Michael M. Uhlmann, LL.B., Ph.D. was my mentor in Constitutional Law for over a decade and convinced me not to go to law school but instead to study public law as a Ph.D. student, which I did. Here, we do an excursus on the Chevron Deference Deep Dive series on The Republican Professor podcast. We have Uhlmann on a book by Peter Wallison called "Judicial Fortitude: The Last Chance to Reign in the Administrative State." It's about Republicans calling for a revival of the non-delegation doctrine

Why Gorsuch is wrong in Bostock v. Clayton County Georgia (2020)(part 7 in a series) about his faulty assumption that unexamined and unexplained transgenderism premises about sex and gender are properly included under "sex discrimination" language in Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act -- this is a real hoot.

2025/10/17

We begin discussion of an entry in the 1963 Rand McNally publication, edited by Leonard Strauss and Joseph Cropsey, called "History of Political Philosophy." That entry on Aristotle is by Harry V. Jaffa, who famously applied his understanding of Political Philosophy to the history of the Republican Party in American politics, and who, as such, influenced me profoundly through my mentors, who were mentored by him. He is thus one of my intellectual grandfathers. This episode includes a reading from

Today we take a brief look at what exactly Charlie Kirk did on college campuses--let's describe that well, ensconced as it was within and reacting to the cultural trend of anti-intellectual laziness that produced the need for that work, sometimes cloaked in the phrase "head knowledge" as opposed to "heart knowledge." Jesus never denigrated knowledge; instead he commanded us to love God with all of our minds. Charlie was animated by living out that command as best he could. Charlie was animated by
