The 1st North Dakota Volunteers left Fargo in May of 1898 for service in the Spanish-American War. They went halfway around the world to defeat the Spanish in the Philippines. Emilio Aguinaldo, the leader of Philippine resistance to the Spanish, welcomed the Americans. Aguinaldo eagerly anticipated independence from Spain. He believed the United States would make the Philippines an American protectorate, with full independence guaranteed in the future.
The Spanish-American War of 1898 marked the first milestone of the US making an appearance as a global power. But the period between the two World Wars was one of isolation for the US. However, once it entered WWII in 1941, the US showed it military, economic and financial might, emerging as a global Super power, by the end of the War.

He has written many history books, including the one we're discussing this week: President McKinley: Architect of the American Century. It's a lively read, a fascinating glimpse of fin-de-siècle American politics, and of a GOP firmer on tariffs — but a hell of a lot more virtuous than it is under Trump today.For two clips of our convo — on McKinley's heroism during the Civil War, and the reasons he differs so much from Trump — head to our YouTube page.Other topics: Robert's journalist dad and his conservative influence; his own career as a journo; McKinley's roots in Ohio; his abolitionist parents; his mentor Rutherford B Hayes; his time in Congress; the economic depression of the 1890s; the debate over the gold standard; McKinley's “front-porch strategy” besting the great populist orator William Jennings Bryan; his underrated presidency; his modesty and “commanding quiet”; his incremental pragmatism — in the spirit of Oakeshott's “trimmer”; ushering in American empire; the Spanish-American War; the sinking of the Maine; taking over the Philippines; annexing Hawaii; leaving Cuba to the Cubans; the Panama Canal; McKinley's strong support of tariffs; his later pivot towards reciprocity in trade; his lackluster record on race relations; his assassination by an anarchist; Teddy taking over; his bombast contrasting with his predecessor; trust-busting; McKinley's remarkable marriage; his wife's epilepsy; HW Bush; and if a McKinley type of conservative could succeed in today's GOP.Browse the Dishcast archive for an episode you might enjoy (the first 102 are free in their entirety — subscribe to get everything else).

The 164th Infantry Regiment traces its roots back to the Dakota Territorial Militia, established in 1862. That militia evolved into the National Guard units of North and South Dakota. The North Dakota Guard served in the Spanish-American War as the 1st North Dakota Volunteer Infantry. The unit entered federal service again during World War I, becoming the 164th Infantry in 1917.

In this episode, hosts Ray Powell and Jim Carouso sit down with Cleo Paskal, a leading Indo-Pacific analyst and non-resident senior fellow at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, to unpack the growing threat of China's gray zone influence in the Pacific Islands and why it matters for the United States and its allies.Paskal explains the strategic significance of the Pacific Islands, which include U.S. territories and the three Compact of Free Association states—Palau, the Marshall Islands, and the Federated States of Micronesia. These islands serve as America's “gateway to Asia,” enabling military access and power projection across the Pacific to key allies like Japan and Taiwan. Historically, whoever controls these islands can threaten the U.S. mainland and dominate Pacific trade routes—a reality recognized since the days of President McKinley and the Spanish-American War.Cleo prefers the Filipino term “ICAD” (Illegal, Coercive, Aggressive, and Deceptive) over “gray zone” to describe China's activities. She details how Beijing uses a “braided” approach that combines commercial investments, strategic infrastructure, and criminal enterprises. Chinese-linked businesses often promise development but end up facilitating elite capture, corruption, and even state capture, while most of the population sees little benefit. Activities include:Bribery and elite capture of local officialsStrategic port and real estate acquisitions near sensitive military sitesCriminal networks trafficking drugs, gambling, and human traffickingPolitical interference, media manipulation, and lawfare against local oppositionThe podcast explores how China's influx of money and promises of quick infrastructure projects are hard for small island economies to resist—especially when Western aid is slow, bureaucratic, or absent. However, Cleo notes that Chinese economic engagement often benefits only a narrow elite and can leave countries worse off, both economically and environmentally. She argues that the West, especially the U.S., must offer meaningful economic alternatives and support for good governance, not just military or diplomatic engagement.Despite U.S. political polarization, Cleo notes that support for the Pacific Islands remains bipartisan, especially regarding the renewal of the Compacts of Free Association. She also stresses that Pacific Islanders view the U.S. differently from former colonial powers, seeing America as a beacon of liberty and democracy—an image China is actively trying to undermine through narrative warfare.This episode makes clear that the Pacific Islands are not just remote dots on the map but are central to U.S. security, the rules-based order, and the future of the Indo-Pacific. China's gray zone campaign is a sophisticated, multi-layered threat that demands urgent, coordinated action from the U.S. and its allies—combining hard security, economic opportunity, and support for local agency and resilience.Follow our podcast on X, @IndoPacPodcast; or on LinkedIn or BlueSkySponsored by BowerGroupAsia

