Ep.458: A Republic If You Can Keep It...Or Phoenix It? w/ Cynthia Chung | The Courtenay Turner Podcast
Cynthia Chung returns to the Courtenay Turner podcast to discuss the strange speech Bret Weinstein gave at the Rescue the Republic event. Most are familiar with Ben Franklin's famous line "A Republic if you can keep it..." but Bret says it's republic if we can Phoenix it. What does he mean by this strange variation and is there deeper semiotics to the famous avian reference? This conversation is a prelude to a fantastic film Cynthia has now released on the subject.

Hi Cynthia, check out the book "The Phoenix Program" by Douglas Valentine. I had just finished reading, and was surprised to find your mention of this in videos that you and Matt have recently made. Doug goes into very much detail on the history in Vietnam with the French, the US involvement, and all the Phoenix details, how the program morphed over time, and how it failed for a variety of reasons. A very complicated situation regarding all the stakeholders in the program, and the politics, and corruption that undermined it, where it became a terrible influence on the people. Lots to unpack.
i think you all should read this. https://substack.com/home/post/p-156289474?source=queue
