🇺🇸 America 250 Series: Lives, Fortunes, & Sacred Honor
Jul 01, 2026🎙️Political Trade Secrets’ America 250 Series | David Barton on the Declaration of Independence, the Founders, and the Faith Behind 1776
As America approaches its 250th anniversary, do we still understand what made the Declaration of Independence possible?
In this special America 250 episode of Political Trade Secrets, host Dustin Olson is joined by David Barton, best-selling author, founder of WallBuilders, host of The WallBuilders Show, and author of Lives, Fortunes, & Sacred Honor: The Signers of the Declaration, to pull back the curtain on the faith, ideas, sermons, and sacrifices that shaped America’s founding.
This conversation explores the Declaration of Independence, the Christian heritage of the American Revolution, the pastors and patriots often associated with the Black Robe Regiment, and the forgotten Founders whose courage helped secure the liberty Americans still enjoy today.
This episode explores:
• How sermons, pastors, and Biblical ideas helped shape the grievances and principles behind the Declaration of Independence
• What the Black Robe Regiment reveals about the role of clergy in the American Revolution
• How the Declaration was debated, revised, adopted, and signed
• Why Barton says Thomas Jefferson has been deeply misunderstood, from the Jefferson Bible to separation of church and state
• The forgotten stories of Founders like Benjamin Rush and John Witherspoon
• What the signers risked when they pledged their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor
• Why America 250 should be about more than fireworks, nostalgia, or slogans
• What Americans today should remember about faith, liberty, rights, and self-government
