Alan Dershowitz: "We Are Losing Our Standing in the World"
"You're right. Some of our politics are polar opposites, but I think it's so admirable because we agree on the fruits of the enlightenment of due process and checks and balances the constitution and decency and dialog. I'm really afraid we're losing that. I think please go ahead. If they read my book, get Trump. You will find bases, grounds for agreement. You will find that, you know, this is not a throw Republican pro Trump. It's not a pro Democrat book. It's a pro Alexander Hamilton. James Madison, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson. It's a pro American book. It wants to restore America to its position in the world, which is losing. You know, one of the presidents, I think it was San Salvador. Yesterday wrote a tweet saying, don't you ever dare lecture us about democracy anymore? You're trying to imprison the man who's running for president against the incumbent president and you're telling us about democracy. You know, we are losing our standing in the world as the great Paragon of democracy justice and due process. I'm almost 85 years old, but I'm going to spend the rest of my life fighting for a restoration of due process and constitutionalism. It may be a losing battle, but I'm not giving up. It's a righteous cause. And I'm a partner in that cause, despite our different politics,

"5, four, zero, Marcy. Are you with me? I am. Thanks for calling. You sound a little distant, are you with me? Are you on speaker? I'm on speaker. There you go. Thanks for calling. What's on your mind? I've been lobbying. I'm just state director for Wyoming for the American atheist. I've been lobbying our legislature. And I just needed to talk to normal people for a while. Sit down at the bar. Have a drink. Let's talk. I've got coffee. You can have whatever you want. Marcy. By the way, I'm on the board of directors of American atheists, so you and I have. We have a kinship, you and I are Kindred spirits, I guess, in that way, we have a familial connection. Go ahead. What's going on in Wyoming? Well, like so many other states, there is a full court press to criminalize care for transgender children. Any care and care at all for the ones failed where they wanted to criminalize the parents, but they immediately came back with another one where it was just to ask for the doctors. Since the state who really has trouble hiring enough doctors, attracting enough medical professionals and just driving the crazy. This isn't the only horrible deal. It's happening in my home state. They just introduced a bill that would deny care, they are trying to sell in our public school systems that we are a Christian nation and that all of our founders were Christian. I said online, tell me you know nothing about American history without saying. You know nothing about American history. I mean, on what planet, right? It's so frustrating these history revisionists and dominionists and people accept blindly, like I want to tell them, why don't you go crack open a book? And check their claims against the facts in the history, you might be surprised. And yet because it validates what they already felt, they just lap it up and say, oh yeah, Christian nation. Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, James Madison, John Adams. Benjamin Franklin, they were all devout pulpit pounding Bible believing Christians, and that simply is not the case. Exactly. I wrote a letter to our local newspaper editor that literally the editor regarding the fact that the United States is not a Christian nation. Generated a whole bunch of responses from the public, but the astonishing part was an editorial proving me wrong. Mike, they wrote an entire piece in published it. One of the employees of the paper wrote the piece. The interesting thing is the woman who wrote it is a messianic Jew. And I thought Christian apologetics was bizarre, but when you blend in Jewish stuff with it, it is mind bending. Because somehow she could prove the Trinity, then therefore the United States is a Christian country. Let's say that Jefferson Washington Adams Madison, et cetera, were devout Bible believing Christians. So what? Let's say that their claim was actually true. And that Jefferson didn't take a razor blade and slice out the Supernatural parts of the gospel. Let's tell him, let's say James Madison wasn't a critic of religion or that Franklin didn't go after the Puritans or that pain didn't write the age of reason or the John Adams didn't sign the treaty of Tripoli. Let's say that all that didn't happen and they were all devout believers in their personal lives. They still constructed a founding document that is God free. Yep. Now you got me venting Marcy. You called and you got me started and I just you push that button. Wyoming is like one big waving Trump flag. Yes, yes. My bumper stickers get a lot of dirty look. What's it say? Oh, well, my atheist and very progressive bumper stickers. They just, they glare at me. You've never been vandalized. Nobody I've never, never know. They're actually, I think we'll see more of that because we're having a lot of people move in from out of state. They're calling themselves political refugees. And they're going to be much, much harder to live with. It's interesting as people talk about sex and gender. What I think is so absent specifically from one side is empathy, you know, when you see the people who are attacked for who they are, you see the skyrocketing suicide rates among trans people. You see the vilification and the oppression that dehumanization and you're like, oh, where's your humanity? How could you be this callous and cold against a fellow human being, who is simply trying to be and live in an authentic way. And I don't know. If it's just, they don't want anybody to be different or they need a villain or they see the devil everywhere or all the above makes me crazy. Yeah. And the hearing this morning, they actually were blaming the transgender care for the high suicide rate amongst transgender people. Well, I've heard victim blaming in this context very much. It's because they're in rebellion. They're in rebellion against their bodies and they're in rebellion against God. Therefore, they commit suicide because they just can't live with that rebellion. It's so pathetic. Yeah. Well, I need to get back to watching this. Thank you, thank you, help to talk to somebody that's normal. I hope this has been good therapy. Be safe be good. I'll see you later. Thanks so much. We need community. We need to speak to voices that understand, don't we? I'm that way. I feel very alone sometimes in my home state of Oklahoma. Even most of my friends, and I love them and I'm so thankful for them, but we have pronounced disagreements in a lot of ways and I like to talk about the things that matter to me and yet I find myself in some ways. I'm struck by the fact that I am, I am a minority in that way, and I crave connection. I crave being able to be around people who say, man, I feel ya. Oh my gosh, I've thought that thought. I've had that experience, and I have this concern, and I share all of this. There's a communal aspect that this community has helped me really really scratch that itch. And then, of course, getting into the new year here, we're talking about getting out into the convention circuit.

