Elon-quake! Musk Shocks Washington With Anti-BBB X Post!
by Daniel McAdams | Jun 4, 2025 | The Liberty Report
Suddenly Elon Musk could not contain himself any longer. Yesterday on X he put out a post heard around the world, declaring himself completely opposed to the “big beautiful bill” that will add trillions in national debt and will not cut spending until years down the road. Additionally, Musk threw a lifeline to those few in Washington who have spoken out against the massive spending bill. Speaker Johnson tries to put on a brave face, but can he recover from this humiliating smackdown?
Trump Slams ‘Crazy’ Rand Paul Over Opposition To Monster Debt Increase In ‘BBB’
by Daniel McAdams | Jun 3, 2025 | The Liberty Report
Moments after Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) told CNBC that he could not vote to raise the debt limit by ANOTHER $5 Trillion as contained in the “Big Beautiful Bill” (BBB), President Trump took to his social media to hammer the Senator not once but TWICE.

by Daniel McAdams | Jun 2, 2025 | The Liberty Report
Just hours before a massive Ukrainian operation targeting Russian strategic bombers deep inside Russia, Senator Lindsey Graham and his colleague Sen, Richard Blumenthal were in Kiev again urging Ukraine to keep fighting. As President Trump has repeatedly stated that his policy is to end that war, why is a US Senator undermining official US foreign policy…and how involved was he (and other neocons in the Administration) in the Sunday attacks?
Marco Rubio’s Bizarre War On Speech
by Daniel McAdams | May 29, 2025 | The Liberty Report
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has announced new restrictions on foreign visas, including student visas, targeting individuals who he determines to be critical of the state of Israel. They will not be allowed into the United States if they express such views, he said yesterday. He also slammed foreign governments that scrutinize the social media posts of Americans and punish them for exercising free speech rights. So…is he pro-free speech or anti free speech?

by Daniel McAdams | May 28, 2025 | The Liberty Report

Trump Hits ‘Crazy’ Putin In Rage-Filled Post
by Daniel McAdams | May 27, 2025 | The Liberty Report
It didn’t have to be this way. President Trump had the opportunity when first inaugurated to wash his hands of Biden’s proxy war with Russia through Ukraine, but he could not resist intervening further. Now as things are not going as planned, he is raging at both sides, attacking Putin and Zelensky. Also today, Rand versus Lindsey on Russia secondary sanctions…who will win?

Prosperity Or Poverty? House Hands Trump His ‘Big Beautiful Bill’
by Daniel McAdams | May 22, 2025 | The Liberty Report

Neocons Strangling Iran Talks, Putting A ‘Deal’ In Jeopardy
by Daniel McAdams | May 20, 2025 | The Liberty Report
It started with President Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff claiming that Iran can have zero ability to enrich uranium, even for power generation. Then he shifted his public stance. Then he said it again and Trump chimed in. If this is the “red line” then the deal is off and the neocons may well get their US war on Iran. Also today: Trump SLAMS Thomas Massie for questioning massive debt increase in the “big beautiful bill.”

by Daniel McAdams | May 14, 2025 | The Liberty Report
In his first trip abroad, President Trump spoke in Saudi Arabia about the foolish destructiveness of the neocons and nation-builders and proclaimed a new era of respect for national sovereignty and economic development. Does this mean that non-interventionism has finally arrived?
