As a direct descendant of Benjamin Franklin, the Chapman University economist Mark Skousen might be a bit biased. That said, Skousen makes an entertaining case in his new book, The Greatest American, for Franklin as being the most innovative and versatile of the Founding Fathers. Skousen acknowledges Franklin's contradictions: his transition from slave owner to abolitionist, his notoriety as a ladies' man and, above all, his moral philosophy of deploying his private wealth for the public good. What we are left with is the most human and least overtly political of all the Founding Fathers. Five Key Takeaways * Versatile Genius: Franklin excelled in numerous fields, with Skousen identifying 22 different careers including printing, science, diplomacy, and civic leadership, making him uniquely accomplished among American historical figures.* Ethical Capitalism: Franklin represents an ideal capitalist model who made his fortune by age 42, then dedicated the rest of his life to public service, establishing libraries, hospitals, and other civic institutions.* Personal Evolution: Franklin demonstrated willingness to change his views, most notably transitioning from slave owner to becoming the first president of Pennsylvania's abolitionist society.* Political Pragmatism: Franklin defied easy political categorization, valuing practical solutions over ideology and warning against concentrated power with his famous quote: "a republic, if you can keep it."* Complex Character: Despite his accomplishments, Franklin had notable flaws, including nepotism and his reputation as a "ladies' man," creating a complicated legacy that transcends simple hero worship.Mark Skousen holds the Doti-Spogli Chair of Free Enterprise at Chapman University in California. As an eighth-generation direct descendant of Benjamin Franklin, he has had a lifelong interest in the “grandfather” of our nation. Dr. Skousen's career has often followed that of his illustrious ancestor, as a publisher, author, financial advisor, teacher, father, public servant, and world traveler. In 2006, he and his wife, Jo Ann, compiled and edited The Compleated Autobiography by Benjamin Franklin, covering the remainder of his career, 1757–1790 (published by Regnery History).Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators.

The National Security Hour with Col. Mike – The idea of destroying foreign tariffs that damage American exporters is an admirable plan.

In one of the most exhaustive, scripture based presentations on the Atonement, respected gospel scholar W. Cleon Skousen opens our understanding of the majesty and breadth of Jesus' sacrifice and how we can apply the principles of the Atonement in our lives. As stated by Elder Bruce R. McConkie, "The doctrine of the Atonement embraces, sustains, supports, and gives life and force to all other gospel doctrines. It is the foundation upon which all truth rests..." So what is the meaning of the Atonement? And why is the Atonement even necessary? At the young age of 17, Brother Skousen embarks on his mission to England with these questions in mind. With the guidance of his mission president, Apostle John A. Widtsoe, and after decades of scriptural study, he discovers the answers to these profound questions. Presented in a simple and beautiful manner, Dr. Skousen lays out the findings of his lifelong search in this popular address given at a mission conference in Dallas, Texas. He presents the answers to the Meaning of the Atonement, why it is necessary, the source of God's power and the key to understanding how the Atonement can become a reality in your own personal life and why it is so vital to your personal salvation and exaltation.

For over 50 years, For the Strength of Youth has been a guide for generations of Latter-day Saint youth. I always keep a copy in my pocket, and I share it with people who are curious about our standards. It has been updated and refreshed to better cope with the challenges and temptations of our day. The new version of For the Strength of Youth is available online in 50 different languages and will also be available in print. It will be a significant help for making choices in your life. Please embrace it as your own and share it with your friends. This new version of For the Strength of Youth is subtitled A Guide for Making Choices. To be very clear, the best guide you can possibly have for making choices is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the strength of youth. So the purpose of For the Strength of Youth is to point you to Him. It teaches you eternal truths of His restored gospel—truths about who you are, who He is, and what you can accomplish with His strength. It teaches you how to make righteous choices based on those eternal truths.13 It's also important to know what For the Strength of Youth does not do. It doesn't make decisions for you. It doesn't give you a “yes” or “no” about every choice you might ever face. For the Strength of Youth focuses on the foundation for your choices. It focuses on values, principles, and doctrine instead of every specific behavior. The Lord, through His prophets, has always been guiding us in that direction. He is pleading with us to “increase [our] spiritual capacity to receive revelation.”14 He is inviting us to “hear Him.”15 He is calling us to follow Him in higher and holier ways.16 And we are learning in a similar way every week in Come, Follow Me.