John Zmirak: 'America Was Founded by Conspiracy Realists'
"The battles of Lexington and Concord, April, 1775, the British were marching to Lexington and Concord to take away the guns. Let's not forget about that. I usually do forget about that, John. So I'm really glad you framed it this way. Every government attempt to ban guns. We should treat as like Lexington and Concord. Every last one. The time to use your guns is on the people trying to come take them away because guess what? That's your last chance. The American colonists knew this. Well, they successfully fought the Revolutionary War. And they set up the Articles of Confederation with the first system of government. It was actually too weak. Then they convened a constitutional convention and they set up our system of government, which people like James Madison craft and Alexander Hamilton, the federalist papers that chronicle how it was worked out. They developed our system of government based on a careful study of where historical regimes had gone wrong, where monarchies had gone wrong, where democracy had gone wrong. And they purposely set up a government that would frustrate itself that would trip over its own feet with the president pulled against the Congress and pulled against the courts. They were a modern terms paranoid about the abuse of power. They set up each branch of government to frustrate the other two so that they would be intention at all times so that nobody could become a dictator.

The Campaign to 'Re-Educate' Jordan Peterson
"I've been talking about cancel culture and James Madison. I now want to talk about the extension of the same cancel principle to the Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson. Not sure if you're familiar with Jordan Peterson. But Jordan Peterson sort of, you may say, emerged on the scene several years ago as a psychologist who was challenging a lot of the entrenched doctrines of the left. And specifically the whole doctrine that there are no such thing as men and women, there's no important distinction between the two sexes, people can be whatever sex that they choose to be. And Jordan Peterson was bringing a wealth of credentials of intellectual sophistication of understanding of human biology, but also understanding of human psychology, to you may say, call BS on this on this whole project. And it became kind of a sensation, not just because he was a critic of the work. But also because a lot of young men who themselves feel a little bit lost. They are a little confused. They hear all the stuff about manliness. And really what the left is doing is presenting a notion of manliness that's kind of unmanly, at least unmanly by traditional historical standards, and it leaves young boys who are growing up to be men a little befuddled. And so it was refreshing for them to hear. And so Jordan Peterson would he became almost kind of a rockstar. He'd go from you'd have these large speaking events, almost like they were put on by live nation or one of these tour groups and you'd have large numbers of young people, mostly male listening to him and kind of holding on to his every insight, then Jordan Peterson developed a kind of a serious illness. He withdrew, but now he's back and so and he's back in a big way on Twitter and he posted recently breaking the Ontario college of psychologists. Has demanded the I submit myself to a mandatory social media communication retraining with their experts for among other things retweeting and he names a guy who's a kind of a classical liberal and criticizing Justin Trudeau and his political allies.

