Nullify: Thomas Jefferson’s Radical Declaration They Want You to Ignore

“A nullification of the act is the rightful remedy.” That’s how Thomas Jefferson put it in his draft Resolutions against the Alien and Sedition Acts. On November 10, 1798, the Kentucky legislature passed resolutions based on his principles. They not only reaffirmed the Constitution’s structure a strict line between delegated and reserved powers, but also laid out how to defend it against violations of the constitution by the federal government.

You Can’t COMPLY Your Way Out of TYRANNY: The Forgotten Foundation

This principle – central to the American Revolution – has been almost totally forgotten and ignored. On this episode, we’re uncovering powerful warnings from leading Founders and Old Revolutionaries about the dangers of compliance with usurpations of power. And a century later, the radical Lysander Spooner took up the same cause, fiercely defending these principles of resistance to defend liberty. These are lessons we can’t afford to ignore any longer.

Oath to the Constitution: Ignored and Betrayed Daily at the Cost of Liberty

“If their duty, their honor, and their oaths will not bind them, let us not put into their hands our liberty, and all our other great interests.” Those are the words of Gouverneur Morris, the “penman of the Constitution.” Today, despite that warning – politicians ignore that oath every day – and the people keep letting them get away with it. The price is our liberty.

REFUSE TO COMPLY: How the Stamp Act Was Nullified

Refuse to comply. That’s exactly what the people did to bring down the Stamp Act once it went into effect on November 1, 1765. We’ve all heard about the fiery protests and the bold resistance, but there was so much more to the story. On this episode, learn their hidden strategies of defiance – the methods they used that government-run schools never talk about. These are the same strategies the founders told us to use to nullify unconstitutional acts today.

Repeal the 17th Amendment: Ignored Anti-Federalist Warnings on the Senate

Repealing the 17th Amendment is the right move to help restore federalism – but is it enough? The Anti-Federalists warned us about dangers in the Senate’s structure long before the 17th came along, and without understanding those warnings, we could still end up with the same problems: corruption, power grabs, and more centralized control.

Most Important (and Ignored) Veto in History: James Madison’s Last Stand

On his very last day in office, James Madison shocked Congress by vetoing an infrastructure bill – even though he supported the idea behind it. Madison refused to sign off on the measure, saying it didn’t follow the strict limits of the Constitution, even if it aligned with his own political goals. This might be the most important – and most ignored – veto in history.

Patrick Henry vs the Constitution: Ignored Anti-Federalist Warnings

This government “will swallow the liberties of the people, without giving them previous notice.” That’s the stark warning Patrick Henry gave us in 1788.

Boston Tea Party? It Actually Started in Philadelphia!

“The active business of the American Revolution began in Philadelphia.” That’s what Benjamin Rush and John Adams believed – because the spark that ignited the Boston Tea Party wasn’t in Boston. It was lit in Philadelphia on October 16, 1773. This forgotten piece of history involves fiery protests, bold resolutions, and even letters from the Committee on Tarring and Feathering.
