    The WallBuilders Show - Should Article V Be Limited? - with Mark Meckler

    A single throwaway line can fuel a massive myth, especially when it touches the Constitution. We’re joined by Mark Meckler to clean up confusion around the “runaway convention” claim and to put real history back on the table, starting with what the 1787 delegates were actually authorized to do and why it matters for today’s Article V debates. We talk through original delegate commissions, the honor culture of the Founding era, and why blaming the framers for a supposed “rogue” convention doesn’t fit the evidence. Mark also connects the dots from the Annapolis Convention to the Constitutional Convention, showing how scope and authority were treated seriously and how limits worked in practice. If you care about constitutional history, this is a deep dive into the receipts, not the rumors. Then we shift to the modern Convention of States question: can an Article V convention be limited to specific topics? We unpack the legal concept of aggregation, why state applications must match to count toward the two-thirds requirement, and what Department of Justice opinions (including work associated with Ed Meese’s DOJ) and scholarship like Mike Farris’s Harvard Law Review writing say about a limited call. We also walk through what happens if someone tries to introduce an out-of-scope amendment, and why the 38-state ratification requirement is the final, unavoidable backstop. If this conversation challenges what you’ve heard about a constitutional convention, share it with a friend who cares about the Constitution, subscribe so you don’t miss the follow-up, and leave a review telling us the biggest myth you want to see tested next.

    Going Rogue with Lara Logan - THE GREAT IRS DECEPTION | Going Rogue with Lara Logan | Sponsored Episode

    Peymon Mottahedeh was born into a Jewish family in Iran. Immigrating to the USA in 1977 at the age of 14, he was excited to come to the land of the free and the home of the brave. Unfortunately, he found that the United States was not the beacon of freedom he believed it was. Peymon shares his journey of discovering the truth about the IRS and the fiat federal reserve system. He explains how federal income tax does not legally apply to most Americans, based on the Constitution and the Internal Revenue Code, and how he has successfully avoided paying federal income taxes for over 30 years without imprisonment or penalties.

    The WallBuilders Show - Who Gets To Define America’s “History And Tradition”?

    A single Supreme Court move can change the ground rules for a national election, even before a final decision lands. We break down the Court’s choice to lift an injunction on an election-related executive order and what that green light could mean in real life: a federal citizenship verification list, limits on who gets mail-in ballots, potential ballot tracking through the Postal Service, and clearer permission for DOJ enforcement when election laws are broken. If you care about election integrity, voter ID, and clean voter rolls, this one is packed with practical details and constitutional guardrails. We also wrestle with the federal vs state balance. States control the time, place, and manner of elections, but the Constitution gives Congress power to make or alter regulations. That tension matters because nobody wants a federal takeover, yet voters also expect basic safeguards to actually be enforced. Along the way, we connect today’s debates to a historical parallel from the Kansas-Nebraska Act era, when loose voting requirements were used to manipulate outcomes, and we talk candidly about why “there’s no fraud” rhetoric collapses the moment accountability shows up. Then the conversation turns to culture and media: a Wall Street Journal profile of WallBuilders and the claim that putting the Ten Commandments back in classrooms is radical “activism.” We lay out the receipts from American history, early education, and modern Supreme Court doctrine, including why the “history and tradition” standard has become central in religious freedom cases. If you want a clearer view of what’s constitutional, what’s historical, and what’s just framing, you’ll get it here.

    The WallBuilders Show - Courageous Christian Communication - with Troy Miller

    A baseball team forfeits a game rather than compromise its convictions, climbs back to first place, and somehow that story ends with a game-worn jersey in our studio. That’s a perfect snapshot of what we’re chasing today: how faith-driven choices spread through culture when people are unified, courageous, and willing to communicate clearly. We’re joined by Troy Miller from National Religious Broadcasters (NRB) to talk about why Christian media and Christian broadcasting matter more than ever in the age of nonstop communication. We dig into what it means to disciple through media, why a sanctified church is the church that actually impacts society, and how civic engagement fits the mission of passing on a better world to the next generation. We also unpack the real reasons many churches pulled back from being salt and light and what it looks like to step forward again with biblical fidelity. Then Troy shares eye-opening research on Christian media audiences, including why Gen Z and millennials are tuning in because they want answers, not fluff. We talk about biblical literacy as a core need, why pastors should address current issues from Scripture, and why fear of cultural backlash can’t be the deciding factor for Christian leaders. You’ll also hear practical details about the NRB Convention (Feb 23 to 27 at the Gaylord National in Washington, DC), including what’s covered on technology, AI, broadcast law, First Amendment challenges, and the cultural issues shaping the next few years. If you care about a biblical worldview, religious liberty, and courageous Christian communication, subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the conversation.