Support us on Patreon---At the dawning of the modern era, Spain was the most Catholic country on the planet. Desite the turbulence of the Reconquista, the conquest of America, the invasion of Napoleon, and the loss of every New World colony from California to Cuba, the Roman Catholic Church remained the foundation of solid yet stultifying social order. As the people of the kingdom began to struggle against these ancient bonds, the unspeakable question was posed: could there be a Spain without the church? For generations of Spaniards, this matter was so grave that it was worth the blood of innocents, the destruction of priceless chapels and relics, and a civil war that would split Iberia, and the world, into the camps of secular Republicanism and merciless Nationalism.Longtime collaborator and Catholic correspondent James @gommunisd returns to Gladio Free Europe to explore the spiritual front of the Spanish Civil War, a complex and poignant conflict that in many ways prefigured the flames of despair that would consume nearly the entire planet in World War II. We begin with a look at the long history of anticlericalism in the Spanish Kingdom, as generations of Spaniards of all social classes rejected control of the church for various reasons and by various means. From the establishment of public schools rather than parish schools, to the violent destruction of monasteries and even killings of clergy, this had been a major part of Spanish history for a century before the Civil War. But as economic and intellectual transformations brought a semi-medieval Spanish society into the modern era, objections to this marriage of church and state became too loud to ignore. After the ruination of the Spanish American War and the despair of the Depression, the contest between a new Spain and an Old Spain boiled over an armed conflict that ended with over 200,000 innocents dead and the kingdom in the clutches of history's most successful fascist state.In the second half of the episode, James explores international religious reactions to the war in Spain. Although American Catholics were mostly Democrats within Franklin Roosevelt's progressive New Deal coalition, church institutions overwhelmingly supported the nationalist clique despite the US policy of neutrality. As evidence of right-wing atrocities mounted, the American Catholic community found itself torn apart in its own sort of civil war. Meanwhile in the United Kingdom, Catholics and Protestants alike took part in delegations to Spain, gathering vital information about the conflict as it was happening. The Spanish Civil War was a test of integrity to civil and religious institutions across the western world: When atrocities are committed in your name, do you speak up? Or do you shut your eyes as children are killed in the name of God and country?

In the late 1890s, Theodore Roosevelt emerged as a hero of the Spanish-American War and embarked on a meteoric rise through the political ranks. His bold leadership and restless energy would define a new era of Progressive change.At the end of the 19th century, the United States had become one of the world's great industrial powers. But prosperity hid the truth of a society rife with corruption and inequality. In response, a diverse group of reformers resolved to harness the power of government to build a better society. Journalists, activists, lawyers, and politicians joined Roosevelt to fight for safer workplaces, consumer protections, and corporate regulations. They were known as “Progressives.”Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!

On this episode, Tony Brueski digs into the haunting legacy of one of Florida's most opulent landmarks: the Tampa Bay Hotel. Once a playground for presidents and war heroes, this Moorish Revival masterpiece now stands as both a museum and part of the University of Tampa. But beneath its gilded surface, whispers of shadowy figures, ghostly soldiers, and a mysterious lady in white suggest that not all its guests have checked out. From the echoes of the Spanish-American War to chilling personal accounts from modern-day visitors, Tony unpacks the layers of history and mystery surrounding the Tampa Bay Hotel and its neighbor, the Oxford Exchange. Are the eerie encounters a product of psychological suggestion, environmental factors, or something far less explainable?

