While the media continues top push the phony narrative that right wing domestic terrorists are going to descend on state capitals, yesterday saw the emergence of actual left wing rioters in the form of Antifa, which attacked in Portland and Seattle. Federal property was reportedly targeted. Will the press report this as “domestic terrorism” as they reported on the 1/6 Capitol melee? And, more interestingly, as the rioters screamed anti-Biden slogans: will the Biden Administration move against this violence from its left flank? This and more in today’s Liberty Report:

The Surreal Inauguration
by Daniel McAdams | Jan 20, 2021 | The Liberty Report
As 25,000 US National Guard troops from across the country are deployed in a Washington, DC, that looks like a ghost town, surely one of the strangest US presidential inaugurations in history will take place. With DC as literally a military-occupied zone, protecting an empty city for a virtual inauguration, is this all security theater? A warning? A taste of things to come? Watch today’s Liberty Report:
The ‘Virtual’ Inauguration: Is The Threat Real, Or Overblown?
by Daniel McAdams | Jan 18, 2021 | The Liberty Report
Washington, DC has been turned into a war zone for this week’s “virtual” presidential inauguration, with 20,000 National Guard troops and mass closures of bridges, roads, and the Metro.

Trump Impeachment 2.0: Necessity Or Farce?
by Daniel McAdams | Jan 13, 2021 | The Liberty Report
After the January 6th mob ruckus inside the US Capitol building, the US House, led by Speaker Nancy Pelosi, rushed to put together articles of impeachment (again) for President Trump. Trump, they claim, led an insurrection on that day and must be held accountable. Constitutional law professor Jonathan Turley recently wrote in The Hill of the dangers of lowering the bar for impeachment. Do the House Democrats have a point that Trump must be removed from office days before he is removed from office, or is Impeachment 2.0 as much of a farce as Impeachment 1.0?

What’s Really Behind The Capitol Hill Chaos?
by Daniel McAdams | Jan 7, 2021 | The Liberty Report
Was it “treason”? A “coup attempt”? What happened on Capitol Hill yesterday? There is plenty of speculation about out-of-control Trump supporters – and Federal prosecutors are champing at the bit to begin prosecuting. Were there violent infiltrators who led the charge? Were there any other strange factors that deserve attention? We take a look at some of the various reports and examine the question “cui bono?” – who benefits? Watch today’s Liberty Report:

by Daniel McAdams | Jan 6, 2021 | The Liberty Report
Soon-to-be Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has Tweeted out this morning “Buckle up!” after Democrats appear to have won both Georgia US Senate seats. Shellshocked Republicans now face losses in both Houses of Congress and at the White House. Also today, Assange denied bail by UK judge – even though he faces no UK charges. Finally, as Iran hawks watch the sands of the Trump Administration run out, will their endless provocations finally bring their long-desired war? Today on the Liberty Report:
Reprieve? UK Judge Rejects Assange Extradition
by Daniel McAdams | Jan 4, 2021 | The Liberty Report
News that UK Judge Vanessa Baraitser ruled that Wikileaks founder Julian Assange cannot be extradited to the US to face espionage charges has shocked supporters and opponents alike. Keeping Assange out of the clutches of the notorious Eastern District of Virginia Federal Court may well have saved his life. However, the judge did not oppose the US position that Assange committed the crimes he is accused of committing. Baraitser only ruled that because of the way he has been treated – and would be treated in the future – in government custody, Assange is too much a suicide risk to be sent to the US. Is this “victory” without principles going to stand? Also today: What happened to the flu? Fauci warns of a nationwide California-ization. Amen? Watch today’s Liberty Report:

Why Are Hospital Workers So Afraid Of The Vaccine?
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 23, 2020 | The Liberty Report
Across the country hospital administrators are facing unexpected push-back from employees on the issue of the covid vaccine. More and more are refusing to take it, with at least one hospital CEO mentioning “mistrust” and fear. Why? Also today, poor Dr. Birx has had her feelings hurt over her family Thanksgiving trip.
