Civilian supremacy over the military remains inviolate in our history and constitution. But what happens when a civilian Commander in Chief, such as Pres. Washington or Pres. Trump, legally deploy the U.S. military or federalized National Guard on American soil? This story is as old as our democracy. One could even argue that the use of militia to crush rebellion in America was a major contributing factor in the founding of the United States. In this interview, we discuss the history and evolution of the civil-military relations in the United States and draw comparisons to and lessons from other countries.

Bismarck built an empire. His Emperor destroyed it. The German Empire's swift rise to world power status frightened Europe and threatened the balance of power. So Bismark convinced Germany's neighbors and other world powers that while Germany was prosperous and powerful, it was peaceful. Wilhelm II, however, flexed his empire's muscles, frightened his neighbors and insulted other world leaders. The brief history of the German Empire hold lessons for the United Sates (the incumbent superpower) and China (the rising world power). In this interview, we discuss the following:►The term Reich - First Reich, Second Reich and Third Reich. And why this term is no longer used in Germany. ►The year of three emperors ►The term 48ers (not to be confused with the 49ers)►Bismarck: a giant statesman of European history►Wilhelm II: the man who destroyed what Bismarck had meticulously built ►In the 19th century, did Germans call themselves German? ►Why did Bismarck say to build a German state, you need blood and iron? ►How German wars led to the creation of the German Empire? ►Why was the German Empire founded in Paris, and not in Germany? ►How did Darwinism figure into the history of the German Empire? ►How did Wilhelm II make enemies for the German Empire? ►How did Wilhelm II interact with the media?
80% of South Africa's people own only 4% of the land. These are Black South Africans. In contrast, 75% of the land is privately owned by white South Africans, who comprise about 7% of the population. But apartheid ended in 1994. So why hasn't land been more equitably distributed since then? In this interview, we discuss the following: ►How colonial era Christianity ended the fluidity of societal and power relations among Blacks in South Africa. ►How colonial-imposed land boundaries changed South Africa's culture and allegiances. ►Do white South Africans experience higher crime than Black South Africans? ►How English South Africans supported Afrikaners - their former enemies - and lifted them up in society so that together they could maintain white supremacy. ►Why do Indians of South Africa call themselves Black? ►What happened after the end of apartheid to South Africa's economy and race relations? ►Why did some historians claim that South Africa's decade of 1970s was lost to history? ►Why did it take so long for apartheid to end? ►How did corruption become so pervasive in South Africa? ►Is South Africa a failed state?Read History Behind News blog post on South Africa.

Did you know that up to the Partition of India in 1947, Kashmiri Muslims lived in conditions that very much resembled serfdom? Exploitation of Kashmiri Muslims was particularly notable during the Dogra Dynasty, which ruled the princely state of Jammu and Kashmir from 1846 to 1947.Since their partition in 1947, India and Pakistan have fought four wars: in 1947, 1965, 1971 and 1999. Based on research and information, three of these wars were specifically about the Kashmir region. In this interview, I bring historical perspective to conflicts and crises about Kashmir by asking my guest scholar the following questions: ►Is Jammu and Kashmir different than Kashmir?►Who are Kashmiris?►Why did Persian missionaries visit Kashmir?►What happened to Kashmir after the Mughal Empire?►What does it mean that Kashmir was a princely state?►Did the British introduce a more egalitarian system in Kashmir? If so, why?►Why Kashmir was an autonomous region under British rule and until recently in the Republic of India?►Why is Kashmir called the Indian Administered Kashmir?►How did Kashmir become a part of India?►What was the Kashmir massacre that happened in 1947?►How are Kashmiris 'othered' in India?►What is it about Kashmir that makes it different from all other Indian states?►Is Kashmir an integral part of India?►Would my guest scholar be able to freely talk about Kashmir's history in India?

Would this be like comparing apples to oranges? ►What was George Washingtons' presidency like? ►Is studying America's founding period important for history's sake, or does it provide some legal structure for our current constitutional framework? ►If the past truly is a foreign country, i.e., so different than our present, then what values can we derive from studying it? ►What is originalism? ►What is pluralism? ►What are a president's process powers? ►What are president's enumerated powers? ►What are the clear exceptions to the president's Article II powers? ►Do statutes increase presidential power?

Susannah Cahalan is a #1 New York Times bestselling author, journalist, and public speaker. Her first book, Brain on Fire, has sold over a million copies and has been translated into more than twenty languages. Her second book, The Great Pretender, was shortlisted for the Royal Society's 2020 Science Book Prize. Her latest biography The Acid Queen: The Psychedelic Life and Counterculture Rebellion of Rosemary Woodruff Leary, “...chronicles the life of Rosemary Woodruff Leary (1935–2002), a prominent figure in the 1960s psychedelic movement and Timothy Leary's wife from 1967 through 1976.” Kirkus gave THE ACID QUEEN a glowing review, calling it a “well-wrought narrative that brings deserved attention to a lost figure in the counterculture,” and Publishers Weekly called it a “... stranger than fiction story [that offers] a vivid portrait of how flower power cracked up in the '70s.” Susannah Cahalan has been profiled in the New York Times, featured as an answer on Jeopardy!: delivered a TEDx Talk, and appeared as a guest on The Today Show, PBS, BBC's Inside Science, and Fresh Air, among many others.

Is South America becoming great again? That's what some analysts are saying.

In this episode, I talk about the Democrats' latest political faceplant as they rally behind a deported MS-13 gang member, only to get blindsided by a tidal wave of evidence proving his criminal background. From door-slamming diplomatic embarrassments to the media's desperate pivot away from the narrative they built, I walk you through how Trump's team expertly baited the left into yet another trap. --Try High Flavanol Cocoa (Stem Cells & Nitric Oxide): (40% OFF STOREWIDE PROMO FOR 48HR) https://blackforestsupplements.com/TURLEY*The content presented by sponsors may contain affiliate links.

Taxes and wars go hand in hand. And as much as our current partisan politics suggest otherwise, it wasn't a Democratic U.S. president that ushered in the income tax. It was a Republican president - Honest Abe! And later, it was during another Republican president's term that the income tax became permanent - William Taft. The irony of it is that the poor masses and the progressive middle class pushed for the income tax to get the rich to pay their fair share. Now, the poor and the middle American families seem to shoulder most of the income tax burden. In this interview, I discuss the following with my guest scholar: ►British taxes on American colonies - justified or not?►"No Taxation Without Representation"►Shays' Rebellion - America's first uprising against taxes►Hamilton's controversial plan for America's debt ►How the federal government paid for itself all those years before the income tax ►How the Civil War changed tariffs and taxes►Why the U.S. Supreme Court struck down income taxes►Why the masses pushed for an income tax amendment - did we do this to ourselves! ►How WWI and WWII affected tariffs and income taxes ►Capitalism and Correlation between lower taxes and higher economic activity and investment
"Crisis of Historical Subjectivity" - my guest, Dr. Namhee Lee, used this phrase to describe the Korean people's experience of 'failed history' and their collective effort to overcome that past. This is the story of "disguised employees" - South Korea's intellectuals who left high-paying jobs to instead work on the factory floor with the aim of bringing about democratic change.
