The Founders didn't build a libertarian utopia or a progressive origin myth — they built libertarian nationalism, and 250 years later Washington can't define it. Austin reads what Jefferson, Hamilton, Madison, and Jay actually wrote and makes the argument both sides need you to never hear. Then: Rubio quoted Cypress Hill and started a 2028 primary nobody announced. Vance was in Iowa explaining a war he privately opposed. We run both men through the libertarian nationalist scorecard. Jeremy Kauffman — blockchain entrepreneur and LP of New Hampshire chairman — joins to answer whether a party with no senators, no governors, and a peak of three percent still deserves to exist. The national LP censured his state party. He endorsed Trump anyway. And Maggie Anders, Young Voices Commentator, breaks down Spencer Pratt's run for Mayor of LA — second place in a fourteen-candidate field, Joe Rogan's backing, a viral Gotham ad, and five weeks to the June 2nd primary. Karen Bass called it a Trump impression. Los Angeles is a lot right now. 🏛️ Jefferson, Hamilton, Madison, and Jay — what they actually wrote, why the Founders were libertarian nationalists before the term existed, and why both the left and the right need you to never make this argument ⚔️ The 2028 primary scorecard: Rubio vs. Vance on economics, foreign policy, and character — who passes the libertarian nationalist test and who is performing loyalty instead of governing by conviction 🗳️ The Libertarian Party at fifty-three years old — no presidents, no senators, one percent of the vote on a good night, and a state chairman who endorsed Trump over his own party's nominee 🎬 Spencer Pratt for Mayor of LA — the Palisades fire, the cover-up, the homeless industrial complex, the viral ads, and whether an outsider can actually crack the deep blue urban machine with five weeks to go GUESTS THIS EPISODE: 🎙️ Jeremy Kauffman — @jeremykauffman on X 🎙️ Maggie Anders — @maggiemoda on X ☕ SHOP THE 250TH ANNIVERSARY COLLECTION AND THE FULL LIBERTY STORE: → 4LibertyShop.com 🌍 PROTECT WHAT YOU'VE BUILT — OFFSHORE, LEGAL, AND YOURS: → expatmoney.com/AUSTIN 🤝 JOIN THE COMMUNITY ON DISCORD: → 4libertynetwork.com 💪 SUPPORT THE NETWORK AND KEEP INDEPENDENT CONSERVATIVE MEDIA ALIVE: → wakeupamericashow.com/support #WakeUpAmerica #AustinPetersen #250thAnniversary #July4th #LibertarianNationalism #Jefferson #Hamilton #Madison #Founders #Rubio2028 #JDVance #2028Primary #IranWar #LibertyParty #LibertarianParty #JeremyKauffman #SpencerPratt #LAMayor #KarenBass #PalisadesFire #LosAngeles #MaggieAnders #YoungVoices #MAGA #FreeState #NewHampshire #Liberty #Constitution #NaturalRights
