The 10th Amendment Wasn’t an Add-On. It Was the Entire Point
The Founders didn’t secede from an empire over taxes or tea. They fought a war against unlimited, centralized power. The 10th Amendment was their answer. Power is not assumed. It must be granted. On this episode, learn about this forgotten foundation – from the revolution to ratification – and what it tells us about how to turn things around today.

Supreme Court Power Grab! How Judges Stole Your Constitution
John Taylor smacked down Chief Justice John Marshall – who followed Alexander Hamilton’s playbook to twist the meaning of words – like the necessary and proper clause – to support a national bank. Taylor called it “construction,” and saw a catastrophe coming. He was no mere critic. He was prophetic.

IMPEACHMENT: The Truth They Never Teach About “High Crimes and Misdemeanors”
The framers built a tool to protect the Republic from serious abuses of public trust. A power much-broader than what virtually anyone teaches today. But Anti-Federalists like Patrick Henry warned that it was nothing more than a “sham.”

Exposed: How Government Became a Legal Crime Syndicate
Bastiat called it “legal plunder.” Spooner said their “sole purpose is power and plunder.” Today, they just call it government.

You Can’t Comply Your Way Out of Tyranny
“A little rebellion now and then is a good thing.” Jefferson didn’t just say it – he meant it, even when he opposed the cause. Because the principle was bigger than the moment: resistance is what keeps government in check. This episode makes the case with hard truth from Jefferson, Spooner, Adams, Locke, and more – showing that liberty survives through backbone, not permission.

Liberty OR Empire: You Can’t Have Both
Every empire follows the same script, but this isn’t the version you’re used to. It’s not about overextension, debt, or even manipulating the money – those are all symptoms. The real disease? Consolidate power, crush liberty, and the rest is history. And now, it’s our turn. This episode is a warning for the ages about the story of empires. Because liberty must die for empires to thrive.