In this episode of the podcast, we crack open a Smuttynose "Finest Kind" IPA and dive into the fascinating life and legacy of William McKinley, the 25th President of the United States. Known to many as the "fourth assassinated president" alongside Abraham Lincoln, James Garfield, and John F. Kennedy, McKinley's story goes far beyond trivia night. From his heroic service during the Civil War to his transformative presidency, we explore what made him one of the most influential figures in American history.We discuss McKinley's courageous actions on the battlefield—running through enemy fire to deliver crucial messages—and his rise from an enlisted soldier to the rank of brevet major. Transitioning into politics, McKinley served multiple terms in the House of Representatives, became Governor of Ohio, and ultimately won the presidency in 1896. Learn how his “front porch campaign” changed the face of presidential elections and why he's the only U.S. president to have served in the House but not the Senate.McKinley's presidency marked a turning point for the United States, establishing the nation as a global power. We delve into the impact of the Spanish-American War (1898), which led to the U.S. acquiring Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines, as well as the annexation of Hawaii. McKinley championed the gold standard over silver-backed currency and supported protective tariffs to boost American manufacturing—policies that draw comparisons to modern leaders like Donald Trump. We also touch on his role in strengthening the U.S. Navy, expanding the nation's global influence, and consolidating the power of the Republican Party for decades.Of course, we also cover McKinley's tragic assassination at the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York, by anarchist Leon Czolgosz—a pivotal event that reshaped presidential security and led to the Secret Service assuming its protective role. Plus, we explore the eerie coincidence of Robert Todd Lincoln, son of Abraham Lincoln, being present at the assassinations of three U.S. presidents: Lincoln, Garfield, and McKinley.Finally, we discuss the controversy surrounding Mount McKinley—North America's tallest peak—originally named in McKinley's honor but renamed Denali during the Obama administration, sparking debates about history, culture, and politics.Grab a drink, settle in, and join us for a fun and insightful conversation about history, politics, and craft beer.

Episode 233 – The Defiant Legacy of David Fagen** Welcome back to *Trey's Table*, the podcast where we explore the rich tapestry of African American history, politics, and culture. In **Episode 233**, we dive into the incredible and often overlooked story of **David Fagen**, the Black American soldier who defected during the Philippine-American War and became a captain in the Philippine revolutionary army. ### Who Was David Fagen? David Fagen was born in Tampa, Florida, around 1875. Like many African Americans of his time, he enlisted in the U.S. Army seeking opportunity and stability. He served in the **24th Infantry Regiment**, an all-Black unit, during the Spanish-American War. But when his regiment was sent to the Philippines to fight in the Philippine-American War, Fagen's story took a dramatic turn. The Philippine-American War (1899–1902) was a brutal conflict between the United States and Filipino revolutionaries fighting for independence. For Black soldiers like Fagen, this war posed a moral dilemma. They were fighting for a country that denied them basic rights at home, while also being asked to suppress another people of color fighting for their freedom. This tension would ultimately shape Fagen's decision to defect. ### The Defection That Shook the U.S. Army In November 1899, David Fagen made history by deserting the U.S. Army and joining the Filipino revolutionary forces, known as the *Katipunan*. His defection wasn't just an act of desertion—it was an act of defiance. Fagen quickly rose through the ranks, becoming a captain in the revolutionary army and leading guerrilla attacks against U.S. forces. Fagen's decision to defect was likely influenced by the racism he experienced in the U.S. military and a sense of solidarity with the Filipino people. His story is a powerful reminder of the global connections between struggles for freedom and equality. ### A Legacy of Resistance David Fagen's story doesn't have a clear ending. In 1901, reports claimed he was killed, and his head was delivered to U.S. forces as proof. However, some historians believe Fagen may have faked his death to escape the war and start a new life. Regardless of how his story ended, Fagen's legacy lives on as a symbol of resistance and solidarity. ### Why David Fagen's Story Matters Today David Fagen's story challenges us to think critically about the intersections of race, identity, and power. It reminds us that history is full of unsung heroes—people whose actions defy the status quo and inspire us to think differently about the world. In this episode, we explore Fagen's life, his decision to defect, and the broader implications of his story. It's a tale of courage, defiance, and the enduring fight for justice. --- **Listen to Episode 233 Now** If you haven't already, tune in to **Episode 233** of *Trey's Table* to hear the full story of David Fagen.