Cancel Culture Comes for James Madison
"It looks like cancel culture is coming for James Madison. Now, we've seen cancel culture come for Thomas Jefferson. Jefferson was a slave owner. And we've seen it come for George Washington, Washington was a slave owner, even though he freed his slaves upon his death. And of course James Madison was a slave owner. But at the same time, these three men were vehemently opposed to the expansion, the consolidation, and most importantly, the legitimation of slavery. I think they understood that slavery had become and was even in some of their own lives as stable feature. But the point is that they wanted to move away from that. And they wanted to create a constitution and a society that was that would be dedicated to antislavery principles. Now those principles might take some time to play out. But this is the kind of dual side of Washington Jefferson and Madison. Now, what's interesting about the cancel culture with regard to Madison is the way in which it operates. Sometimes cancel culture operates from the outside. So take a typical example of a university that, for example, puts up a sculpture to George Washington and then there is a movement of dissent that comes from the media or from some activists who say, oh, you need to take the sculpture down and so cancel culture operates by exercising and external pressure or influence on what an institution does. What's happening in the case of Madison very interestingly is it appears that the cancellation is coming by coming from the inside.

Charlie Kirk on the Potential Bio-Labs in Ukraine
"Charlie, you're a friend. I want to talk to you about everything, but let's talk about something that I normally wouldn't talk about on this program, like bio labs. There are people listening to this program. Today's Monday who they haven't drilled down into this world. Can you sum it up and explain? Yeah, we did a whole hour on this and the short answer is we don't know the full extent of what is true and what is not. Here's what we do know is that Victoria Nuland did an entire Senate testimony where she said that there are biological laboratories in Ukraine and there really worried about them falling into the hands of the Russians. Okay, now what is biological laboratory? It could be anything. It could be a place where you develop biochemical weapons. It could be a place where you do gain of function research where you develop Chinese Corona type virus. In Ukraine. Potentially, we don't know. So then the State Department responds after Victoria Nuland kind of screws up this entire testimony. Can I guess? They said, absolutely not. This is false information. Close. Yeah, basically they said it's Russian propaganda. And they said, I'll get to that in a second. They think the constitution, the United States Constitution is Russian propaganda. Yeah, I mean, look, I don't think they'll stay had a big impact on James Madison. She wasn't alive yet, but anyway, so there are some good Russian Russian literature, mostly about depression and surviving imminent death. That's actually the great approach. That's great. The great contribution. But actually, look, when you say, when you say no kidding, okay? Because you live in this world, so it doesn't blow your mind the way it blows my mind. I haven't been doing satire. The idea that they would say that? Well, let me get to the whole, let me complete it really quick. There's a lot of details. So she says it, State Department says, okay, we admit there were Soviet era relics like they were Soviet era labs that used to exist and the Russians want to get their hands on them. So that doesn't make a lot of sense because no one was really worried about Chernobyl. Being taken over because when you say Soviet era, that is 30 years ago. Well, meaning that they're not denying that they're there, they're just saying that the Americans have no involvement. They're not of any geopolitical significance. Then you go to the Russian side of this, which the Russians are known liars are government is also known for lying, so take whatever it's worth. The head of their foreign minister comes out and says, we have come across active biochemical laboratories that the United States have been funding and have been involved in. Now, we would probably scoff at this if we didn't also have the last two years of experience. I was going to say of the Wuhan institute of virology and the National Institute of health and the fact that Anthony Fauci has now gone into the witness protection program. The moment that Vladimir Putin invades Ukraine, it's like Fauci has gone missing is he worried that there's going to be a revelation here? What were these laboratories doing innocent enough type of biochemical research, which I don't think can be done very innocently? Or was this another kind of a Petri dish, no pun intended of our State Department trying to play God and the farthest reaches of the corner of the world and was there gain of function research being done was Vladimir Putin worried that this could have made a pathogen that would then escape into Russia. These are all very valid questions. Our entire national security apparatus doesn't want us to ask these questions. Because they call it Russian

Elon Musk: ‘Government Is Simply the Biggest Corporation, With the Monopoly on Violence’
"297 billion dollars. That is Elon Musk's net worth. Can you believe that? I mean, it just seems like a couple years ago. It was like 50 billion. Before I remember when Elon Musk is net worth was like $10 billion. Elon Musk is worth nearly 300 $1 billion. He is the world's wealthiest man. And Elon Musk is one of the few people that you could call in the ruling class that is red pilling people by the millions. Do you notice the activist press though doesn't really cover everything Elon says, but it's okay. He's so rich. He's so big. I just want to say Elon, if you're listening to this, please go buy all the media companies and make them less corrupt. You're worth $300 billion. You could do it. Or go start your own honestly. Let's go to cut 43. Elon Musk was asked about the vaccine. And said this, play cut 43. It does not make sense to take the job of capital allocation away from people who have demonstrated great skill in capital allocation and give it to an entity that has demonstrated very core skill in capital allocation, which is the government. You can think of the government essentially as a corporation in the limits. The government is simply the biggest corporation with the monopoly on violence. And where you have no recourse. I want to reemphasize what he just said. That is one of the most red pilled statements I have heard. From anyone, with a net worth over a $100 billion, the government is simply a big corporation with a monopoly on violences from a Wall Street Journal interview. And they have no recourse. Elon Musk has just articulated one of the core beliefs of the founding fathers better than anyone that I've seen in recent memory, the government has monopoly on violence and right now we do not have a check and balance against them.

