Episode 320: Faithless Electors Jul 07, 2020

Show notes

Can States mandate how electors vote for the president? The Supreme Court just said yes, and I agree, but like Clarence Thomas, I disagree with the majority opinion. Why? I explain in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.

Episode 319: Trump's Monumental Garden Jul 06, 2020

Show notes

Donald Trump has ordered that the United States government build a "National Garden to American Heroes" complete with new monuments to what he and other neoconservatives consider to be the greatest people in American history, like Christa McAuliffe. Nothing screams American hero like Christa McAuliffe. Not that her death was not a tragic reminder of the danger of space exploration, but Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and John Glenn do not make the list. Stupid. I discuss Trump's latest attempt to satisfy all parties in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.

Episode 318: Secession? Jul 03, 2020

Show notes

F.H. Buckley's book on secession is a welcome and timely addition to the modern conversation on secession. This would have been a forbidden topic just 15 years ago, but with the current madness in American society, Buckley is wondering why and how secession could work in the 21st century. This is think locally, act locally on steroids.

Episode 317: The Slippery Slope of Stupidity Jun 19, 2020

Show notes

Rich Lowry and Tim Kaine are not often lumped together. They should be. The "conservative" editor of National Review and the United States Senator from Virginia are both two idiot peas in a pod. Lowry doesn't think that taking down Confederate monuments or symbols will lead to anything other than a recognition of national greatness American imperialism while Kaine somehow believes Americans invented slavery. Right. These morons just needed an episode dedicated to their stupidity.

Episode 316: With Friends Like These... Jun 18, 2020

Show notes

National Review writer and native Brit Cameron Hilditch thinks Confederate symbols should be erased from American society. Why? Because they are "Un-American." That's right. National Review, a "conservative" publication, thinks getting rid of Confederate symbols would be a good thing because those guys were not really Americans. You can't make up this kind of stupid, but with friends like these, who needs Mother Jones or The Atlantic.

Episode 315: The Third American Revolution Jun 11, 2020

Show notes

Are we in for another revolution in America? The first "revolution" between 1775-1783 didn't change much in American society. The second, 1861-1877, set in motion the third. In fact, this has been one long war without much of a break since 1861. The current pogrom against all things Confederate isn't really about the Confederacy but our "national" culture war. I explain in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.

Episode 314: American Nationalism is a Disease Jun 05, 2020

Show notes

This might sound like something out of the Left-wing anti-Trump playbook, but I have been railing against nationalism longer than Trump's been in office. Nationalism has always been the great antithesis of the American political system, and the twin "crises" of COVID and George Floyd have exposed this, again. I discuss in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.

Episode 313: Nationalization of the Militia Jun 04, 2020

Show notes

Donald Trump has suggested he'll call out the national guard to put down the protests and riots taking place across the United States. Can he legally do this? Short answer: No. But he does have historical precedents that give him cover. I discuss Article IV, Section 4 of the Constitution, Donald Trump, the riots and much more in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.

Episode 312: Where's the Beef? May 15, 2020

Show notes

COVID 19 has created meat shortages in the United States? Why? Because the entire industry is over-regulated and centralized, or so Paul Schwennesen (conslusively) argues. If we were already thinking locally and acting locally, this wouldn't be a big deal, but because Americans now embrace one size fits all policies, expect to ask "Where's the beef? more frequently. I discuss the problem in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.

Episode 311: Open Borders? May 08, 2020

Show notes

Did open borders cause a spike in COVID infections? In the United States, New York was public enemy #1. Most cases across the eastern half of the US (and in some cases the western)were brought from NYC. If the States shut down their borders, even to interstate travel, could this have been prevented? Americans should be talking about "open borders" in general terms. I do in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.