The Journey Podcast 168Richard Grove and John O'Dowd: The British State Has Poisoned the World through its EmpirePublisher Kris Millegan speaks with Richard Grove, a conceptual artist and forensic historian who provides entrepreneur, executive and employee training through his University of Reason and its flagship course, AUTONOMY. His podcast can be found at GrandTheftWorld.com.And Kris speaks with John O'Dowd, co-author with Jim Macgregor of TWO WORLD WARS AND HITLER: Who Was Responsible?, available in early 2025. John is a retired scientist who worked for the UK government and several universities as a research manager. He discovered how “the Money Power” controls academic research, paradigms and teaching content, particularly in economics, political science and history, and, increasingly, natural sciences and medicine.Kris, Richard and John discuss alternative history, a la TRAGEDY AND HOPE, the 1966 textbook by Carrol Quigley, who was trained by a Rhodes scholar, and who, as a professor of foreign service at Georgetown University, trained Rhodes scholar Bill Clinton. There has been a lot of Rhodes scholar influence in America for a long time. So, who was Cecil Rhodes?Rhodes, a Brit and a Freemason, was funded by Lord Rothschild to work in South Africa, where he took over the diamond field of a farmer named DeBeers. Rhodes made John Ruskin's dream of the British Empire taking over the world his life's work. A necessary step toward that goal was bringing America back into the Empire.In his Rhodes will set up a scholarship at Oxford University to teach students from around the world this idea of British domination. This leads to the creation of World War I and how America was brought into the war and transformed into a military state.Jim Macgregor and Gerry Docherty wrote HIDDEN HISTORY: The Secret Origins of the First World War. When their publisher wouldn't publish the second volume, Kris Millegan of TrineDay did. It's called PROLONGING THE AGONY: How the Anglo-American Establishment deliberately extended World War 1 by Three and a Half Years.Quigley learned all this from a whistleblower and in 1948 wrote THE ANGLO-AMERICAN ESTABLISHMENT, which he instructed to be published after his death, so it came out in 1981. (It has the details of this plot to recapture America and conquer the world.) Quigley also studied the Council of Foreign Relations (CFR) records for 18 years, then wrote TRAGEDY AND HOPE, which came out in 1966.TRAGEDY AND HOPE 101 by Joseph Plummer is a tight summary of both Quigley books (TRAGEDY AND HOPE and THE ANGLO-AMERICAN ESTABLISHMENT). See JoePlummer.com. Basically, the Brits are using America's military as the property manager for what used to be the British Empire.The British were in Afghanistan for over one hundred years for the opium and then they handed that off to the Americans. We pay tax dollars to have our military bases all around the world. We did not start as an empire, getting into other people's business. We got seduced into excursions like the Spanish-American War, which led us to join the plan to dominate the world.John O'Dowd: Economics as taught at universities and taken into politics and the business world is a myth. It's designed to make money go from the bottom to the top, which is one of reasons we're in the mess that we're in. It makes sense on paper, but it doesn't refer to anything in real life.To really understand economics, you must read books like ECONOMISTS AND THE POWERFUL: Convenient Theories, Distorted Facts, Ample Rewards, and THE BUBBLE AND BEYOND: Fictitious Capital, Debt Inflation and Global Crisis by Michael Hudson.Richard: Mainstream economics works backward. It doesn't start with free market capitalism. It starts with slavery and black markets, and then Adam Smith and other East India Company people are added to put a shine and polish on the slavery.