After completing the biography of "The Real Thomas Jefferson" with Andy Allison, W. Cleon Skousen gives a beautiful recap of the book and the life of this remarkable Founder. He portrays not only the life and legacy of Thomas Jefferson, but also the spirit of Thomas Jefferson, truly one of America's foremost founding fathers. Jefferson's unyielding commitment to personal integrity, principles of liberty and self-determination launched his influential role in drafting the Declaration of Independence, principles of self-governance, and ultimately President of the United States. Unknown to many casual history students, Jefferson had many trials, both personal and professional, including the deep sorrow from personal losses and the vengeful, scandalous accusations during his presidency. Dr. Skousen provides insight into Jefferson's influence on American law and governance, his presidency, and his lasting impact on the nation's path towards freedom and democracy. A reflection on his visionary reforms in Virginia and his post-presidency years offers a comprehensive portrayal of his enduring contributions.
In the first hour, publisher Joel Skousen delved into the complexities of drone sightings, their potential implications for national security, and why experts have trouble telling the difference between drones, aircraft, and UFOs. There has been a prevalence of strange sightings across the US, particularly in New York and New Jersey. After reviewing hundreds of videos, he believes that some of the objects are clearly not drones. "Drones simply can't travel across the sky in a second and a half... that's more speed than hypersonic," he remarked, adding that "95% of hobby drones don't have transponders," making them nearly invisible to radar, and all the more difficult to track at night.Regarding the drones, "the government is not being forthcoming... to say it's not foreign indicates that they're hiding something," he continued. Skousen also touched on the phenomenon of drones purportedly shooting lasers, suggesting that while there are videos of such events, the craft may be more likely to be UFOs. The public deserves clarity on aerial threats, he urged, especially given the historical context of military operations that often go unannounced. However, he dismissed claims that the recent drone sightings could be a prelude to a "false flag" operation, stating, "It can't be a false flag if it doesn't generate massive public fear... there's been no damage." He added that while UFOs may be investigating nuclear facilities, they do not interfere with human activities.------------In the middle two hours, space historian Robert Zimmerman discussed the evolving landscape of space exploration, emphasizing the crucial role of private companies, and what we might expect in the new year. "I don't want a space program. A space program implies that somebody in the government is dictating what everyone must do," he stated, advocating for a competitive environment that fosters innovation. He highlighted SpaceX's dominance, noting they "actually had more launches than everyone else in the entire world combined." However, he lamented the challenges smaller startups face due to stringent regulations imposed by the FAA, which he described as a "nightmare" that has stifled innovation. He argued that this regulatory framework has driven many promising companies out of the market, and called for a return to a more flexible regulatory environment like in 2020.Zimmerman also shared insights on NASA's future direction under the potential leadership of Jared Isaacman, a billionaire with private spaceflight experience. He believes NASA should focus on purchasing services from private companies rather than building everything in-house. He contrasted the high costs associated with NASA's Space Launch System (SLS) and Orion capsule with SpaceX's Starship, which he said could operate at a fraction of the price. Zimmerman expressed concerns about NASA's upcoming Artemis missions to the Moon, and anticipates further delays in their timeline to launch in 2026. He continues to be excited about Mars rovers Curiosity and Perseverance, which are exploring new terrains and providing stunning visuals.

BYU and SLC anti-vice. We discuss the history of Charles A. Callis, his career in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and politics, and his final assignment before death, creating a sexual purity surveillance and counseling/therapy program for Mormons in the 40s. After his death, Spencer W. Kimball took the reins and vastly expanded the reach and purposes of the program, resulting in The Miracle of Forgiveness. Cleon Skousen was running raids on gay clubs and anybody else seen as commie enemies of god's country. The systems they created have adapted, evolved, and conformed to the times, but never gone away, as evidenced by the recent SL Tribue piece about BYU's retrenchment and culture of fear. Then we chat about Minority report, a Tom Cruise sci-fi flick with surprisingly profound concepts. We wrap with happy news about the first openly transgender congressperson in American history.

Economic freedom, in the context of the rule of law, is the best formula for success and prosperity.”Mark Skousen is said to be one of the top 20 most influential living economists in the world. He's written over 25 books on personal finance and investing, including two of America's definitive textbooks on economics.“We have to make the right decisions to encourage, to increase our standard of living. That is the ultimate purpose of economics—to tell us how to do that,” says Mr. Skousen.He's also the producer of the annual libertarian FreedomFest conference. In anticipation of the event next month, we sat down to discuss some of the major myths and misconceptions about our economy today.“Even the stock market, by the way, is at an all-time high. But in real terms, after inflation, it's the same [as] it was in 2021,” says Mr. Skousen.He says that since World War II, America has been in a state of permanent inflation, and that returning to the Adam Smith model of economics is the only way to get back to what he calls “enlightened capitalism.”“I judge every economist on whether they are defending and improving upon the Adam Smith model of economic liberty, or are trying to tear it down and build their own system of socialism, Keynesianism, totalitarianism, and so forth,” says Mr. Skousen.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

How should we define these terms "Left" and "Right" ? What do they, and what should they mean ? We take a break from our time with Professor Helmut Thielicke (Theology, Univ. Hamburg, Germany) to have an excursus on the topic that Thielicke raised and that we discussed here on The Republican Professor Podcast. And that topic is: What is Left ? What is Right ? A Study of Political Extremism, and our special guest on the podcast today is W. Cleon Skousen. Professor Skousen died before we were able to get him on the podcast in person.

The famous saying goes, "Those who cannot remember the past, or fail to learn from it, are condemned to repeat it." Seventy years ago, former G man and faith-based political theorist, W. Cleon Skousen prognosticated the Marxist overthrow of the USA, and even warned us how it would be accomplished. Today, Paul & Mike sit down around the G Base campfire with legendary NC Scout to discuss Skousen's work, and provide some insight on the future of America.

