Thank you for all your work Dr. Freeman, i've watched your American Revolution series more than a couple times(and am hoping you can convince yale to upload your early US history course as well!) and just happened upon your work here, its such a nice feeling when someone whose academic work you already respect uses that to bring clarity to the really big BIG issues right now.
The Bill Buckner of Supreme Court decisions. An easy grounder just plain blown. How are we not to be depressed when we see six members of the court, with very much premeditation, do such damage to this wonderful experiment?
Hamilton would love this court. It’s not enough that he stuck us with the idea that debt, for lack of a better word, is good (a central bank) but he would love this as if it were the wife of a friend.
With the rise of Christian nationalism have you ever done or thought of doing an episode on religion in the founding of America and the reason for the first amendment?
