  • Andrew Jackson vs. John Quincy Adams: The Birth of American Political Warfare | The American Story | Ep 13

    Andrew Jackson vs. John Quincy Adams: The Birth of American Political Warfare | The American Story | Ep 13
    Jul 11 2026
    Two American giants collide in the brutal birth of modern politics. John Quincy Adams and Andrew Jackson were born the same year, but they represented two radically different Americas. One was a polished diplomat raised for public service; the other was a fiery frontier warrior who carried bullets, grudges, and political rage. Their rivalry explodes through the “corrupt bargain” of 1824, the vicious election of 1828, and leads to the birth of the Democratic Party. This is the story of how Andrew Jackson forever altered the presidency, and how John Quincy Adams found new purpose as a warrior in the fight against slavery.

    “Someone Has to Go First”: Glenn Beck’s Inspiring Speech from the USS Midway
    Jul 4 2026
    On the 82nd anniversary of D-Day, Glenn Beck speaks aboard the USS Midway in San Diego, California, as part of Moms for Liberty’s “Sea to Shining Sea” event. Glenn asks a question we all must all answer: Do we still have the courage, bravery, and selflessness of the Greatest Generation? Because, as Glenn explains through historical stories about the Battle of Midway, D-Day, America’s founding, and the Gettysburg Address, someone always had to go first for the battle to be won. As America faces new challenges, Glenn asks, are you willing to truly stand up for what you believe in? GLENN'S SPONSORS: Byrna: Not every threat requires lethal force.

    May 30 2026
    The American experiment nearly collapsed before it ever truly began. Plunge into the chaos of post-Revolution America: mutinous soldiers surrounding Congress, a government too weak to defend itself, and a nation fracturing under the failed Articles of Confederation.

Packed with tension, rebellion, and political intrigue, this episode reveals how close the United States came to falling apart – and how bold ideas, fierce debate, and fragile compromise saved it.