The Time Has Come to Reclaim the American Republic
"The time has come to reclaim what is ours. As I write in American Marxism. What is ours, the American Republic from those who seek to destroy it. If we expect others to rescue our nation for us, as we go about our daily lives as mere observers to what is transpiring Or close our eyes and ears to current events. We will lose the struggle and yes, it's a struggle. We've allowed the American Marxists to define who we are as a people. They d famous land. Our ancestors in history and trash have founding documents and principles. They're mostly reprobates who hate the country. And have contributed nothing to its betterment. Fact they live off the sweat and toil of others. You While they pursue a destructive and diabolical course for our nation. Undermining its sabotaging virtually every institution in our society. The ideology and worldview are based on the arguments and beliefs of a man Karl Marx, whose writings are responsible for the enslavement. Impoverishment, torture and death of untold millions. This is a hard fact. Despite the predictable protest stations from some in our society who embrace an advanced Marxism score ideas. But attempted disassociate themselves from responsibility for its inevitable outcomes. These are the useful idiots who occupy influential and leadership positions of the Democratic Party, media, academia, culture and so forth. But we must take solace and find strength in the sacrifice and bravery of our early revolutionaries. Joseph Warren Samuel Adams. John Hancock, Paul Revere, Tom Paine. To name just a few. And become energized and inspired by the wisdom and genius of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson. John Adams, James Madison.

It's already in the draft constitution. The south is not happy because they know where they suspect that those darn freedom loving northerners would not help them put down a slave rebellion if they were called upon to do so right. Oh yeah okay they were. They were afraid of that. Were afraid of that. So so where are we. So what what. What is what is the. What is the twist here what happens. And so what happens is is that george mason starts pounding on the issue of having a bill of rights of put in the constitution these amendments that could curtail the power of the federal government and that would protect basically the militia. And so when you think about and so. And they were very clear that if they didn't get that that what they would do is that they would push really hard for a new constitutional convention and what madison was afraid of. Is that this would be pandora's box and it would hurdle the united states right back to the unworkable years of the articles of confederation. And so he's wants to make sure that he's got this bill of rights there in what he knows from the battles over the in the constitutional convention itself was that the south will play some serious hardball with the the being of the united states with the foundation of the united states. The existence of he wasn't so wrong to be afraid of that. I mean a few years one hundred years later right right to be worried. He was wrong to me worry at all. Mit smelled it. Held it So i mean this was they. They when they wanted to get the three fisk law in order to get representation in government because the south was afraid that it didn't have enough people when it came to the house of representatives. Were out the number breath that that they didn't have enough people. They would always be outvoted in federal in the federal system as so they demand its first they demanded lord helped me. They demanded that the enslave be counted on a full equality with whites which led l. bridge jerry to say. Excuse me i thought you said they were property so so if they're full equality with whites their citizens right and they can vote. Why did you give them the right to vote. And they're like no that's not what we saying and and and then another delegate said excuse me so then you count them for your state representation right now. If you don't count for the state how on earth you going account for the federal and they said let me tell you what we don't get this. We don't at least get three fifths. We walk we walk. Madison was use to the hard ball at the south with clay and so win George mason was like patrick henry who hated james madison from the depths and the breadth in the heights that his social reach hated him. Some james madison and madison knew it. He was like they will scuttle the united states of america. They will call up a new constitutional convention. I've got to get this bill of rights through the first congress against it ratified and and so madison goes up to that first congress. And he's drafting these amendments because they're pouring in from all of the different state. He's he's he's dissing them and when you think about them. We ended up with the freedom of speech. Freedom of the press the right to not have a state sponsored religion the right not to be illegally searched and seized the right to a speedy and fair trial the right not to have cruel and unusual punishment the right to a well regulated militia. Weird when he put it that way carol for the security of a free state what yeah is.

