One of the hardest truths you can face as an individual is the realization that no one is coming to save you. On the other hand, it's exactly the kind of thing that can motivate us to do the right thing. M.E. Boyd explains how the time has come to nobly save or meanly lose our republic.
Public schools have been hemorrhaging students for the past year and a half. School closures and lockdown policies have definitely taken their toll but the DOJ stepping up to treat parents like potential terrorists hasn't exactly helped either. Kerry McDonald says another massive fall exodus from U.S. public schools is underway and that's a boon for proponents of school choice.
As I've watched the seasons begin to shift from summer to fall/pre-winter, I've had a very strong sense that humanity itself is entering a new and uncertain season.

In spite of all the instability we see around us, there are individuals who give me authentic hope for the future. 3rd generation Nevada rancher Jared Sorenson is one of those people.

Would you have stood up for the Jews as they were being marginalized and persecuted in 1938? The answer to that question can be found in whether or not you are standing up for the unvaccinated today. Paul Rosenberg lays out how official persecution is being normalized and how those would won't stand up for the persecuted today, wouldn't have done it then either.

Would it shock you to consider the possibility that we are being conditioned to fear free speech? Jonathan Turley says politicians want us to believe that they are moving to protect us from unhealthy reading choices.
Shows like mine are there for the benefit of those who have become aware of how we are being systematically manipulated and stripped of our freedoms. With that awareness comes a responsibility to be informed. Art Carden has a thought-provoking essay that asks, can you even be an "informed" citizen?
It's tempting to shrug off the U.S. Dept of Justice mobilizing its resources to make sure parents don't upset school board members or make educational bureaucrats feel unvalidated. But it's a huge red flag for anyone paying attention. C. Bradley Thompson says it's a declaration of war against the rights of parents to oversee their child's education.
With all the political conflict that surrounds us, it's curious that more people don't recognize how political power has become little more than the power to bully others. Kent McManigal spells out how our preferred problem-solver is, by far, the greatest problem creator in existence.
Dr. Shanon Brooks from Monticello College joins me to talk about the Marine Corps Lt. Col. who is currently paying a high price for speaking out about the costly mistakes made in the process of leaving Afghanistan. We also discuss the emerging new economy and why it's so essential to create your own business.
In the grand scheme of things, the revamping of Superman as a bisexual character may not be the gravest threat we face. Even so, it's a good indicator of how we're expected to believe that everything that came before us was wrong. It also makes for a lively discussion with British commentator and Young Voices contributor Connor Tomlinson.
Paul Rosenberg always has a principled and insightful take on current events. His latest column tackles the subject of rules versus righteousness. He points out how simply following rules is not the same thing as choosing to be righteous in our actions. This may be a tough idea for some to contemplate but it's a difference worth understanding.

Getting stranded as the result of a walk-off of pilots and air traffic controllers may be inconvenient for anyone who is trying to travel. But the great Southwest Airlines rebellion is cause for celebration says Ron Paul. I would gladly suffer inconvenience in order to see our mandate-happy overlords' demands thwarted. And I just bought airline tickets last week.
It's getting harder to give our federal overlords the benefit of the doubt. Especially when those at the top of our national government seem determined to punish all dissent against their current power grab. Max Morton spells out how working class Americans are considered a threat to the power of their government.
Paul Rosenberg's essays are a worthwhile read for anyone who is tired of all the bad news. One of my favorites is an essay he penned more than 8 years ago about the beauty and dignity of the productive class. This one will make you appreciate the people whose creativity blesses our lives in ways we often overlook.
While drunken sailors look on in astonishment at our government's trillion dollar out of control spending habits, politicians are floating the idea that the IRS should know about any time more than $600 passes through your hands. Jeff Thomas has a warning about the future of direct taxation.