The balance of power between the United States Congress and the president is particularly contested when it comes to war powers. The U.S. Constitution gives Congress the power to declare war but Article II Section 2 declares that "[t]he President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States." Today, presidents broadly define their constitutional authority as commander in chief. But in the nineteenth century, Congress claimed and defended expansive war powers authority. How did Congress define the boundaries between presidential and congressional war powers in the early republic? Did the definition of “commander in chief” change, and if so, when, how, and why did it do so? Based on an original, comprehensive dataset of every congressional reference to the commander-in-chief clause from the ratification of the Constitution through 1917, Dr. Casey B.K. Dominguez analyzes the authority that members of Congress ascribed to the president as commander in chief and the boundaries they put around that authority. In Commander in Chief: Partisanship, Nationalism, and the Reconstruction of Congressional War Powers (University Press of Kansas, 2024) Dominguez shows that for more than a century members of Congress defined the commander in chief's authority narrowly, similar to that of any high-ranking military officer. But in a wave of nationalism during the Spanish-American War, members of Congress began to argue that Congress owed deference to the commander in chief – as a national representative of the military, nation, and flag rather than a military officer. These debates were partisan with members of Congress arguing for broader presidential war powers when the president was from their own party. Scholars often assume that it is the Supreme Court that interprets the Constitution but Dominguez's work shows how all the branches interpret the constitution. She offers particularly keen insights on the use of constitutional stories or scripts about the commander in chief clause. While scholars have assumed that the expansion of presidential war powers happened in the middle of the 20th century, Dominguez's research shows that the dynamical expansion began 50 years earlier. Her work helps readers understand when – and how – the United States shifted many military decisions to the president. Dr. Casey B. K. Dominguez is professor of Political Science and International Relations at the University of San Diego. Her research focuses on the relationships between political parties and interest groups, and on the evolution of Constitutional war powers in the United States.

Send us a textPicture a young child standing before the Concord Minuteman statue, eyes wide with wonder at the stories of self-governance and liberty that echo through American history. This episode invites you on a heartfelt exploration of the ideals that have crafted the nation's identity. Through personal reflections and pivotal moments in history, we touch upon how the American Revolution's spirit of freedom has resonated through various epochs—be it the transformative Emancipation Proclamation of the Civil War era or America's advocacy for liberty during the Spanish-American War. Education emerges as a cornerstone that has shaped communities, blending seamlessly with religious values that advocate for the freedom to worship, highlighting the intertwined nature of faith, education, and patriotism throughout the nation's journey.The conversation deepens as we discuss the indelible relationship between religion and patriotism, underlining the reverence for Christianity and the Bible that is woven into the country's heritage. By drawing upon the sacrifices and leadership of iconic figures like Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Lincoln, and Roosevelt, we celebrate their legacy and emphasize the importance of selflessness in leadership today. True patriotism, we argue, is not about personal gain but a commitment to the nation's welfare, contrasting sharply with those who prioritize self-interest. Through these historical lenses, we urge a renewed embrace of American values, ensuring prosperity and honoring the foundational principles that have long guided the United States.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe
Send us a textWhat does it mean to truly love your country? Journey with us as we unravel the profound essence of patriotism, moving beyond mere symbols and gestures to explore the ideals, freedoms, and principles that form the heart of a nation. Through the allegorical tale of a ship finding unity amidst a storm, we draw insightful parallels to the United States in 1898, a time when the nation discovered newfound unity and purpose during the Spanish-American War. This narrative invites you to reflect on patriotism as more than just an emblematic notion, but as a deep-seated affection for the foundational principles and collective spirit that bind us together, much like the love we hold for our own homes.Patriotism's value transcends the size or material achievements of a country. We explore how true greatness is not measured by vast territories or economic might, but by values, culture, and historical impact. By examining the historical influence of small countries like Greece, Italy, Switzerland, and Palestine, we delve into how their legacies have shaped the world. With this perspective, we challenge you to reconsider what it means to be a patriot and how embracing the core ideals of your country can lead to a deeper, more meaningful connection with the land you call home. Join us in this thoughtful discussion and discover a richer love for your country rooted in its enduring values.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe
592. Today we talk to author Carolyn Morrow Long about two of her books, one on Marie Laveau and the other on Madame LaLaurie. A New Orleans Voudou Priestess: The Legend and Reality of Marie Laveau. "Legendary for an unusual combination of spiritual power, beauty, charisma, showmanship, intimidation, and shrewd business sense, Marie Leveau also was known for her kindness and charity, nursing yellow fever victims and ministering to condemned prisoners, and her devotion to the Roman Catholic Church. In separating verifiable fact from semi-truths and complete fabrication, Carolyn Morrow Long explores the unique social, political, and legal setting in which the lives of Laveau's African and European ancestors became intertwined in nineteenth-century New Orleans." Madame Lalaurie, Mistress of the Haunted House. "A meticulous researcher of New Orleans history, Carolyn Long disentangles the threads of fact and legend that have intertwined over the decades. Was Madame Lalaurie a sadistic abuser? Mentally ill? Or merely the victim of an unfair and sensationalist press? Using carefully documented eyewitness testimony, archival documents, and family letters, Long recounts Lalaurie's life from legal troubles before the fire through the scandal of her exile to France to her death in Paris in 1849."