What Did James Madison Write About Property Rights?
"James Madison's writing about property rights. Very important. I put it in one of my books. Just just take a few minutes and listen just a few minutes Saturday evening. Property. This term, and its particular application means that Dominion which one man claims and exercises over the external things of the world. An exclusion of every other individual. And it's larger in Justin, meaning it embraces everything to which a man may attach a value and have a right. Which leaves to everyone else, the like advantage. In the former sense a man's land. Our merchandise ceremony is called his property. In the latter, since a man has a property in his opinions. And the free communication of them. In his opinions and the free communication of them. He has a property of peculiar value in his religious opinions and in the profession and practice dictated by them. Here's a property very dear to him in the safety and liberty of his person. The safety and liberty of his person. He has an equal property in the free use of his faculties and free choice of objectives on which to employ them. In a word. A man is said to have a right to his property. He may be equally said to have a property in his rights. Where an excess of power prevails. Property of no sort is duly respected. We've talked about the Supreme Court decision and how Joe Biden rejects. The right of people to own. Property because They're dictating that you can't actually use your property. For rental because you don't get any rental payments.

"It's a high bar to cross but that's the point for something to become part of the constitution. It needs to have overwhelming support. If you remember back to my episode. On unratified amendments there are a few amendments that have been stuck in limbo. They were approved by congress but they were never approved by the states. What we call the twenty seven. Th amendment was once an unratified amendment from the time it was passed by congress to the time it was ratified by the last state. Took a whopping two hundred and four years. How in the world did this amendment takes along the pass and what eventually revived it. From the dead. Believe it or not. Congressional payment was actually part of a collection of twelve amendments. Which we today call the bill of rights only ten of the twelve amendments originally passed back in the eighteenth century. Actually if you want to get technical. James madison had originally come up with twenty amendments which was then whittled down to seventeen when it was debated in the house and the senate brought it down to twelve which were approved by congress and just in case. You're wondering that twelfth amendment which was never ratified dealt with congressional apportionment. It's probably a good thing that it was never ratified because it just wouldn't work with the country with three hundred thirty million people also that unratified amendment was originally stated to be the first amendment of the original list of twelve. The congressional payment came very close to passing when it was first released when congress sent the twelve amendments to the states on september. Twenty four th seventeen eighty-nine the congressional pay amendment was listed second. Four states ratified congressional. Pay amendment rather quickly maryland south carolina north carolina and delaware. Then vermont joined the union in seventeen ninety one and they ratified it. Later in the year followed by. Virginia kentucky joined the union in seventeen ninety two and they ratified it within a month of becoming a state. And this is where it stood for eighty one years nine states had ratified the amendment but the number of states required for passage grew as more states were admitted to the union in eighteen. Seventy three ohio approved the amendment in protest of the salary. Grabac which double the salary of the president and supreme court justices likewise one hundred years later in nineteen seventy eight wyoming approved the amendment in protest of a congressional pay raise and this is where things stood in nineteen eighty two.

"The small body of national troops which has been judged necessary in time of peace is effectively kept up badly paid infected with local prejudices and supported by irregular and disproportionate contributions to the treasury. The impossibility of maintaining order and dispensing justice among the sovereign subjects produced the experiment of dividing the empire into nine or ten circles or districts of giving them an interior organization and of charging them with the military execution of the laws against delinquent or condemnations members. This experiment has only served to demonstrate more fully the radical vice of the constitution each circle is the miniature picture of the deformities of this political monster. They either failed to execute their commissions or they do it with all the devastation and carnage of civil war. Sometimes whole circles are defaulters and then they increase the mischief which they were instituted to remedy we may form some judgment of this scheme of military coercion from a sample given by through on us. In done of of free and imperial city of the circle of swabia the abbaye descent. Qua- enjoyed certain immunities which had been reserved to him in the exercise of days on some public occasions. Outrages were committed on him by the people of the city. The consequence was that the city was put under the ban of the empire. And the duke of bavaria. Though director of another circle obtained an appointment to enforce it. He soon appeared before the city with a core of ten thousand troops and finding it a fit occasion as he had secretly intended from the beginning to revive an antiquated claim on the pretext that his ancestors had suffered the place to be dismembered from his territory. He took possession of it in his own name disarmed and punished inhabitants and ria next the city to his domains. It may be asked. Perhaps what has so long kept disjointed machine from falling entirely to pieces. the answer is obvious. The weakness of most of the members who are unwilling to expose themselves to the mercy of foreign powers the weakness of most of the principal members compared with the formidable powers all around them the vast weight and influence which the emperor derives from his separate and hereditary dominions and the interest he feels and preserving a system with which his family pride is connected and which constitutes him the first prince in europe. These causes support a feeble and precarious union whilst the repellent quality incident to the nature of sovereignty and which time can actually strengthens prevents any reform. Whatever founded on a proper consolidation. Nor is it to be imagined. If this obstacle could be surmounted that the neighbouring powers would suffer a revolution to take plays which would give to the empire the force and preeminence to which it is entitled foreign nations have long considered themselves as interested in the changes made by events in this constitution and have on. Various occasions betrayed their policy of perpetuating. It's anarchy and weakness if more direct examples are wanting poland as a government over local sovereigns might not improperly be taken notice of nor could any proof more striking be given of the calamities flowing from such institutions.

