Ep. 660: Cornell Takes Down Lincoln Jun 30, 2022

Show notes

Cancel culture has come for Abraham Lincoln, and the Lincolnits are ticked. Who didn't predict this? Of course, Lincoln should be in the same category as Confederate leaders. He wasn't any less racist. It could be argued he was MORE racist than his Southern counterparts. Cornell University took down a bust of Honest Abe after someone complained about it. I discuss the implications on this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.

Ep. 659: The Pathway to Reparations? Jun 29, 2022

Show notes

A Massachusetts court ruled that Harvard can be sued by a descendant of two slaves for emotional distress. The reason? Harvard possesses two nineteenth century images of this person's ancestors and either charges to use them or displays them at academic conferences or on book covers. I explain why this is the pathway to reparations.

Ep. 658: An "Insult to the 9th Amendment"? Jun 28, 2022

Show notes

Damon Root at Reason.com argues the Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade is an "insult to the 9th Amendment." Is this true? No, and his reasoning is as bad as the constitutional arguments behind Roe v. Wade.

Ep. 657: Dobbs and New York Rifle Jun 27, 2022

Show notes

The Supreme Court rattled America last week, and it call centered on the 14th Amendment. This was to be expected. I discuss what the Court got right and wrong on both the Dobbs and New York State Rifle and Pistol decisions. Incorporation AND substantive due process are dangerous.

Ep. 656: The Real Lincoln Jun 23, 2022

Show notes

Did Lincoln "free the slaves"? No. Did Lincoln favor several Constitutional amendments that would have made slavery either 1) permanent in the South or 2) allowed for slavery to exist until 1900? Yes. Did Lincoln reject compromise and push for war? Yes. This is the real Lincoln.

Ep. 655: Wall of Separation? Jun 22, 2022

Show notes

According to Justice Sonia Sotomayor, "Today, the court leads us to a place where separation of church and state becomes a constitutional violation." This is antithetical to what the "Framers" of the Constitution intended, she argues. I take on this latest ahistorical nonsense from the SCOTUS.

Ep. 654: Progressives Hate the Texas GOP Jun 21, 2022

Show notes

If you needed another reason to "think locally and act locally," the Texas GOP Platform should be enough. It's pretty good, and part of it was driven by a show listener. This is clear evidence that you can have an impact at the local and State level if you get involved. I also take apart the progressive arguments against Texas secession, so buckle up.

Ep. 653: Joe Biden vs. Jimmy Carter Jun 20, 2022

Show notes

Is Joe Biden just Jimmy Carter 2.0 as Ted Cruz suggested? Biden could only wish for such lofty praise. In fact, Biden is far worse than the supposedly worst president in American history.

Ep. 652: National Conservatism: A Statement of Principles Jun 16, 2022

Show notes

The Edmund Burke Foundation has released their "National Conservatism Statement of Principles." While I agree with most of what they advance, their reliance on "nationalism" undermines the entire project. I explain on this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.

Ep. 651: What Obama Means by "Democracy" Jun 15, 2022

Show notes

The Left likes to throw around the word "democracy," but what do they mean when they say it? It isn't what you think, at least according to Tom Piatak at Chronicles Magazine. I agree.
