Wallbuilders Live! With David Barton & Rick Green

Today on Foundations of Freedom Thursday, we take the time to answer listener questions. Could the forgotten power of "letters of marque and reprisal" be the key to combating modern-day threats like drug cartels and human trafficking? Join us as we explore this provocative question and unravel the historical and contemporary implications of Congress potentially authorizing private entities to take action where our military might traditionally step in. We navigate the fine line between constitutional possibilities and the risks of privatizing military force, all while considering the consequential impact on international relations.Switching focus, we reflect on the ever-evolving landscape of government accountability and the role of constitutional agencies, comparing past naval support dynamics to our current military might. This conversation brings to light the shifting responsibilities and challenges in maintaining fiscal transparency and accountability in today's expansive federal landscape.
