Description
We now have a movement whose members think that they can sit back, watch Fox News, and vote for the most prominent Republicans the system wants them to know about every two years – expecting things to change. I explain why nothing is changing, and in fact, we are sliding backward. We need to return to bottom-up self-government, and that begins in red states. Today, we spotlight the case study of Idaho with state Rep. Heather Scott, the co-chair of the Idaho Freedom Caucus. She explains how Idaho has the same corporate cartel problem as California, albeit with different lipstick on the pig. If we continue to sit back and do nothing, just assuming the state is red and Republican, we will not have a single red state left. Scott notes how the addiction to federal funding is the kryptonite of red states and how we need a small and active group of citizens to bring back self-government to oppose this addiction. The Freedom Caucus is now working on systemic government reform ideas that will address the core factors that perpetuate the GOP’s controlled opposition and failure theater.

Democrats Can't Safeguard Our Sovereignty, Security, or Society: Republicans have a majority in the House and Senate, and therefore they should be "greasing the skids" for a GOP President to come in and undo the the societal transformation that has occurred under President Obama. Democrats cannot safeguard, nor will the attempt to, our SOVEREIGNTY, SECURITY, or SOCIETY and the principles that are the basis for these pillars. The big question is why Republicans are asleep at the wheel. The GOP has the chance to win on so many "80/20" issues but shy away at the first scent that it might expose them politically. Daniel and Joe discuss these three issues, and how if Republicans wanted to win on them they could. The key to upholding Sovereignty, Security, and Society is simple -- but it requires adhering to actual conservative principles. Listen as Daniel lays out the plain facts on what it takes to win on conservative issues that are vital to the success and prosperity of America. by Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz
