As political tensions rise over immigration enforcement and judicial authority, this episode revisits the timeless wisdom of Benjamin Franklin’s warning: “A republic, if you can keep it.” Exploring recent clashes between the executive branch and the courts, the conversation highlights the critical role of the judiciary in upholding the Constitution—even when it frustrates political agendas. From due process rights for non-citizens to the dangers of overreach by any branch of government, this is a powerful reminder of why America is a republic, not a pure democracy—and why that distinction matters more than ever. www.watchdogonwallstreet.com
