Nullification Confusion? Come Here For Help.
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - The process of Nullification is gaining steam, which should make you and me excited, right? But in this case the process of Nullification is being explained incorrectly to people in a poll. In the poll, people are being told that Nullification is simply a state being able to invalidate any federal law that they don't agree with. Well that's not in the spirit of Nullification, we made a compact with the ….Continue
John Taylor On Taxes - Once They Start, They Never Stop
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – The citizens of this country are just as stupid as we can be, and that includes our forefathers who are just as lazy and apathetic as we could be. All the powers that we have granted that we refuse to reclaim are just mindboggling. The tyranny that could be inveighed on our heads is just staggering. Check out today’s transcript for the rest…….Continue
Nullification Illegal? Nah, It's the RIGHT of the State.
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - Many of the liberals out there will tell you that Nullification is illegal, in fact Lincoln himself supposedly outlawed it, but that's not possible. Nullification and interposition are the rights and the duty of the states when the Federal (National) Government gets out of hand. Just watch and listen to today's Founders TV to learn more from Mike as he discusses Donald Livingston's testimony on the subject, and be sure and pick up ….Continue

Definition of [r]epublicanism From Thomas Jefferson Letter to John Taylor of Caroline
Mandeville, LA - By Mike Church -"We are all [r]epublicans now." This is the Newsweek Magazine cover I hope to see someday but first we will need to educate many millions on just what [r]epublicanism is, why their Founding Parents said it was the best form of government and how they defined it. In this letter to John Taylor, Thomas Jefferson explains [r]epublicanism as he understands and promotes it. It is also enjoyable to read Jefferson's delight in Taylor's "pulverizing" ….Continue

