The Truth Quest PodcastThe Truth Quest PodcastEp. 258 - The Truth About Useful IdiotsIn this episode, we examine a very powerful and useful voting block. One that the Left has successfully cultivated and nurtured for decades. Without them, the Left's "Anti-Everything Agenda" (anti-human, anti-liberty, anti-freedom, anti-religion and anti-family) would die on the vine in one election cycle. I am referring to the apathetic and intellectually lazy among us. The hook-line-and-sinker, Kool-Aid drinking, mind numb robots who like being told what to do and what to think. These people are not on a truth quest; they are on an affirmation bias quest. They avoid and refuse to debate people...2023-08-1629 minThe Truth Quest PodcastThe Truth Quest PodcastEp. 257 - The Truth About July 2023 - Cocaine in the White House!Five words embody the memory of July, 2023: "Cocaine in the White House!"

Along the way we had two more indictments of Trump, the attempted censorship of RFK, Jr. by Democrats at a congressional hearing ABOUT CENSORSHIP and an unexpected number one hit at the box office and on the Billboard charts.

Rather than following the lead of the majority, we look at it through the lens of what the writers and ratifiers of that amendment meant and said at the time of ratification. Then, for fun, we walk through the laughable dissenting opinions as well as briefly examine the Left's reaction to the opinion and offer some real solutions to the problem.

We saw an end to affirmative action in college admissions. There was the return of Tucker Carlson and another indictment of Trump. There was a slap on the wrist of America's favorite crackhead and lots of mainstream media coverage of the vile nature and corruption of the current President of the United States and his extended family.

When that strategy proves ineffective, they shift to "Deny Reality and Change the Definition!” In this episode, we examine how the Left has, for many years, simply changed the definition of words rather than face the mockery and scorn of the public.

As discussed, the list of American intervention overseas is quite remarkable: Hawaii, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala, Grenada, Panama, Yugoslavia, the Korean Peninsula, the Philippines, Vietnam, Chile, Egypt, Kosovo, Somalia, Congo, currently we are involved in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and Yemen.  In this...2020-01-2617 minThe Truth Quest PodcastThe Truth Quest PodcastEp. 81 - The Truth About the Killing of Qasem SoleimaniTwo weeks prior to the original publication of this episode, the United States military killed a man named Qasem Soleimani outside the Baghdad airport.
