The Fight for the 14th Amendment, with John Wrench

Host Cody Cook welcomed John Wrench from the Institute for Justice to talk about the history of the judiciary gutting the U.S. Constitution’s 14th amendment protections, as told in IJ’s excellent podcast Bound By Oath. Tune in for a fascinating, and sometimes horrifying, look back.

Note: this episode was recorded prior to Trump’s inauguration so the controversy over the president’s attempts to repeal birthright citizenship through executive order is not discussed. However, this discussion will provide a lot of the background necessary to understand this particular debate.
