What is conservatism? What is the Republican Party? In the years since Donald Trump headed down that golden escalator, American conservatism has suffered an identity crisis. Is it the party of Ronald Reagan, a party of limited government, low taxes, and free markets? Is it the party of Donald Trump a party of nationalism, xenophobia, and owning the libs? Josh Lewis the force behind the Saving Elephants podcast joins me in a wide-ranging conversation about the nature of conservatism before and during Trump and how what passes as conservatism is different from the conservatism Josh is familiar with. About Josh: Josh is CPA in Tulsa, Oklahoma who is a lifelong Republican had led his university chapter of the College Republicans and was the Treasurer of the Tulsa County Republican Party. He's a diligent student of American conservatism and is passionate to find ways for conservatives to survive and thrive in the 21st century. Josh has contributed to such publications as The Millennial Review and The Liberty Hawk.

In this self reflective episode Justin discusses the history of the Millennial Review and why he needs to step away for a while to re-evaluate his life and social media's position in it.
Saving Elephants | Millennials defending & expressing conservative values
Josh and Bob continue their discussion from last week, further demystifying socialism. The episode opens with a three-minute clip of Leftist Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) responding to a moderator’s questions in a recent townhall. Her brief clip encapsulates much of the socialist mindset Josh and Bob had discussed in Part 1. After recapping their understanding of socialism, Josh and Bob turn to the three most common “methods” socialists advocate to bring about a socialist economy and society. They are: Social Democrats Communists/Revolutionaries Democratic Socialists Josh and Bob walk through the differences and sometimes maddeningly nuanced similarities between these three methods in their attempt to understand socialism. And, of course, they offer their counterpoints and conservative critiques throughout. It’s no secret that younger Americans are increasingly drawn to socialism. But what is socialism? Do people who say they support socialism simply mean they want something other than what we have now, or do they have a firm grasp of socialist economic theory and complex vision of what a socialist America would look like? While some conservatives may dismiss calls for socialism as foolish and not worth debating, Millennial conservatives don’t have that luxury. We understand that calls for a socialist state are not a passing fad but a significant shift in how Americans are beginning to think. And if conservatives are going to defend the free market, we must first begin to understand what socialism is before we can show how capitalism offers a better alternative. On December 16, 2019 the Leftist podcast Millennial Review ran an episode entitled What is Socialism (Parts One and Two) in which cohosts Trevor and Justin described what socialism means, how to create a socialist state, and what such a state might look like. Trevor and Justin are both proponents of socialism and, in defining socialism, offer their arguments in support. You can listen to their episode by clicking here.

Trevor and Justin are both proponents of socialism and, in defining socialism, offer their arguments in support. You can listen to their episode by clicking here. In this episode—the first of a two-part discussion—Josh and Bob attempt to define socialism from a conservative perspective and explore the socialist notions of seizing the means of production, private property, how labor creates value, socializing industrial vs pre-industrial societies, Marx’s theory for how capitalism would eventually collapse, and much more.
In this edition Justin dives into the shift in Debs's organizing methods, one away from disparate craft unions and toward broad based industrial unions. He looks closely at the labor fights of the day and how they shape Debs's thinking, and the battles fought and one by the American Railway Union. All laying the groundwork of a broader shift toward socialism going forward.

You may have heard of Senator Mike Gravel, or more specifically the group of high school students who convinced him to launch a presidential campaign. He then gave them access to his Twitter account which has sense become a vehicle for major criticism of the status quo and establishment Democrats like Cory Booker, Kamala Harris, and Kirsten Gillibrand. In this edition of the Millennial Review we interviewed one of the people behind the entire operation, David Oks, Senator Gravel's campaign manager. We discussed how it all came together, what his goal for the campaign is, how likely making the debate stage his, his relationship with Senator Gravel and his estimation of the man and his positions.

In the 10th installment of the Millennial Review we took a closer look at would-be-Ted-Cruz-replacer, Beto O'Rourke.

Beto's genuine and undeniable charisma, its limits, and what it means for a potential Beto candidacy/presidency. A closer look at his really conservative record in congress. Some finer points, opposing "the means" of DACA, continued support for lenders at the expense of consumers, wishy-washy at best on issues like Medicare-For-All and the Green New Deal. The very real problem with Beto's political ambition or lack of principles, whichever it is, they're both bad. And much more! As always, you can support everything we do by joining us on patreon.
