The history of immigration law in the US is a two and a half century parade of heinous, racist, and xenophobic laws. I'm starting to suspect that borders were always about white supremacy, empire, colonialism, and capitalist hegemony. This is a sample of a premium episode. Sign up to listen to the entire episode. patreon.com/wetwired The only exceptions were a few laws passed that merely repealed horrific ones, or traded some decency and humanity for political convenience; still in service of empire or capitalist hegemony. The Alien and Sedition Acts authorized the detention or deportation of people seen as posing political threats to the United States and those from “hostile” nations. Among the acts was the Alien Enemies Act, which authorized the President to detain, relocate, or deport immigrants from hostile countries in a time of war. This was only 8 years after the first law in the US that defined eligibility for citizenship by naturalization, in 1790. Congress limited this right to “free white persons,” meaning white, property-owning men. The framework of US immigration policy hasn't substantively changed since The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965. Arbitrary numbers cap the number of people who can move to the US, by the accident of their birth in another country. Capital and wealthy people can move freely, of course.

Truth Be Told with Booker Scott – The Democrat Party's immigration narrative shifts from George Floyd protests to defending an MS‑13‑linked “Maryland father.” Senator Van Hollen's El Salvador trip overlooks this individual's terror ties under the Alien and Sedition Act. Clashing arguments on executive authority, due process, and political strategy frame a debate on terrorism and immigration.

Clay is joined by one of his favorite guests and favorite people, historian Joe Ellis of Vermont. The discussion is about the Trump administration's attempt to pull the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 out of the historical dust and apply it to what it regards as undesirable foreigners in the United States. Two Alien acts, the Sedition Act, and the Naturalization Act were passed by a Federalist Congress during a war scare in 1798, the so-called Quasi War. The Alien Enemies Act permitted the president to deport any foreign person he regarded as a national security threat, without due process, without a hearing public or private, and without the benefit of counsel. In the presidential campaign of 2024 Donald Trump declared that he would be invoking the Alien Enemies Act, which is still on the books. He has begun to deport what he regards as Venezuelan gang members and other undesirables (as he sees them). The federal courts now will have to determine if the Alien Enemies Act is a legal tool in President Trump's campaign to control immigration to the United States. Joe Ellis provides vital and essential historical context for this vexed issue. This interview was recorded on 22 March 2025.

Patrick Henry is one of the most famous voices of the American Revolution. He was known in his own time for his powerful speeches and his unwavering commitment to liberty. But did you know that later in life, Patrick Henry opposed the United States Constitution? Did you know that during the political crisis of 1798/99, George Washington wrote to Patrick Henry and asked him to save the nation? In honor of the 250th anniversary of Patrick Henry's most famous speech, “Give Me Liberty, or Give Me Death,” award-winning historian John Ragosta joins us to investigate the life and work of Patrick Henry.

Astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore are back on Earth after spending nine months on the International Space Station, a big change from their initial mission that was only supposed to last eight days. Their replacement crew arrived last week, and they landed back on our planet on Tuesday following a 17-hour ride. Although they are home safe and sound, Williams and Wilmore have a long rehabilitation process ahead. Retired NASA astronaut Clayton "AstroClay" Anderson joins the Rundown to describe the return process for spacemen and what the road ahead looks like. President Trump has invoked the Alien and Sedition Acts, an 18th-century wartime law, to deport illegal immigrants believed to be part of Tren de Aragua, a dangerous Venezuelan prison gang. The law gives the President the authority to deport foreign nationals during wartime, and the deportation of several Venezuelans is already facing legal challenges from federal courts. Former Deputy Assistant Attorney General and UC Berkeley law professor John Yoo joins the podcast to explain the argument that the Trump administration will make in court for their use of this wartime act to deport violent criminals.

"With respect to alien enemies, no doubt has been intimated as to the federal authority over them." That was James Madison, referring to the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 - an act he saw as constitutional while rejecting the rest of the Alien and Sedition Acts. In this episode, you'll learn what the act actually says, why Madison defended it while opposing the others, and how narrowly it applies in practice. The post Alien Enemies Act: Why James Madison DIDN'T Oppose it first appeared on Tenth Amendment Center.