I'm grateful for friends and fellow heretics like Eric Peters from Eric Peters Autos. Eric stops by each week for a reality-based conversation on current events and to explore how to maintain our freedom while living in clown world.
We've had a solid year and a half to evaluate how the various mandates, lockdowns and other official responses to Covid have panned out. We know what works and what doesn't. Joakim Book notes the security theatre will likely continue since public health officials simply cannot admit they were wrong and will not loosen their grip on power.
We are seeing the very beginnings of a global supply chain breakdown. If you've found yourself wondering why so many container ships are anchored or drifting just offshore instead of being unloaded, Peter C. Earle has a very detailed explanation. The doldrums in which they're stranded aren't the product of nature, they're a consequence of power being mindlessly exercised.

Just how crazy are things getting? It's gonna take me the better part of today's show to illustrate how detached we've become from reality. Here's a good video clip to set the stage: A 16 year old Wyoming high school student is arrested as her school is put on lockdown because she wouldn't mask up.
This program exists, in part, as an alternative to the official propaganda that is beating on our awareness 24/7. Caitlin Johnstone has two excellent articles on the matter that are worth your attention. One discusses how the science of propaganda is still being developed and advanced. The other zeroes in on how many of our problems are based in us-versus-them propaganda.
The ongoing spectacle of empty shelves in our grocery stores is getting harder to ignore. Even if we're starting to get used to it.

Aden Tate has an excellent article on the 6 components of creating an American Free Market Network. This may be one of the most important things you read this week.

Doug Casey has a great take on the rise of phyles and like-minded communities and why you need to find one right now.
The pressure to submit to the the growing medical tyranny is intensifying. The folks who have been wrong about nearly every draconian measure imposed over the past 20 months aren't about to admit they were wrong. Max Borders explains how Frontline Doctors are standing up to authoritarian public health officials and why we owe them a debt of gratitude.
The only folks who have any right to utter the words "because I said so" are parents. And even then, they should use those words sparingly. Judge Andrew Napolitano reminds us that politicans, bureaucrats and other officials don't get to make up rules as they go. The judge offers a brief history of the law of personal privacy and bodily integrity.
Free speech isn't just a good idea, it's essential to a free society. Unfortunately, as you may have noticed, there's a lot of effort underway these days to muzzle free speech in an effort to prevent unapproved ideas from reaching our minds. Larry Alton has the lowdown on how to reclaim our freedom of speech in a culture of censorship.

If you've questioned your sanity at any time during the past 20 months, it's time you learned the truth: the biggest battle being waged right now is the one for your mind. John Whitehead has some timely advice. He says to find freedom from fear, you've got to stop playing the government's mind games.
One of the great things about gigantic, bloated $3.5 trillion spending bills is that you can hide a lot of favors in them for your friends and enablers. Adam Guilette shines a light on how hidden in the latest spending bill is a journalism "tax credit" that will make many members of the media paid agents of the state.
Seems as though racism and climate change are the biggest problems facing humanity. Robert E. Wright has a recommendation to reduce both of them in one step. Take government out of the equation.

Eric Peters from Eric Peters Autos joins us to talk current events viewed through the lens of common sense. His take on luck vs. natural immunity is worth considering.
A recent AP article featured a handful of doctors who say they're getting frustrated with people who question their recommendations. Of course, those recommendations are a mirror image of what government is demanding, so there is that. J.D. Tuccille explains how public health officials blew up their credibility and the rest of us are paying the price.

The peaceful remedy to unjust laws is for a jury to nullify those laws when someone is being prosecuted for breaking them. Kirsten Tynan from the Fully Informed Jury Association has an excellent explanation of what jury nullification is and what it isn't.
Taxing the rich is the path of least resistance for opportunistic politicians. However, as Kent McManigal notes, this practice also penalizes the productive and discourages them from creating value for others.

There's a lot of effort these days to punish and shame the non-compliant, especially when it comes to the Covid vaccine. Brandon Smith makes a strong case for red states to offer sanctuary to those businesses, military and medical personnel who will not comply.
