Anniversary Of An Amazing Moment In American History! And It's Senator Eric Schmitt vs. China!

What this episode covers

We're coming up on an important anniversary in our nation's history. In January 1776, Thomas Paine wrote "Common Sense", one of the most important founding documents in American history. 1776 was a crucial year: the Declaration of Independence was signed, but the rebel forces were on the brink of disaster. The winter of 1776 was brutal, Washington's forces had suffered a string of defeats, and many were ready to give up. Washington had to do something. In December, he had "Common Sense" read out to his troops, then attacked and defeated a Hessian mercenary force at the Battle of Trenton. Some say this saved the American Revolution. Does America need a dose of "Common Sense" today? Speaking of common sense, the then-Missouri Attorney General, Eric Schmitt, sued the government of China over the Wuhan COVID-lab leak. Now China has filed a retaliatory lawsuit for $50 Billion against now-Senator Schmitt! The Senator is here to tell you about that and his reaction to President Trump's speech.