It's time for part 2 of our Death Penalty series! Since this is a Mormon podcast, we first look into the history of Mormons and the death penalty. Joseph Smith and Brigham Young both ordered assassinations and fostered environments where random acts of violence became inevitable. The State of Deseret, Utah, has a comparatively bloody, theocratic history. Then we take a broader view of religion and capital punishment. After that, we look into the ethics/morals of capital punishment and give you a look at the Innocence project. We wrap by discussing your responses from Survey #1 as well as our own viewpoints on the subject.   Survey #2: After listening to these episodes, we'd like to hear if your insights or opinions have changed and how. https://forms.gle/Vjn48xzWgCWcJR8r8  Show Notes:  Trump v United States: Oral argument on the former president's immunity claim: https://www.c-span.org/program/public-affairs-event/trump-v-united-states-oral-argument-on-the-former-presidents-immunity-claim/640481 23-939 Trump v United States (7/1/2024) https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf/23-939_e2pg.pdf Account of hearing between circa 3 and 9 June 1837 state of Ohio v Joseph Smith for threatening to take life: https://www.josephsmithpapers.org/paper-summary/account-of-hearing-between-circa-3-and-9-june-1837-state-of-ohio-v-js-for-threatening-to-take-life/1#facts Joseph, in the Elder's Journal, discusses the Kirtland  Bank and Warren Parrish and Grandison Newell's charges against hi: https://bhroberts.org/records/5tcqZf-vSQSfc/joseph_in_the_elders_journal_discusses_the_kirtland_bank_and_warren_parrish_and_grandison_newells_charges_against_him  Orson Hyde, Life lessons learned: https://rsc.byu.edu/vol-3-no-2-2002/orson-hyde-life-lessons-learned  Danites: https://www.josephsmithpapers.org/topic/danites  Danite Manifesto: https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Danite_Manifesto The Danite Constitution and Theories of Democratic Justice in Frontier America: https://scholarsarchive.byu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=5074&context=byusq   Journal of Mormon History Vol 30, No. 2, 2004: https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1043&context=mormonhistory General Smith's views of the powers and policy of the government of the United States circa 26 January - 7 February 1844: https://www.josephsmithpapers.org/paper-summary/general-smiths-views-of-the-powers-and-policy-of-the-government-of-the-united-states-circa-26-january-7-february-1844/12#full-transcript Journal of Mormon History Vol 33, No 1, 2007: https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1049&context=mormonhistory   The Coming Storm: The murder of Jesse Thompson Hartley: https://user.xmission.com/~research/mormonpdf/storm.pdf  The wound the never healed: https://www.prestopreservation.com/uploads/5/2/5/3/52533793/morrisite_story_small.pdf  Official position on capital punishment of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints: https://newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/official-statement/capital-punishment    The Movement to Abolish Capital Punishment in America 1787-1861: https://www.jstor.org/stable/1847110?read-now=1&seq=8 “Caedite eos.

An act against the Constitution is no law at all - it's void. This principle, rooted in the American Revolution and the debates over the Constitution's ratification, was central to President Thomas Jefferson's response to the Sedition Act of 1798. In this episode, we explore how Jefferson's adherence to his oath to the Constitution led him to treat this attack on freedom of speech as null and void - regardless of whether Congress, the courts, or anyone else agreed. The post Oath vs Censorship: Jefferson on the Duty to Stop Unconstitutional Laws first appeared on Tenth Amendment Center.

This week we cover the Alien and Sedition Acts as the Adams Administration wrestles with a culture war.

