The Supreme Court today will take up the case of a Colorado baker who was found to have violated anti-descrimination laws in Colorado for refusing to bake a wedding cake for a same-sex couple. The baker has argued that the lower court ruling violates his right to religious expression. In today’s Liberty Report we are joined by RPI Senior Fellow Adam Dick to take a look at what are the real issues at stake in this dispute…

‘Fair’ Tax, Just War, Houston Astros and more…#AskRonPaul!
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 4, 2017 | The Liberty Report
Do libertarians ever believe that war is justified? What about using the military to intervene in suspected genocides overseas? Is that OK? Ron Paul answers viewers questions in today’s edition of the Liberty Report:
Massacre In Somalia: US Troops To Blame?
by Daniel McAdams | Nov 30, 2017 | The Liberty Report
In August ten villagers in Somalia were killed in a military raid conducted by US and Somali troops. According to a recent investigation by the Daily Beast, they were killed by Americans. A subsequent Pentagon/AFRICOM investigation claimed that those killed were all enemy combatants. Who’s telling the truth? But more importantly, why are American troops even operating in a country like Somalia. There are no legitimate threats to the US in Somalia. The only threats will come if the US continues to kill civilians, which leads to radicalization of the population. More in today’s Liberty Report:
‘Turning The Corner’ in Afghanistan…Again
by Daniel McAdams | Nov 29, 2017 | The Liberty Report
The US general in charge of our 16 year war in Afghanistan said yesterday that with this all-new strategy we are finally “turning the corner” in the war. A few thousand more troops and a commitment to stay as long as needed will finally deliver a “win.” Haven’t we heard this song before? Yes. Several times. Since 2004.

Iran Re-Certified; Washington In Denial
by Daniel McAdams | Nov 28, 2017 | The Liberty Report
The Trump Administration is increasingly isolated at the UN Security Council, as the UN has once again certified that Iran is in compliance with its obligations under the P5+1 agreement. Trump argues that Iran is not in compliance with the “spirit” of the deal — a confusing claim that is difficult to understand. Are they looking to replay the Iraq war on Iran?

Hypocrisy: US Meddling In Hungarian Elections
by Daniel McAdams | Nov 27, 2017 | The Liberty Report
At at time when many in the US are obsessed with the idea that Russia might have meddled in our elections last year, the US State Department has announced a new program to overtly meddle in the election of Hungary — a fellow NATO member country. Is this another case of “do as we say, not as we do”? Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:

Abolish The TSA As Soon As Possible. With Guest Jim Bovard
by Daniel McAdams | Nov 22, 2017 | The Liberty Report
The Transportation Safety Administration gets away with what would be prosecuted as sexual assault if any of the rest of us did it. Yet Americans put up with the groping and downright punching of private parts because they still believe the TSA keeps them safe. And when the TSA’s own Inspector General tests how “safe” they keep us? Mock bombs get through 80-95 percent of the time. And when their miserable job performance becomes public? They demand even more money. In today’s Liberty Report — on the busiest travel day of the year — we demand the end of the anti-American TSA and a return to the Fourth Amendment of our Constitution!

DOD Conference Bill Passed…Yet We’re Less Safe & Poorer
by Daniel McAdams | Nov 20, 2017 | The Liberty Report
Ron Paul breaks down the massive DoD spending bill Conference Report that has just passed Congress. More money for Ukraine? Israel’s missile defense? Lots of welfare for the military industrial complex? More money for the failed F-35? Lots of money for other countries to buy our weapons, to keep the military industrial complex rich while working Americans see their real income decline. How our militarism is strangling us…in today’s Liberty Report:
The Real Cost Of War: Three Times More Than The Government Admits
by Daniel McAdams | Nov 16, 2017 | The Liberty Report
Imagine if the $5.6 trillion that it is now estimated to have been spent on 16 years of US global wars had been put to better use. Imagine how families would have been able to afford education if the value of the dollar had not been inflated away to fund the military industrial complex. In today’s Liberty Report we discuss a new Brown University study concluding that the endless wars have cost three times more than the Pentagon estimated:
War on ISIS – Whose Side Are We Really On?
by Daniel McAdams | Nov 15, 2017 | The Liberty Report
On Sunday, Defense Secretary James Mattis said in a press conference that the US military would remain in Syria for the long haul, “as long as there are ISIS who want to fight” he said. He falsely claimed that the US operates in Syria with UN permission. According to a blockbuster BBC report, however, the US government was part of a secret deal to allow thousands of ISIS fighters and their families safe passage from Raqqa — with their weapons!
