## Resource

Episode Synopsis: Is the United States really the land of the free and home of the brave, or is all of that just clever propaganda disguising the true nature of the federalized empire of Uncle Sam? We talk about this and much more, including: How long did it take for the United States to violate the values espoused in its founding documents? Why was the Louisiana Purchase considered an illegal purchase? How does the United States justify denying lawful protection to its own citizens? Why was Sanford Dole, the founder of the Dole fruit company, the president of Hawaii? How does the United States operate the “Footprint of Freedom,” an illegal 15-mile-long military base off the coast of Africa?
