They twisted the words. Flipped the definitions. Made traitors look like patriots and patriots look like traitors. Samuel Adams warned us in 1748. Thomas Gordon exposed the trick decades earlier. The founders and old revolutionaries knew what we’ve long forgotten.

It’s the oldest trick in the book - a scam for power and control. From ancient tyrants who faked attacks, to the founders’ own warnings, this is the real Trojan Horse that the people have faced all through history. The greatest danger isn’t a foreign invader - it’s the ruler who PRETENDS to love liberty.

Path to Liberty: November 12, 2025

The founders knew what most ignore today: freedom has a prerequisite. KNOWLEDGE. Tyrants throughout history understood this - learning makes people argue instead of obey. From ancient Rome to feudal Europe to today, it's the same playbook. Ban it. Control it. Lie about it. The question is: what are YOU going to do about it?

Spooner understood something most Americans still refuse to believe today. Every check on federal power you were taught about? They don’t work. Oaths? Meaningless. Elections? Theater. Separation of powers? Not in practice. As he put it, tyrants only care about one thing.

The Anti-Federalist vs Federalist debate you were never taught. It wasn't about checks and balances. It was about one word: TRUST. The Anti-Federalists said you can NEVER trust the man. The Federalists countered - maybe so, but you CAN trust the PLAN. It was a core conflict over ratification - and an ironic twist that tells us which side was right.

The Anti-Federalists weren't just arguing politics; they were issuing dire warnings for generations to come. They predicted the Constitution contained the seeds of tyranny that would lead to a corrupt aristocracy or monarchy. On this episode, we explore five of their specific predictions and ask the essential question: Were they right?

In America, the law is king. But here's what the schools don't teach: even government's laws aren't above THE law. The Constitution is the supreme law of the land - acts beyond it are void. The Founders told us over and over: violating these so-called “laws” isn't inherently wrong. As Patrick Henry put it, we're "not bound to yield obedience." And sometimes, it’s duty. This is the revolutionary case for disobedience that built America.

When government goes beyond its limits, those acts carry no legal force at all. They’re usurpations - STOLEN POWER. And they deserve to be treated that way too.