How did Theodore Roosevelt go from the worst day of his life—with the simultaneous death of his adored wife and beloved mother—to celebration as a national hero on his path to the presidency at the unprecedented age of 41? This astonishing progress displayed reckless, almost suicidal courage on the battlefield and a strange, almost supernatural sense of his own invincibility. Eyewitnesses and close friends who watched his mounted charge up San Juan Hill, leading his colorful, unconventional regiment into seemingly lethal enemy lines to win the decisive battle of the Spanish-American War, saw his success as an open miracle. Concerning his previous day of grief, TR said: "Black Care rarely sits behind a rider whose pace is fast enough." Young Roosevelt illustrated that maxim in his dramatic rise to power.

The ‘mock' battle of Manila took place on 13th August, 1898, when the Spanish Army attempted to save face by staging a low-impact fight with the Americans, handing over the territory of the Philippines without seeming weak. The pseudo engagement aimed for a bloodless resolution, but unintentional shots fired from both sides disrupted the facade. However, the stratagem effectively terminated the Spanish-American war, 106 days after its commencement - and (temporarily) prevented Filipinos from regaining control of their nation. In this episode, The Retrospectors expose the racism underpinning both side's thinking; reveal what Mark Twain thought of U.S. expansionism; and explain why, due to events in Washington, the battle turned out to be entirely unnecessary… Further Reading: • ‘The Spanish-American War in the Philippines and the Battle for Manila' (PBS American Experience): https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/features/macarthur-spanish-american-war-philippines-and-battle-for-manila/ • ‘Struggle for Freedom - By Cecilio D.

A member of the Republican Party, he led a realignment that made Republicans largely dominant in the industrial states and nationwide for decades. He presided over victory in the Spanish–American War of 1898; gained control of Hawaii, Puerto Rico, the Philippines and Cuba; restored prosperity after a deep depression; rejected the inflationary monetary policy of free silver, keeping the nation on the gold standard; and raised protective tariffs. McKinley's presidency saw rapid economic growth. He promoted the 1897 Dingley Tariff to protect manufacturers and factory workers from foreign competition and in 1900 secured the passage of the Gold Standard Act. He hoped to persuade Spain to grant independence to rebellious Cuba without conflict, but when negotiation failed, he requested and signed Congress's declaration of war to begin the Spanish-American War of 1898, in which the United States saw a quick and decisive victory. As part of the peace settlement, Spain turned over to the United States its main overseas colonies of Puerto Rico, Guam and the Philippines while Cuba was promised independen...

Fiorello LaGuardia was one of the twentieth century's most colorful politicians―a 5'2'' ball of energy who led New York as major during the Depression and World War Two, charming the media during press conference and fighting the dirty machine politics of the city. He was also quintessentially American: the son of Italian immigrants, who rose in society through sheer will and chutzpah.La Guardia made an unsuccessful attempt to enlist during the Spanish-American War. Following that, he served in two U.S. consulates in Europe from 1901 to 1906, and later worked as an interpreter at Ellis Island from 1907 to 1910. Strongly disapproving of corrupt Tammany Hall, his charisma and appeal to minority groups led to victories in districts that were traditionally Democratic. From 1923 to 1933, La Guardia gained national prominence in the House of Representatives, aligning himself with reformers and progressives. In the 1933 mayoral race, Franklin Roosevelt saw La Guardia as a potential ally who could collaborate across party lines. From there he took on the New York mayor's office with gusto.Today's guest is Terry Golway, author of “I Never Did Like Politics: How Fiorello La Guardia Became America's Mayor, and Why He Still Matters.”