"Such a parade of constitutional powers in the representatives and head of this confederacy. The natural supposition would be that it must form an exception to the general character which belongs to its kindred systems nothing could be further from the reality. The fundamental principle on which it rests that the empire is a community of sovereigns that diet is a representation of sovereigns and that the laws are addressed to sovereigns renders the empire. A nerveless body incapable of regulating. Its own members in secure against external dangers and agitated with unceasing fermentation 's in. Its own bowels. The history of germany is a history of wars between the emperor and the princes and states of wars among the princes and states themselves off the licentious -ness of the strong and the oppression of the week.

The emperor himself was put to flight and very near being made prisoner. By the elector of saxony the late king of prussia was more than once pitted against his imperial sovereign and commonly proved. Overmach for him. Controversies and wars among the members themselves have been so common that the german animals are crowded with the bloody pages which describe them previous to the peace of westphalia. Chairman was desolated by a war of thirty years in which the emperor with one half of the empire was on one side and sweden with the other half on the opposite side piece was at length negotiated and dictated by foreign powers and the articles of it to which foreign powers or parties made a fundamental part of the germanic constitution if the nation happens on any emergency to beat more united by the necessity of self defense.

I was sort of like poked with a sharp stick to read this. It came up me and two separate angles. I finally said Okay, I'll read it. It's the 30 tyrants. The reason I said that is, it's really a long In fact, I made a kind of a smart ass comment. What was said to me originally got to any words, but I put it out and I started reading it like a book. And this is amazing This this should be being read in school. If you're schoolteacher. Just be ready this kids because it's what's happening right now. They should learn about the 30 tyrants. And they should learn about why we're in the midst of the 30 tyrants of our own right now. So here's Trump trying to say that we gotta move away from China. Let's bring manufacturing back to America. Let's put tariffs on the Chinese because they've been scoring us right and left for 50 years on, Let's let's let's take it back. The China class rises up and says no, We're making too much money at this. We don't want to give it up. Give a damn about America. We won't say that publicly, but we don't care. This is global. Now. What's wrong with the nation? State is dead. Get with the program. We're making too much money anyway. That's the mindset of the oligarchs. No. And because it was true, the China was the source of China's classes. Power. The Novell China classes power that trying to think of the China class as the Jeb Bush is. They Joe Biden's This is the China class. The Bill Clinton's So the nova corner virus coming out of Wu Han became the platform for its coup de Gras, so Americans became prey to an anti democratic elite that used the coronavirus did Demoralize them.

Impeach someone after they're out of office. I was reading over the weekend that actually that's what impeachment used to be as imported from the British at the time of the founding of this country. The founders specifically James Madison. And Alexander Hamilton. Debated that it was that impeachment shouldn't just be for those who are who have left office that impeachment should also be used against people who were presently in office. Which you know today. I mean, we only think of it as being for those who are presently in office. But that was a debate at the time and that was like it's going to the Federalist Papers. That's Z. Quite infected. They brought the Thomas Jefferson was impeached. In Virginia after he was the governor of Virginia. I don't think he was found guilty, but he was impeached long after he was out of office. So, Yeah, There's plenty of precedent for the fact that In fact, that's what impeachment one originally imported from the British. That's what it originally wasps for people who were out of office.