John Adams was instrumental in America's efforts for independence, the formation of our early government, and the cementing of norms and systems during the republic's early years. And yet he seems most often remembered for the controversial Alien and Sedition Acts, and his complicated relationship with Thomas Jefferson?Historian and Executive Director of the George Washington Presidential Library Dr. Lindsay Chervinsky joins Jeff this week to discuss Adams as a thinker, leader, and man, shedding new light on how much of his work we still follow today, even if we don't realize it.#johnadams #potus #historyLearn more about Lindsay: https://www.lindsaychervinsky.com/Get her book: https://a.co/d/6OOF1nyLearn about the George Washington Library: https://www.mountvernon.org/libraryListen to Lindsay's podcast: https://www.georgewashingtonpodcast.com/show/conversations/Host: Jeff SikkengaExecutive Producer: Jeremy GyptonSubscribe: https://linktr.ee/theamericanidea

Have you ever wondered what it was like to live in America during its early years? Well, we're all about to find out sooner rather than later. What President John Adams with the Alien and Sedition Acts in 1798, Kash Patel is about to finish in 2025. Kash Patel has been appointed by Trump to serve as the director of the FBI. He's a loyalist, a Trump zealot, and potentially one of the more frightening cabinet picks.In 2023, Patel appeared on Steve Bannon War Room podcast and said the following: “We're going to come after the people in the media who lied about American citizens, who helped Joe Biden rig presidential elections. Whether it's criminally or civilly, we'll figure that out.”Did you hear that? He wants to arrest journalists who are against Trump. He wants the lying to be a federal crime. He wants any form of dissent from his party to be punished. Even if it can only end up in civil court, if you're an enemy of his and an enemy of Trumps, you're gonna pay. one way or another. The best part is “we'll figure that out.”That sounds like a modern twist on Lavrentiy Beria's infamous quote, “Show me the man and I'll show you the crime.” And just so you know, Beria was deputy premier to Stalin's. Beria kept himself busy expanding the gulags and other secret detention facilities for political prisoners. Glad to see that Patel has appropriate role models.***Thanks for listening to Overnight Opinions, a recurring news show on topics the mainstream media isn't telling you.

In this episode of Dave Does History on Bill Mick Live, Dave Bowman dives into one of the most transformative moments in American history: the Election of 1800. Known as the "Revolution of 1800," this pivotal event marked the first peaceful transfer of power between opposing political parties and tested the young republic's capacity to endure fierce ideological divides. Dave unpacks the bitter campaign between Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, the key issues that polarized the nation—like the Alien and Sedition Acts, taxation, and foreign policy—and the unprecedented Electoral College tie that sent the election to the House of Representatives. Along the way, he explores the role of Aaron Burr, whose ambitions stirred additional controversy, and highlights the colorful insults hurled between candidates in what was perhaps the nastiest campaign in U.S. history. With humor, insight, and historical analysis, Dave reveals how this contentious election reshaped the presidency, solidified the two-party system, and led to the creation of the 12th Amendment. Tune in for a gripping tale of political rivalries, constitutional crises, and the enduring lessons of 1800.

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.

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Poe - Episode 291.  Poe and the OutsiderIn the previous episode the character of the ghost of Mr. Poe and I first discussed the Alien and Sedition Acts.   First, I'd like to apologize I have a cold/flu, and just listened to my recorded voice - you will just have to bear with me. Of course, that gives the voice of the ghost of Mr. Poe - a Southern accent tooAnd here's the ghost of Mr. Poe -Hello, Mr. Bartley - I believe you want to talk about the Alien and Sedition Acts, and how they indirectly affected my literary works. Now remember, while I was certainly born after the Alien and Sedition Acts were enacted and repealed, these laws quite possibly had an indirect influence on my writing and political views. Although they were no longer in effect during my Poe's lifetime, their legacy continued to shape political debates and attitudes towards government power.

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Poe - Episode 290 - Alien - or perhaps more accurately Poe and The Alien and Sedition Acts.   And no, I am not going to talk about little creatures from outer space.This podcast will deal with Alien and Sedition Acts of 1798 - acts which very well may have affected Poe - but first I want to talk about those acts as they have recently been discussed by President-Elect Trump.

