Ford’s $5 Day, Venezuela Strike, and the Fight for Constitutional Power | Radio - HR1-1/5/26
Join Sam Bushman and Dr. Scott Bradley on Liberty RoundTable Live for a hard-hitting episode that dives deep into the headlines shaping America’s future. Broadcasting from the Rocky Mountains, this show covers the historic impact of Henry Ford’s $5 workday, the democratization of car ownership, and the erosion of real wages over time. The hosts then turn to breaking news: the U.S. military strike in Venezuela, the capture of Nicolás Maduro, and the constitutional crisis sparked by executive overreach. Dr. Bradley offers a principled analysis of the separation of powers, the dangers of unchecked presidential authority, and the consequences of Congress failing to uphold its duties. The discussion expands to include the attacks on constitutional champions like Thomas Massie, the rise of collectivist rhetoric, and the urgent need for Americans to defend liberty, religious freedom, and the rule of law. Don’t miss this in-depth conversation on history, current events, and the foundational principles that must guide our nation.
