The Lie About America's Founding That's Lasted 70 Years

For 70 years, Americans have been told that "separation of church and state" means Christianity has no place in government. But Thomas Jefferson wrote that phrase to protect the church from government — not the other way around. The left took his words, reversed the meaning, and weaponized them to systematically purge religious expression from public life. And almost nobody caught it. So when a professor told Katie Couric on camera that America "was not founded on Christian principles in any sense" — he didn't know John Adams had already answered that claim in an 1813 letter. In his own words: "The general principles upon which the fathers achieved independence were the general principles of Christianity." Lance Wallnau breaks down the biggest rhetorical con in American political history — and why Trump's Religious Liberty Commission is the first serious move to dismantle it. In this episode: * What Jefferson's letter to the Danbury Baptists actually said — and how it got flipped * Why "Christian nationalist" is a scare label engineered to silence you, not describe you * The Oval Office Religious Liberty Commission meeting and Trump's next move on the Establishment Clause * John Adams vs. a modern professor — watch the receipts land in real time * The Johnson Amendment: why your pastor stays quiet, and why that's about to change The lie lasted 70 years.