"Most important reason convention has no power to do anything. Except make suggestions and I don't know about you learn, but never in my entire life Have I thought, Oh my God. People are going to make suggestions to me. I can't let that happen. It's so scary, but let's literally never happened. People meet. They make suggestions, and it takes 38 states to ratify anything that comes out of it. And so I want you to think about how high the bar's that's the highest bar in anything in the entirety of American politics. There's nothing else that requires three quarters in the states to accept it before it actually happens, and I want to flip that math on its head. If you're conservative like me or libertarian, and you're worried about things like, Oh, they're going to do away with the Second Amendment. I would say it takes only 13 states to stop anything that we might not like and to be more realistic. It takes one house. In each of the most conservative of 13 states in America. Really? It takes only one committee chairman in one house in each of the most conservative 13 states in America. And if you understand how procedure works in legislatures, they don't have to take up this amendment. They could just ignore it, and then it's not ratified. That's the easiest thing for a Legislature to do. Just don't talk about it so Well, specifically. And this important the second Amendment there 24 states where you can actually carry a gun in the state Legislature. 15 of them. Allow citizens to just walk into the Legislature carrying a fireman sit in the gallery. Does anybody really believe that in those states you could proposed and passed ratify an amendment to take away your firearms from you? I mean, if you believe that, and you go into one of those states, and you suggest it I've been in all of them. I would say you ought to be carrying a firearm problem. You're probably gonna get chased out my arms people. So So to that end Mark Meckler were talking about the, um Let's just be clear. This is this is the way it's the mechanism that the founders built into our system through Article five of the Constitution where we the people Through our state legislatures can can take back the conversation from Washington, D. C. So we can have a conversation about where we're going as a country and what we can fix out of the country. Get somebody you look at that great map of the United States of America that shows all the red counties versus the blue counties, let alone the red states versus the blue states. And there are so many people in this country who feel like they are in no way represented by the power structure of Washington, D. C. Well, this is how all those Red counties fight back, right? Absolutely. And look, this is I know there are a lot of people are in a revolutionary mood right now. And I think they're right. I understand that. I empathize with that. And I think we need a revolution. We need a peaceful revolution. And this is a peaceful revolution. Imagine we actually have the power we, the people, all those red counties that you see, we have the power to put our hands. Around the throat of Washington, D. C. Collectively speaking and to shove it back in the original constitutional box. I think that's pretty radical. And I think so That's what the times call for today and as usual, the answer always lies in the Constitution and the process, And that's so critically important. So so, to that end, if if Mark Meckler were the James Madison of this new convention, this Article five convention What would the priority be? Get give people an understanding of what We could actually change here or what we could, you know, re instill in our founding document in the Constitution to immediately show progress in Washington, D C and changed the way business is done in our federal government. Yeah, And I would say, you know if I had to take a roll on probably more like Sam Adams because I don't think I'm anywhere near smartest Madison, but Adam Sam Adams had he sort of had a connection with the American people. He was in there for the American Revolution. He understood what people really wanted. And here's some things that we can do that. I think most people just want number one. We can post term limits on Washington, D C. And that's not just Congress. This is important. It's also the bureaucrats. The people we refer to as the deep state. They're the deep state because they're there for 30 years or 40 years in Washington, D C and we can limit their terms in D. C can limit Congress's terms, We can limit the terms of federal court judges, including the Supreme Court. I think all of those things are vitally important. Number two. We can impose fiscal restraints in Washington, D. C. That includes a balanced budget amendment supported by about 80% of the American public, But I think that has to be coupled with Taxation caps and spending caps and importantly in limiting the federal government's power to impose unfunded mandates on the states where we need to stop the federal government from forcing the states to do things and then finally, in my opinion, most importantly, we can limit the scope the power in the jurisdiction of the federal government. I'll give you specific examples The majority of Americans don't like Don't trust And don't want the Department of Education and we should do away with it. That money should never leave the states. It should stay in the states. The states should decide how to educate their own people, and that would extend by the way to things like the EPA. The EPA should have. No, it shouldn't exist at the federal of every state does its own environmental protection. That's the way it was intended to be original. That's the way it should be now, and frankly, there's a lot of different things like this. The Department of Agriculture that the I said the e P A. The FDA All these alphabet soup of organizations or administrative agencies should be given back to the states and the states should govern themselves and govern themselves differently as we originally intended to do. So mark as if people are listening. You know people, there's no such thing as local radio any more people could be and are listening to this nationwide right now, if they're in, you know, either in the state of Maryland, where it seems, you know, like a pipe dream or California or in in New York or Illinois. They might. Then we'll never get something like this past For our state, our state will never sign onto an Article five convention. They can still work on something like this right? They can still participate in this process and help Convention of States project in those states where this is a real possibility. You know, it's so interesting because I was gonna call last night with our leadership from all over the country and the states..