Can some of the history we have been told have some other sides/agendas? Are there going to be a world war 3? What can you do if it as nuclear fallout? This can seems like a lot of doom and gloom. In this episode with Joel Schousen we try to learn more about different perspectives about our history and how we can be mentally prepared if there is a large war. Skousen is the founder and chief editor of World Affairs Brief a weekly news-analysis service. Some of Skousen's views are controversial. He made the case that the Fall of Communism was, also as claimed by KGB defector Anatoliy Golitsyn, a "carefully crafted deception," meant to gain Western aid and technology transfers that would eventually end in a resurgence of the Russian threat. Joel shares his views about that in this episode. In his weekly briefings Skousen has also written extensively about the evidence of conspiracy by government to cover up its own involvement in numerous black operations such as the JFK assassination, the Oklahoma City bombing, TWA 800 and the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center. He is particularly a harsh critic of what he calls the "phony war on terror" used to conjure up justification for continual foreign intervention and the diminution of American constitutional rights; he is also very critical of globalism, communism, and the U.S. interventionist foreign policy. Skousen has written several books. including Essential Principles for the Conservation of Liberty, Strategic Relocation – North American Guide to Safe Places, The Secure Home, Survival Home Manual: Architectural Design, Construction, and Remodeling Of Self-Sufficient Residences and Retreats, and How to Implement a High Security Shelter in the Home. He also published a booklet titled 10 Packs for Survival, which he has also posted to several web sites. We wish you a great listen and hope you can use this episode as an inspiration!

Here is one from the archives. We released this episode with Jonathan Neville back on April 8, 2022. Jonathan Neville is a big-tent proponent when it comes to Book of Mormon beliefs. Part of that likely stems from Heartland being shut out of groups like Book of Mormon Central. But Jonathan is also wants to keep the tent open for people who believe in a non-historical Book of Mormon. https://youtu.be/yfbOflp3OD4 Non-Historical Book of Mormon? Jonathan: But it all comes back to this Mesoamerican thing, because I think once the scholars convince people that Oliver Cowdery and Joseph Smith were wrong about the Hill Cumorah, that was like a chink in the armor. They could be wrong about anything else. They said, "If they were wrong about something they said was a fact, then they could be wrong about anything else." So, they can be wrong about the translation. I don't know if you know, Skousen recently published a thing in The Interpreter about how now he's saying that Oliver Cowdery deliberately misled everybody about the translation. GT 2:56:48 Royal Skousen. Jonathan 2:56:48 Royal Skousen. And I couldn't disagree more, but I understand why he says that because the Mesoamerican thing opened the door to questioning everything Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery taught, and you end up with, what's left? Everybody just kind of says, "Well, as long as you believe in Christ, that's all the matters." But, come on. I mean, when it gets down to it, the only evidence that we have of the restoration of the priesthood is from Oliver Cowdery. Joseph Smith talked about it, but he didn't talk about the event. Yet, they're saying Oliver Cowdery was wrong about the Hill Cumorah? So, what I advocate is not anybody agree with anything that I say. I advocate, let's get all the facts out, and then let's look at the different interpretations of the facts. You go all the way from Dan Vogel and Tom Murphy, through Jack Welch, John Sorenson and Dan Peterson. Then, over here we have Rod Meldrum, and Wayne May on the geography issue, or me on the translation or whatever. Let's just put all of them out and let's get rid of this citation cartel that censors things they don't like. The Interpreter, to me, is an appalling journal. It shouldn't even be considered an academic journal. GT 2:57:20 Yet, you read it. Jonathan 2:58:06 Well, I have a blog called The Interpreter Peer Reviewed, where once in a while someone will send me an article, "You've got to deal with this." I read it, okay. Then, what I would do is a peer review. I understand it's more of a peer approval process that it goes through with those guys, because everybody on their peer review process already drinks the Kool Aid. I mean, they don't consider an outside perspective, and I know, because I've talked with them. I know how they are, and you can read it in their journals. They get upset that I even talk about it. Dan Peterson freaks out. In Dan Peterson's own blog that he does on his Patheos, whatever, he's referred to me several times and wants everybody read this critical web page. There's a page that's critical of me all the time. At first, I thought, "Well, I should respond to that." But then I read it. It's so ludicrous. I feel like if people can't discern fact from sophistry, then that's on them. I'm not going to spend all my time tamping down all the sophistry going around. Jonathan 2:59:12 I just feel like people need to present the facts. If The Interpreter--the name Interpreter kind of tells it all, because they feel like they are the credentialed class. They are the ones that have been hired by the prophets to guide the rest of us, that kind of stuff which they've said. And the name Interpreter, alone, is a non-starter, because they're trying to interpret the scriptures for us. I think the scriptures are given to ordinary people that we can understand and interpret for ourselves. We don't need some scholars interpreting it for us.
