The Liberty Mic

Lots of foreign policy stuff, as the US threatens war all over the world.  Pompeo lies about Venezuela -- the more you know.  Intermission on Gaza.  Bolton lies about Iran.  Knowing is half the battle.

The next a-hole entering the Presidential race.  Government poisons its citizens... wittingly.  More coup-coup talk -- sink or swim moment for the opposition in Venezuela.  Are Bolton and Pompeo actually the same person?  We end on a plethora of pertinent misconceptions.

Journalism is a state of mind.  He/She said.  What happens in Baghdad stays in Baghdad?  Should you be in trouble for revealing the identity of a criminal?  That's why press freedom exists!  Finally, a laundry list of Trump mistakes in the last week.

Welcome to divided government.  The UK government was not happy with the unexpected results of the Brexit referendum, and they don't know what they want to do next.  Will they come to some compromise or continue to delay until they get the referendum results they wanted?  And Roger Daltrey makes it clear he does not want to be ruled by the f***in' mafia.

First Amendment! Mostly freedom of speech, but there's so much more. Liberty Larry fails to keep me on track; so war lies. Underground printing press and the right to protest. And All-Licensing-Is-Unconstitutional!

At the LPA Convention this past weekend, we had the great pleasure of interviewing foreign policy expert, Scott Horton.  He can be found at:  scotthorton.org for the interview archive, antiwar.com for the foreign policy news aggregate, libertarianinstitute.org and buy his book Fool's Errand:  Time to End the War in Afghanistan.

So much stuff!  Always open with a poorly delivered joke.  North Korea, Libya, Iran, Syria, and why you can never trust the US government.  Venezuela's still happening; don't be in the dark. ;)  Headline: Scarcity Truism Restricts Green New Deal.  AAAHHMAZING announcements!!!

What happens when you need more money for a government project?  You just print what you need.  What could go wrong?  It turns out how we'll pay for the Green New Deal might be 'a thing,' and inflation might be, too.  Oh, and The Simpsons.

We continue our discussion of the situation in Venezuela.  Then, we move to a discussion of identity politics and time preferences, including how long we can wait for marshmallows.

Discussing trouble in Venezuela, possibility of US military intervention and rights of Venezuelans to self-determination with a sideline about Guaido's background and whether he's a spook.
