its western territories. Jurisdiction overlapped between local authorities, territorial governments, Spanish Louisiana, and American claims. He exploited every gap. His story ended when two of his own men killed him, severed his head, and tried to collect bounty money in Natchez, only to be recognized as outlaws themselves and hanged. Today's guest is Carter Smith, author of From Patriot to Pirate: The Outlaw Life of Sam Mason. We discuss why Mason kicked the infamous Harpe brothers out of his gang because their extreme brutality threatened to draw too much attention to his organized operation. Smith explains how the collapse of frontier order after the Revolution pushed respected veterans into outlawry. Mason wasn't a wandering thug. He was organized, strategic, and dangerous. His life reveals what criminal opportunity looked like when the map said one thing but actual control on the ground said something else.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Burmese military maintains its grip over Burma through arson, arbitrary detentions, airstrikes, killings, and other forms of intimidation and violence to instill fear in its people, including ethnoreligious minorities such as Rohingya and Chin. The lack of justice for the junta's atrocities has deepened its resolve, yet Burmese people are seeking accountability through the legal principle of universal jurisdiction. On this episode of the USCIRF Spotlight podcast, Commissioner Stephen Schneck speaks with Tun Khin, President of the Burmese Rohingya Organization UK, and Salai Za Uk Ling, the Executive Director of the Chin Human Rights Organization. Their discussion centers on the principle of universal jurisdiction and how civil society organizations are seeking to prosecute responsible individuals through courts overseas for their part in ordering and carrying out genocide and crimes against humanity.

Joseph Duggar now faces criminal charges in two states — felony molestation charges in Florida and misdemeanor endangerment and false imprisonment charges in Arkansas — creating a dual-jurisdiction prosecution with distinct legal timelines and evidentiary standards that both point back to the same household.This week's look back at the most consequential legal developments in true crime examines the procedural architecture of the Duggar case. In Florida, Duggar, 31, is charged with lewd and lascivious molestation on a child under 12 and lewd and lascivious contact, stemming from alleged incidents during a 2020 family vacation to Panama City Beach. The arrest affidavit from the Bay County Sheriff's Office documents that a now-14-year-old victim disclosed the alleged abuse during a forensic interview, that her father confronted Duggar and he allegedly admitted to the conduct, and that Tontitown detectives subsequently arranged a monitored call in which Duggar allegedly admitted a second time. Bond was set at $600,000. The court barred unsupervised contact with any minor. Arraignment is scheduled for April 20.In Arkansas, both Joseph and his wife Kendra Duggar, 27, face four counts each of second-degree endangering the welfare of a minor and four counts each of second-degree false imprisonment — misdemeanor charges that correspond to the children in their home. Kendra was arrested and released on $1,470 bond. Both have Arkansas court dates in late April. Investigators reportedly found locks installed on the exterior of room doors in the home, a detail that carries potential evidentiary weight for both the endangerment and false imprisonment charges.The legal question that extends beyond these specific charges involves Jim Bob Duggar and the family's documented history of handling abuse allegations internally. Josh Duggar's molestation of family members was publicly reported to have been known to Jim Bob years before any law enforcement contact. Josh Duggar is now serving approximately 12 and a half years in federal prison for possession of child sexual abuse material. Whether mandatory reporting obligations were violated in prior incidents — and whether any statute of limitations forecloses accountability — are questions the legal system has yet to formally address.Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer and retired FBI Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke assess the procedural implications, the evidentiary significance of the documented admissions, and whether investigators are positioned to examine the broader family structure.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This week, Emily Bazelon, John Dickerson, and David Plotz discuss yesterday's oral arguments in the monumentally important birthright citizenship case at the Supreme Court, Trump's primetime attempt to convince Americans that both their wallets and the Iran war are just fine, and strategy versus vibes in key Senate races in Maine and Texas.For this week's Slate Plus bonus episode, Emily, John, and David discuss the launch of NASA's Artemis II mission to the Moon. They muse poetically about space exploration, ask what NASA has been doing all this time, and discuss the benefits to humanity of such expensive missions. In the latest Gabfest Reads, David Plotz talks with journalist Gabriel Sherman about his new book Bonfire of the Murdochs: How the Epic Fight to Control the Last Great Media Dynasty Broke a Family—and the World. Sherman, who also wrote the bestselling biography of Fox News chief Roger Ailes, spent 15 years reporting on the Murdoch empire. In this book he turns his lens on the family itself — the rivalries, the wounds, and the secret Nevada courtroom battle that finally forced Rupert's hand.

Two arrests. Two states. Two distinct charging frameworks. The Duggar family is now navigating simultaneous criminal exposure in Florida and Arkansas — and the legal specifics of each case matter in ways that most coverage failed to separate.This week on True Crime Today, Tony Brueski and criminal defense attorney Bob Motta break down the precise legal architecture of both cases.Joseph Duggar faces two Florida life felony charges — molestation of a victim under 12 and lewd and lascivious behavior by a person 18 or older. Each count carries either a life sentence or a minimum split sentence of 25 years followed by lifetime probation and community control. The charges originate from a forensic interview in which a now-14-year-old girl alleged repeated abuse during a 2020 family vacation in Panama City Beach when she was approximately 9 years old. Per the Bay County Sheriff's Office arrest affidavit, Joseph allegedly admitted his conduct to the victim's father, and then again to a Tontitown police detective who was placed on the same call. Joseph has waived extradition and is awaiting transfer to Florida where the alleged offenses occurred.Kendra Duggar was separately arrested in Arkansas on misdemeanor charges — four counts each of endangering the welfare of a minor and false imprisonment — tied to the four Duggar children currently in the home. These charges are legally distinct from the Florida case and originated in the mandatory home study that Joseph's arrest triggered under Arkansas law. The Tontitown investigation is confirmed to be ongoing.The two cases share a family but not a charging theory, not a jurisdiction, and not a legal standard. Bob Motta walks through how defense counsel manages simultaneous multi-state exposure, what the extradition waiver signals procedurally, and how the alleged pre-arrest admissions — made without counsel present — factor into the evidentiary picture going forward.Josh Duggar's statement through counsel characterizing the allegations as sensationalized fiction — issued while Joseph had allegedly already made documented admissions — is addressed in full. As is the fact that Josh Duggar has now retained new high-profile legal counsel to challenge his own conviction, a detail that speaks directly to the behavioral pattern Robin Dreeke identifies running through this entire family system.Two cases. One legal breakdown. All of it here.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
