Behaalotecha (Guest Rabbi Pinchas Allouche)

Rabbi Pinchas Allouche, head Rabbi at Congregation Beth Tefillah in Scottsdale, and the host of the Rabbi Allouche podcast, joins Seth for the full hour to talk about this week's Torah portion known as Behaalotecha, which comes from the book of Numbers, and his mention in Masada Siegel’s Wall Street Journal piece, “‘West Bank’ Is a Colonial Imposition.” Rabbi Allouche and Seth delve into the complexities of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, discussing the origins of the term "Palestine" and its implications. They explore how the use of this term can be seen as a way to erase the history of the Jewish people and the State of Israel.

On the Declaration of Independence (Guest Justice Bill Montgomery)

The Honorable Bill Montgomery, Arizona Supreme Court Justice, joins Seth to explore the Declaration of Independence and gives his insights on the importance of this document in shaping our nation's identity and values. Justice Montgomery delves into the Declaration's role in informing the Constitution and our laws. He highlights the unique aspect of American identity, which is not based on a divine right of kings or a particular sect, but on a shared belief in the founding principles and traditions. He also emphasizes the importance of understanding that our rights come from our Creator, not from government, and how this concept has been used to justify the worst crimes of humanity.   See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

A Serious Lack of Historic Knowledge

California Congresswoman Judy Chu (D) got into a vicious back-and-forth with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent today during a House Ways and Means Committee hearing. In a shocking display of ignorance Congresswoman Chu didn't know who the president was during World War One. Are aliens among us? Seth certainly thinks so. We're joined by Johnny Estes, Vice President of Operations, and Shannon Estes, President of CMI Gold & Silver. Supporting Graham Platner, a candidate for Senate in Maine who has been accused of serial abuse, is untenable for rank-and-file Democrats. New polling suggests Democrats are choosing to skip celebrating Independence Day this year. See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.