"A nullification of the act is the rightful remedy." That's how Thomas Jefferson put it in his draft Resolutions against the Alien and Sedition Acts. On November 10, 1798, the Kentucky legislature passed resolutions based on his principles. They not only reaffirmed the Constitution's structure a strict line between delegated and reserved powers, but also laid out how to defend it against violations of the constitution by the federal government. The post Nullify: Thomas Jefferson's Radical Declaration They Want You to Ignore first appeared on Tenth Amendment Center.

It's easy to dismiss nativist rhetoric as mere Trumpy “locker room talk.” But when it comes to immigration, deportation and even detention, rhetoric about foreigners and violent invaders is actually a legal long game. Toward the end of the summer of 2023, Katherine Yon Ebright, counsel in the Brennan Center's Liberty and National Security Program, noticed that rightwing anti immigration groups and the Trump campaign had started talking in earnest about using a very old law with a very dark history, in order to do very chilling things to immigrants. She started researching the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, the sole operative part of the notorious Alien and Sedition Acts. By October 2024, Donald Trump was invoking the statute in most of his stump speeches, saying he intends to use it to carry out the mass deportations of non-citizens, without due process and with domestic law enforcement deployed to full effect. We are already seeing Texas trying to use the language of “foreign invasion” to achieve exactly these ends. On this week's Amicus podcast, Dahlia Lithwick asks Katherine Yon Ebright to help the rest of us catch up with her deep dive on this dangerous law, and to explain why we should take the threats to use it literally and seriously.

Donald Trump is insane. He's also a fascist. Not a Republican. Not an American. He's a full fledged, brown shirt wearing fascist. At rallies this week he has stated that he will use the 1789 Alien and Sedition Acts to arrest anyone he wants to in the middle of the night. He will go after migrants no matter what their legal status and he'll use authoritarian powers to go after ANYONE who does please the Chito Mussolini. It's chilling. We discuss. We look at some good news from Alan Lictmann and his predictions for the election. We also sing a few songs and play a few clips. Get busy and vote!!! TRUMP MUST BE STOPPED!!!

“It's a free country.” Many of us recall saying that as children as we learned that we were American citizens who were endowed with certain rights—such as free speech. We would use those words when we wanted to assert our own rights when we were being bullied or chastised. We would use them to let others know that even if we did not agree with what they were saying or doing, they were within their rights to express certain opinions or to do certain things. How many American adults feel as confident now about expressing our views in public settings as we did when we were children or young adults? In his authoritative but general-reader-friendly new book, The Indispensable Right: Free Speech in an Age of Rage legal scholar and public intellectual Jonathan Turley argues that many Americans nowadays are “speech phobic” and employ terms such as “hate speech” to shut down legitimate discussion of such topics as immigration, government policies during the height of the Covid pandemic and transgenderism. He maintains that free expression is imperative for human flourishing and that stifling it can lead to a spiral of frustration boiling up to rage, which is then repressed by expressions of state rage such as the Palmer Raids and the excesses of McCarthyism. Turley walks us through the history of free speech in America and across today's minefields of topics that can get even average people cancelled—and what forms “canceling” can take. In approachable, fairly short chapters Professor Turley reminds us of how quickly some of the heroes of the American Revolution and champions of liberty devolved into semi-tyrants. His treatment of John Adams and the Alien and Sedition Acts (the latter of which rendered it a crime to, “print, utter, or publish...any false, scandalous, and malicious writing” about the government) is particularly eye-opening and provides crucial background as the reader proceeds through the book. The concept of sedition is a major focus of the book and alerts us as citizens that it is not a matter confined to centuries ago, but a matter very much in the forefront of the American legal and political landscape in the wake what happened in Washington DC in January 2021. Indeed, what we should call what those events is another fascinating focus of the book. Turley argues forcefully and persuasively that January 6 was not an insurrection but a protest that became a riot. This was a brave stance to take given that, as he points out in the book, anyone who argued that January 6 was anything but an insurrection was in danger of being labeled a sympathizer or an apologist for the rioters. Turley's book has become even more of a crucial read in the wake of the anti-Israel protests on college campuses in the spring of 2024. Ditto some shockingly anti-free-speech comments recently by supposedly mainstream Democrats such as John Kerry and Hillary Clinton. We will touch on the status of free speech as an issue in the 2024 presidential election and how free speech has been impacted by the Biden-Harris administration. The topic of censorship came up, for example, in the 2024 vice-presidential debate and we will get Professor Turley's take on that. Hope J. Leman is a grants researcher.

