Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss DC’s forceful actions and language in Texas and the Balkans as the Texas state government begins to defy DC on border protection and the Republika Srpska makes serious noises on secession. Is DC now really beginning to fear the growing secessionist sentiment both at home and abroad? Is DC in any position to effectively crack down on these secessionist movements?

Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss the different approaches now being discussed by the Greater Idaho movement in their quest to bring about separation from Oregon and unification with Idaho. What are the pros and cons of the three initial ideas proposed? Are there other options available which would be a longer campaign but would bring about success for the Greater Idaho and be a positive long-term trend in both the area and the country as a whole? How does this effort to re-direct Greater Idaho’s approach prove that long-term the movement will succeed in it’s goals?

Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss the news out of the British Isles where the City of London and the British Deep State are putting forward a narrative that social media bots, which they claim originate from Iran, are behind the recent surge in popularity for Scottish Independence. Why does this narrative have no real evidence backing it up? Is this being used to justify a future crackdown by the British Deep State to destroy the Scottish Independence effort? Are they also trying to lay the groundwork justifying British intervention in the war being waged against Iran? What should Scottish Independence backers be doing to combat this narrative going into the 2026 Scottish elections?

Professor Wall, the Secession Minstrel and the Jester hold the annual Secession Day discussion unpacking the following question: “Why are we forbidden to discuss the topic of secession?” Why is it considered a cultural taboo to even bring up the topic? Could it be that the Elite classes recognize that if they wish to maintain their rule over the people that then the people must not be made aware of a very effective political tool in their toolbox?

This piece from the Acton Institute speaks very much to our views here at "On This Terrestrial Ball" on what the relationship should be between family and the workplace. Here we always says that "Family Comes First". That means occasionally we will have gaps in our publication schedule when we need to tend to matters which affect family. However we are still committed to spreading the word on the causes which are important to the everyday people so that EVERYONE will be able to put family first in the not-too-distant future and it is why we value your support so much! Be a rebel, raise a family and show & tell the family how much you love them! https://rlo.acton.org/archives/124383-your-job-is-not-your-family.html
Sharing here a GREAT conversation between two very learned gentlemen: Daniel Miller, the President of the Texas Nationalist Movement, and former North Dakota state legislator Rick Becker, the host of the podcast “War, Divorce or Federalism”. In this episode, these two discuss TEXIT, the practicalities surrounding separation from the Washington DC Empire, the fallacies surrounding anti-separation arguments stemming from ridiculous talking points like Texas v White, and so much more! Listen in and get a great influx of knowledge from two gentlemen who KNOW their stuff!
In a crossover episode with the new podcast“War, Divorce or Federalism” Professor Wall engages in a lively discussion with former North Dakota state legislator Rick Becker on America’s current situation and the choices facing the peoples who make up this vast country. Can federalism be re-asserted through a process like the Article V Convention so as to diffuse tensions and so prevent the onset of a possible civil war? Or have things deteriorated so badly that only national divorce can bring back peace?