John Taylor Explains Our Corruptions; Mike Explains Why Living in the U.S. Is NOT Living Free
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - Taylor continues to insist that if you let just a little tyranny into the process so that you can control it, you are ultimately controlled by it. Just imagine if he could witness what we see today, and imagine what his thought would be. “You boys have to do what with what?” Don’t kid yourselves with the idea that you are free because you’re not, none of us are, not as long as that hulking menace that sits on the banks of that….Continue
John Taylor of Caroline - Debts Are Unnecessary to a Free People
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - What Taylor is saying is that you should only have a tariff because you have a couple duties that the general government has to discharge. You should only have the tariff so that you can raise money to do that. You should not use the tariff to enrich anyone. You should not use the tariff as a tool to try to guide commerce. Commerce will guide itself. The genius and the brilliance of John Taylor of Caroline in the founding generation….Continue
ObamaCare is Being Nullified by Governors Refusing to Open Exchanges
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Audio and Transcript - If the Feds cannot implement a plan to make use of our medical services, if they cannot implement a plan to take over and micromanage and manage our healthcare services, medical services, the medical services industry for all of us, what makes anyone think they can take over and manage our consumption of drugs for 314 million people? What makes you think they can take over and manage the administration of how we generate energ….Continue
Abel Upshur: States Are In Charge of Feds SCOTUS Hearing; Marriage Case is an Outcry
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - Brion McClanahan has an essay that is posted at The American Conservative Magazine today. In his essay “Is Secession Legal,” at one point in here, he gets to a great historical document that has not even been introduced on this show. It is Abel Upshur’s A Brief Enquiry into the True Nature and Character of Our Federal Government. Upshur wrote this in response to the lunatic Supreme Court Justice Joseph Story. The fact that thi….Continue
Albert J Nock - republicanism and Scaling Down to End Tyranny
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - This piece by Albert J. Nock comes in handy, “What America Can Learn from Kutusov.” This was published in 1936, so we’re going to hop in the King Dude’s wayback machine and go back a little bit in time. I believe that Nock’s take on this and take on our general affliction is inspirational. It ties in nicely and neatly with [r]epublicanism, which is what I encourage people to practice, because that’s what your founders a….Continue
It Didn't Take 200 Years To Go This Far Off Course
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - Well, I don’t think it took 200 years to get this far screwed. There is something to be said for someone (hint, hint) writing and producing a movie that has as its feature that Patrick Henry and George Mason were successful in defeating the ratification of the Constitution in Virginia, which would have defeated ratification in New York, and probably would have defeated ratification in toto. What would have happened? Then the three-….Continue
My Liberty Should Not Be On Your Ballot
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Audio and Transcript - We are micromanaged and governmentalized in a corrupt fashion just like they are in European countries that we so love to decry, just as they are in Canada as we so love to decry. Are there differences? Yes. Are there bigger tyrannies in Europe than there are here? I’m sure there are. Are there bigger tyrannies against civil liberties than there are here in Europe? I guarantee you there are….Continue
Debbie Schlussel Reviews "What Lincoln Killed"
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - Here's a quote from Debbie's review, read the rest in today's transcript: "It was interesting. To me, that’s the point of something like this, to make people think, and also to educate them. I always learn a lot when I listen to and/or watch your historical projects. You really are a scholar of these things. They don’t teach this stuff. Sure, I learned about the Supremacy Clause, I learned that a lo….Continue
No Need For Flat Taxes or Excise Taxes, John Taylor Preferred Duties and Imposts
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - The preferable way to raise revenues, and this makes sure that it is totally equally apportioned among all the people of the several states, is to tax only, to do duties and imposts, tariffs as they’re known. As long as they are uniform and as long as they are across the board -- and it’s not a protective tax either. It’s cost of doing business in this country. If you want to do business here, here’s your five percent duty or ….Continue
Restoring [r]epublican virtue: Mike Church Spreads the Good Word of John Taylor of Caroline
The Wisdom of John Taylor of Caroline by Bradley J. Birzer, TIC co-editor [Reposted with permission of The Imaginative Conservative, original article link is here] During the annual meeting of the Academy of Philosophy and Letters in Baltimore this summer, radio personality and [r]epublican man of virtue, Mike Church, called for a revival and remembrance of the thought of John Taylor of Caroline. Perhaps, Church persuasively argued, we might very well find some answers and s….Continue
John Taylor Warned Us Of The Evils Of The Party System
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - In John Taylor of Caroline's book "Inquiry Into The Principles of the Government of the United States" he warned us of the party system. He said that people involved in these parties would use them as "tools for ambition and tyranny". And, in modern layman's speak, he said that the political parties would turn into people voting for the lesser of two evils instead of choosing their conscience. Check out today's transcript for more...….Continue
John Taylor of Caroline Warns of Powerful Presidents
[The powerful Executive branch]...converts representation into vassalage to the leaders of parties, disciplined, not by the comparatively honourable infliction of the lash, but by the base and wicked sophism, that it is honourable to stick to a party, and treacherous to adhere to conscience. The disciples of this infamous doctrine are forged into tools for ambition and tyranny by praises and rewards, whilst honesty is discouraged by base epithets, as a foil to the varnish w….Continue
John Taylor of Caroline-The Evil Moral principles Of The Government of the Unite States
Mandeville, LA - This is the 3rd chapetr of John Taylor's work 'An Inquiry into the Principles and Policy of the Government of the United States" written chiefly as a response to John Adams' "Defence of the Constitutions of The United States". This chapter lays out Taylor's belief that no system of government that ever stray from [r]epublican forms can remain free of corruption. You can listen to Taylor's view of this work and why it was necessary in my audio "Docudromedy" -….Continue
Who Are These Elites That Consume and Rule Us?
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Audio and Transcript - A lot of these people exist under the umbrella of this thing called non-profits. There are other designations. There are some non-profits that actually are non-profits. You hear them talked about as non-partisan and this and that and the other. Ladies and gentlemen, they’re all in on it. They’re all in on it. I sit here on a daily basis and I watch what they serve up on CSPAN and CSPAN2 w….Continue

Introducing "The Daily [r]epublican"!
Was Secession A Constitutional Right? 1868 Book Concluded It Was. "It was in 1833, for the frst time in the history of the country, that it was solemnly asserted and argued, that the Constitution of the 'United States was not a compact between the States. This new doctrine simultaneously put forth, by Mr. Justice Story in his "Commentaries on the Constitution of the 'United States," and by Mr. Daniel Webster in "the greatest intellectual effort of his life," that is, in his great speech in the Senate of the I6th of February, 1833. In order to show that the Constitution is not a compact between the States, the position is assumed, that it is not a compact at all. If it be a compact, say they, then the States had a right to secede. But it is not a compact; and hence secession is treason and rebellion. The great fundamental questions, then, on which the whole controversy hinges are, first, Is the Constitution a compact? and, secondly, Is it a compact between the States?" - Albert Bledsoe, Was Secession A Constitutional Right (1868)