“It's a free country.” Many of us recall saying that as children as we learned that we were American citizens who were endowed with certain rights—such as free speech. We would use those words when we wanted to assert our own rights when we were being bullied or chastised. We would use them to let others know that even if we did not agree with what they were saying or doing, they were within their rights to express certain opinions or to do certain things. How many American adults feel as confident now about expressing our views in public settings as we did when we were children or young adults? In his authoritative but general-reader-friendly new book, The Indispensable Right: Free Speech in an Age of Rage legal scholar and public intellectual Jonathan Turley argues that many Americans nowadays are “speech phobic” and employ terms such as “hate speech” to shut down legitimate discussion of such topics as immigration, government policies during the height of the Covid pandemic and transgenderism. He maintains that free expression is imperative for human flourishing and that stifling it can lead to a spiral of frustration boiling up to rage, which is then repressed by expressions of state rage such as the Palmer Raids and the excesses of McCarthyism. Turley walks us through the history of free speech in America and across today's minefields of topics that can get even average people cancelled—and what forms “canceling” can take. In approachable, fairly short chapters Professor Turley reminds us of how quickly some of the heroes of the American Revolution and champions of liberty devolved into semi-tyrants. His treatment of John Adams and the Alien and Sedition Acts (the latter of which rendered it a crime to, “print, utter, or publish...any false, scandalous, and malicious writing” about the government) is particularly eye-opening and provides crucial background as the reader proceeds through the book. The concept of sedition is a major focus of the book and alerts us as citizens that it is not a matter confined to centuries ago, but a matter very much in the forefront of the American legal and political landscape in the wake what happened in Washington DC in January 2021. Indeed, what we should call what those events is another fascinating focus of the book. Turley argues forcefully and persuasively that January 6 was not an insurrection but a protest that became a riot. This was a brave stance to take given that, as he points out in the book, anyone who argued that January 6 was anything but an insurrection was in danger of being labeled a sympathizer or an apologist for the rioters. Turley's book has become even more of a crucial read in the wake of the anti-Israel protests on college campuses in the spring of 2024.

This is the sixth episode in an occasional series examining influential elections in U.S. history. The most recent episode, Election of 2000, was published on July 11. If you believe American society has never been as politically polarized as it is now, you may not be familiar with the late 1790s. Federalists and Republicans viciously attacked each other, trading accusations of frittering away the Constitution and imperiling the legacy of the American Revolution. The incumbent president John Adams was beset by a crisis with France verging on war. His vice president, Thomas Jefferson, was the leader of the political opposition. In this episode, historian Alan Taylor takes us back to a crazy time: the XYZ Affair, the Alien and Sedition Acts, and Aaron Burr! The election of 1800 had to be decided in the House of Representatives amid scheming to deny Jefferson the presidency. Jefferson's victory brought on the first peaceful transfer of power in the new republic, an important tradition that lasted until the election of 2020.

Over a century ago, Eugene Debs ran from his prison cell. Debs, a socialist and labor activist, secured nearly 1 million votes while behind bars for running afoul of the Sedition Act of 1918.

On this day in 1920, the Socialist Party of America nominated Eugene V. Debs as its presidential candidate.     See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On November 7, 2023, historians Carol Berkin, author of A Sovereign People: The Crises of the 1790s and the Birth of American Nationalism, and H.W. Brands, author of Founding Partisans: Hamilton, Jefferson, Madison, Adams, and the Brawling Birth of American Politics, joined Jeffrey Rosen for a conversation on political partisanship and nationalism in early America, and how, despite the founders' fear of factionalism, deep partisan divisions emerged almost immediately after the Revolution. They discuss the election of 1800, the first hotly contested partisan election in American history, and trace the history of American partisanship to the present day.     Resources:  H.W.
