{"store":{"baseInfo":{"podcastTitle":"The Liberated Citizen","slug":"theliberatedcitizen","podcastDescription":"This podcast uses American Liberty, values, and history to provide a lens to understand today’s issues, problems, and challenges. Through this lens, The Liberated Citizen will explore solutions and changes to challenge how you think. Today’s society and government have placed restrictions upon your education and thoughts with a complicit media apparatus (both left and right). Elites or people in power seek to make you ignorant, compliant, and apathetic in order to consolidate power and control. This podcast is about recapturing the essence of American exceptionalism through understanding and critical thinking in order for you to cut the strings and break the chains holding you back from living a life of liberty while pursuing your happiness.","podcastLogo":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/imglogo/image-logo/17407864/cover_pop_Liberated_Citizen_cropped_sized_low_nhfxcw.png","podcastShareLogo":"https://d2bwo9zemjwxh5.cloudfront.net/image-logo/17407864/cover_pop_Liberated_Citizen_cropped_sized_low_nhfxcw_1200x628.jpg?s=bc4a6e629dfb5dee9b97439ce35c3aa2&e=png","podcastUrl":"https://theliberatedcitizen.podbean.com","podcastCanSearched":true,"feedUrl":"https://feed.podbean.com/theliberatedcitizen/feed.xml","theme":"focuspod","podcastDeepLink":"https://www.podbean.com/pw/pbblog-7qg9r-1099f78?from=usersite","removePodbeanBranding":"no","brandingLogo":null,"timeZone":{"timeZoneId":15,"gmtAdjustment":"GMT-05:00","useDaylightTime":1,"value":-5,"text":"(GMT-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada)","daylightStartTime":"Second Sunday Of March +2 Hours","daylightEndTime":"First Sunday Of November +2 Hours","timezone":"America/New_York"},"podcastDownloads":null,"totalEpisodes":14,"showComments":true,"iOSAppDownloadLink":null,"customizeCssUrl":null,"androidAppDownloadLink":null,"showPostShare":true,"showLike":true,"author":"Greg Stroud","enableEngagementStats":true,"shareEmbedLink":"https://admin5.podbean.com/embed.html?id=pbblog-7qg9r-1099f78-playlist","language":"en","sensitivitySessionExpireTime":10800,"podcastApps":[{"name":"Apple Podcasts","link":"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-liberated-citizen/id1724080160","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/apple-podcast.png","title":null},{"name":"Podbean App","link":"https://www.podbean.com/pw/pbblog-7qg9r-1099f78?from=usersite","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/podbean-app.png","title":null},{"name":"Spotify","link":"https://open.spotify.com/show/5DhPVz5gqs6HGVfZcQyjZH","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/spotify.png","title":null},{"name":"Amazon Music","link":"https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/a6014bb5-a8bb-403e-9742-0d9c4a4d4fd8","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/AmazonMusic.png","title":null}],"components":{"base":[{"id":"MainStyle","val":"light"},{"id":"Font","val":"Roboto"},{"id":"SecondaryFont","val":"PT Sans"},{"id":"PlayerColor","val":"#FF2C2C"},{"id":"PlayerStyle","val":"player1"},{"id":"PlayerWave","val":"show"},{"id":"Favicon","val":null},{"id":"CookiesNotice","val":"hide"},{"id":"CookiesNoticeContent","val":"

Liberated

“This is more than a podcast; it's a movement. This movement did not begin with this podcast, but this podcast seeks to broaden and swell the ranks of those who believe that the ideals of the Declaration and Founding Fathers are still relevant and seek to remold the American Experiment back into line with those ideals. Here, we challenge the status quo, we challenge encroachments on our liberty, we challenge the Orwellian tactics that seek to dominate your thinking. In short, we dare to reimagine what freedom truly means in today’s world. Join us as we re-apply these truths to the modern world, uncover forgotten paths to happiness, tear down barriers to success, and equip you with the tools to carve out a life of true fulfillment. “

In this episode of The Liberated Citizen, we take a look at what the Trump and Republican victory means and discuss some of the controversial nominees. I also offer some advice for the Republicans in terms of strategy for keeping control of Congress through the mid-terms. Finally, I offer some reflections on the initial steps for DOGE.