Real Talk with Dana | Nutrition, Health
Interview With Kaely McDevitt
"Haley thank you so much for coming on the podcast today. I'd love to get started. If you could talk about your journey to become a dietitian and then how your philosophy towards nutrition and working with clients has changed over the years to where it is now for sure and thanks so much for having me then. I've been excited about this for a couple of weeks. So I get my journey started back in undergrad and we just recently found out at least you live in DC now. I don't know if that's where you started but I was around that area at James Madison University and I always was interested. In fact, I was an athlete growing up in high school. I wasn't an athlete in college, but I was always interested in how different foods made me, you know feel a certain way during games and I had what felt like a like a ritual before my games with like a smoothie that I would make but really it was just like Common Sense Sports Nutrition that made it work. So I was undecided in undergrad and I was spending a lot of money. I'm reading nutrition research for myself. And then I realized like well, there is a career option in this direction. I might as well make use of what I've you know spending all of my time doing so I started researching nutrition. I got into the dietetics program there and when it started out, you know, I was very much trying to learn about nutrition for myself because I couldn't quite figure out how to feed myself correctly. I was just into college and I just realized like I didn't know what to do. I might eating dining hall food. I'm not an athlete for the first time in my life. How does that like, how does somebody exercise and they're not an athlete how did they feel themselves? So I'm honestly just looking for information for myself and trying to find the quote unquote perfect diet and I was meticulously following everything. I was being taught in school. I was like looking for a low fat labels. I was eating Special K cereal like it was my job and I was logging so much time on ellipticals and getting into distance running and I really watch dog. A health decline as I was doing all of these things, and I was doing them really well to like I was typing with how I was approaching my nutrition and this carried on into my internship off a whole lot of stress in that year. I'm sure as you remember a lot of late nights little sleep lots of work. I was in a master's program at the same time, too, and my health health was really getting worse, and I couldn't find information that I needed cuz a lot of my symptoms were in the hormone realm, which I'm sure we'll get into and I just felt like really alone and honestly kind of like a fraud because divorce quote unquote a nutrition professional and I was following the rules and I I wasn't feeling good. And so I ended up spending a lot more of my free time diving into the Women's Health specific stuff and realizing maybe I am doing this wrong. Maybe I'm approaching this from a completely incorrect standpoint and instead of trying to find the perfect diet. I really just needed to support my body and listen to the signs and symptoms that were popping up dead. And so as I was getting my Rd credential and transitioning into into the workforce, I had this big change of philosophy and approach and it was really sick around. How do we listen to the signs at their bodies giving us? How do we interpret those things at the body sending? How do we use food and movement and lifestyle to actually support and nourish ourselves instead of like meticulously counting and restricting and using food as a manipulation versus using food is nourishment. So really like my own personal health evolved right along side that approach and ended up where I am today in private practice helping women navigate hormone and digestive issues that are typically at least in some part caused by not really understanding that connection between food wage supporting your body, but it's so true. I mean, I think a big problem and one of the reasons why so many people seek out these diets in addition to weight loss, right which is what we've all been told. Oh you need to birth In order to be healthy, right but it's like we don't know what to do in order to be healthy. And so we seek out this external information and then lose the ability to stay in tune with those internal cues from we're we're kids and we know how to eat intuitively and in line with our bodies and like don't demonize cravings and everything until you get to the like bombardment of everything that you experience. I mean really starting in like Elementary School at this point for us. It might have been like a little bit later cuz we didn't have that much social media, right but it gets to the point where you just don't know how to interpret the signals of your body anymore. So like of course people are looking for this external information. It's not like you've been doing something wrong dear listeners, right? Like it's of course you're going that way and so now it's time to like you said instead of trying to like manipulate your food. It's trying to learn what your body is telling you so you can learn how to nourish it and help it get better by helping it along. And just eliminating everything and meticulously counting calories. Yeah, exactly. I think you hit the nail on the head with it's just a big disconnect. Like we basically are are taught to ignore those signs and symptoms. The body is giving us and the fact that our body does a great job at regulating what it needs and informing us of what it needs and somewhere in that mix which probably Elementary School now between social media and the way things are marketed, we just lose that ability and we're taught that that's actually not what we should be following.
