I sat down with Phil Magness, economic historian and author of "The 1619 Project Myth," to discuss how the New York Times rewrote the founding narrative of the United States, first in print but eventually in schools nationwide.

We get into:

• How Phil caught a fabricated claim about Excel and plantations

• How the "new historians of capitalism" rewrote economic history

• Why Adam Smith, the father of capitalism, disproves the 1619 narrative

• Why libertarians and marxists united against the 1619 Project

• How Phil caught the Times quietly deleting its own claims

• The real story the Declaration of Independence tells about slavery

• How Britain and the US ended the slave trade

• The claim that slavery was the main driver of American wealth
