  • Is It Really Church vs. State? — The Establishment Clause Explained | The Republic IYCKI #11
    2026/02/11

    Rob and Lou dive into one of the most misunderstood ideas in American life: “separation of church and state.” They crack open the myth, the history, and the modern confusion around a phrase that never actually appears in the Constitution—yet shapes how millions think about faith in public life.

    From schoolhouse debates to the Founders’ own writings, they explore why the Establishment Clause protects freedom of religion, not freedom from ever encountering religion. The Framers built a system that blocks government‑imposed faith while still recognizing that religion has always been woven into America’s civic and cultural story.

    If you’ve ever wondered where the line really is—and why so many people draw it in the wrong place—this episode brings the clarity, context, and sharp conversation you’ve come to expect.

  • Can States Defy Federal Power? — Minnesota v. ICE Explained | Special Report #4 | The Republic IYCKI
    2026/01/29

    In this special deep‑dive episode of The Republic – If You Can Keep It, Rob & Lou unpack one of the most fascinating constitutional clashes unfolding today: Minnesota and Minneapolis suing ICE under the 10th Amendment. What looks like a political headline becomes a powerful lesson in federalism, state sovereignty, and the limits of federal authority — the kind of grounded civic analysis that defines this show.Rob & Lou break down why Minnesota argues that ICE’s enforcement actions inside the state violate the 10th Amendment and impose financial burdens on local resources. They explore the amendment’s famously brief language, the historical meaning of “reserved powers,” and how Minnesota is using that framework to challenge federal immigration enforcement.The conversation digs into landmark Supreme Court cases like Printz v. United States and Murphy v. NCAA, which established that the federal government cannot commandeer state resources. Rob & Lou contrast this with Texas v. United States, where a state sued the federal government for not enforcing immigration laws — revealing the contradictions that make modern federalism so complex.With immigration enforcement rooted in Article I and Article II powers, the federal government’s authority is strong — but Minnesota’s lawsuit raises real constitutional questions worth examining. Rob & Lou bring clarity, context, and a steady constitutional lens to one of the most important state‑versus‑federal disputes in the country.Case Links: https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/72132615/state-of-minnesota-v-noem https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/72132615/state-of-minnesota-v-noemOfficial Broadcast & Social Links (Full List)🎙️ Podcast Platformshttps://www.youtube.com/@TheRepublicIfYouCanKeepIt YouTube Podcast Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLakXKp5eOb87ECl0PYEt54DsdD0q-kkqv 📱 Social MediaX (Twitter): https://x.com/TheRepublic4AllInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/therepublic_ifyoucankeepit🌍 This content is created for educational, historical, and informational purposes only.
