Today we talk to John Whitehead of The Rutherford Institute about a pair of recent commentary pieces that he penned, “The Age of Authoritarianism: Government of the Politicians, by the Military, for the Corporations” and “Reality Check: No Matter Who Wins the White House, the New Boss Will Be the Same as the Old Boss.” We discuss the problems of the police state and surveillance state, how it has been allowed to arise by a passive and docile public, and how that public can effectively engage and counteract the abuses of liberty that are now rampant throughout the American body politic.

We should share links, I could have sworn I landed on Rutherford institute from your own site. This was a while ago and it was quite helpful at the time. This reminds me, what happened to your weekly interviews with that lawyer from Texas, if you don’t mind me asking?
Yes, I did mention one of his editorials on New World Next Week a couple of months ago so you might have seen the link there.

Whitehead, in “The Right to Tell the Government to Go to Hell” (watch?v=rVjKhQRRqak), speaks of Louis Brandeis as “one of the great outspoken supreme court justices”. In the book “Against Our Better Judgement” by Alison Weir, a whole chapter is dedicated to Louis Brandeis. In this book Brandeis appears as a Zionist traitor, who helped get America into the first world war. Does Whitehead have a big blind spot in his perception of history?
It shows the scale of the current deterioration when all sides, call them the right and left if you want, have with the same concerns. While I do not support the Rutherford stance as a “pro life – anti choice” champion I do have a favourable opinion with everything said here today.
I 2nd that on all three counts.
