The apparent massive welfare fraud committed by Somali-Americans in Minnesota has animated anti-immigrant sentiment in the US. The corruption appears to go deep. But are there other causes to the current crisis? Also today: Pentagon sends more free stuff to Israel…

Trump Caves To Bibi – Agrees To Backstop New Israeli War On Iran
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 30, 2025 | The Liberty Report
All it took was the fifth visit by Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu to get President Trump to drastically change the US position on Iran from “no nukes” to “no missiles.” Trump agreed to support an Israeli attack on Iran’s non-nuclear missile program. “We’ll knock the hell out of them,” he said at a press conference after the Netanyahu meeting. Also today: CIA airstrikes on Venezuelan territory signal yet another US war escalation.
Zelensky To Trump: ‘Give Me 50 Year Security Guarantee…And More Money!’
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 29, 2025 | The Liberty Report
Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky was back in DC over the weekend to once again make outrageous demands of the United States: NATO-like security guarantees for 50 YEARS…and more money. The US, Ukraine, and Europe are all negotiating with each other…meanwhile Russia is taking territory and winning the war. Also today – Bibi’s back in town as well and he wants Uncle Sam to go to war for him (again) in Iran. Can Trump say “no”?
US Seizes Tanker Carrying Chinese Oil…Beijing Not Amused
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 22, 2025 | The Liberty Report
The US has seized a third tanker this month carrying oil from Venezuela, and this time it may have grabbed a hot potato: the ship is carrying oil purchased by a Chinese company and headed to China. China is Venezuela’s largest oil customer and the seizure of its property could signal a crisis in US/China relations.
Col. Macgregor’s Dire Warning For 2026!
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 19, 2025 | The Liberty Report
Col. Douglas Macgregor joins today’s Liberty Report with a dire warning for the coming year. Spending, inflation, and the looming threat of wars have the warning signs blaring red. Our leaders seem incapable of leading this country out of the gathering storm. What can we do to right this ship? Is there hope?
What Was Said – And Wasn’t Said – In Trump’s TV Speech
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 18, 2025 | The Liberty Report
President Trump addressed the nation last night live on television amid rumors he would announce the beginning of a war on Venezuela. Several warnings – including from Tucker Carlson – indicated the war announcement was likely. In the end the word “Venezuela” was not uttered. What does it mean? Also today – a new poll on Republican support for Israel aid is bound to be a headache for Trump.
Gunboat Diplomacy: Trump Declares Full Naval Blockade Of Venezuela
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 17, 2025 | The Liberty Report
In a rambling social media post last night, President Trump declared that US military vessels off the Venezuelan coast would enforce a full naval blockade of the country until “our land and our oil” are returned to the US. Will the US attack Russian or Chinese ships who do not recognize the blockade?
From Drugs to War? Trump Labels Fentanyl a ‘WMD’
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 16, 2025 | The Liberty Report
President Trump has signed an executive order declaring the synthetic opioid fentanyl to be a “weapon of mass destruction,” falsely claiming that it kills 200-300,000 Americans per year. We are back in 2002 Iraq War territory, with made up statistics and fear porn being used to grease the path to war.
What Are US Troops Guarding (And Dying For) In Syria?
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 15, 2025 | The Liberty Report
The killing of two US National Guard troops and one interpreter – and wounding of other US personnel – in Syria over the weekend forces once again the question: WHY are US troops STILL in Syria? What is their mission? How is it in the US national interest for them to be there? And WHY are we building yet ANOTHER base in Syria?
Ahoy! Pirate Trump Seizes Venezuelan Oil Tanker – ‘We’ll Keep The Oil!’
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 11, 2025 | The Liberty Report
Just one month after US CENTCOM condemned Iran for boarding a commercial vessel in international waters, the Trump Administration boarded and seized a Venezuelan oil tanker bound for Cuba and seized the cargo. Is this another provocation hoping for a Venezuelan response to kick off the war? Also today: Massie introduces bill to get out of NATO.
Desperation? US Sends Fighters Deep Into Gulf of Venezuela
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 10, 2025 | The Liberty Report
The US military sent two US Navy F/A-18 fighters deeper into Venezuela’s area of influence than ever before. They lingered near the coast for nearly an hour – tempting Venezuela to react and get the escalation? Meanwhile, US public support for military action is cratering and the Administration lacks the troops in the region for a ground invasion – even as President Trump ramps up the threats. What’s the endgame?
Another TRILLION Dollar NDAA Military Spending Bill!
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 9, 2025 | The Liberty Report
So much for the end of the US as world’s policemen. The 2026 National Defense Authorization Act includes another one trillion dollars in spending! Is this all about defending the American people…or protecting the military-industrial complex. And Ukraine’s Zelensky has refused to consider any concession of territory to end the war.
