President Trump’s Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, is driving the US closer to war with Russia over Turkey’s land grab in northern Syria. While Trump talks about removing US troops from the Middle East, Pompeo has turned his State Department into a second White House and second Pentagon to launch his own foreign policy. Will Trump continue to allow Pompeo to run the show? Watch today’s Liberty Report:

A Military Distraction? US Hands Ukraine $125 Million In Weapons
by Daniel McAdams | Mar 9, 2020 | The Liberty Report
In yet another example of President Trump continuing the bad policies of President Obama, the Administration announced it would grant $125 million in new anti-artillery radar and military patrol ships to Ukraine. Maybe a military distraction will take minds off of rocky financial waters and a coronavirus that has the world in a panic? Watch the Liberty Report:

by Daniel McAdams | Mar 5, 2020 | The Liberty Report
Three provisions of the USA PATRIOT Act are set to expire on March 15th and many in Congress are scrambling to keep government surveillance of innocent Americans alive. Others are pushing for reform.

Another Trump Flip-Flop: US To Send Money And Weapons To Syria Rebels
by Daniel McAdams | Mar 4, 2020 | The Liberty Report
After a brief discussion of yesterday’s “Super Tuesday” and what it may mean for the markets, today’s Liberty Report will look into yet another round of US interference in the nine year war in Syria. While the Trump Administration has thus far avoided direct engagement with Russian and Syrian troops, yesterday a US official illegally crossed into Syria to announce a hundred million dollars in US aid. Earlier the US announced it would be sending more weapons to the Turks, who are embedded with al-Qaeda in Idlib province. As before, these weapons will end up in the hands of al-Qaeda.

‘Saigon Moment’? Afghanistan Deal Means Rapid US Withdrawal
by Daniel McAdams | Mar 3, 2020 | The Liberty Report
Will the just-signed Afghanistan deal mean a rapid US departure (after 19 years of war)? What about the “secret annexes” that Pompeo has admitted are in the agreement? How long will the US-backed Afghanistan government hold without US troops? Watch today’s Liberty Report:
Pompeo Wants Missiles For Turkey…To Confront Russia In Syria
by Ron Paul | Mar 2, 2020 | The Liberty Report
When Turkey found itself in a bit of trouble in Idlib, Syria last week – a Syrian army advance had taken back much of the province and a Syrian air force strike had killed Turkish soldiers embedded with jihadist fighters – Ankara signaled to Washington that it needed help, including Patriot Missile batteries on Turk soil. The response was cool from the Pentagon, but Pompeo’s State Department is all for it – even if it means war with Russia and Iran. Today on the Liberty Report:
US Troops Back To Saudi Arabia – To Provoke Iran?
by Daniel McAdams | Feb 27, 2020 | The Liberty Report
For the first time in 17 years, US troops are moving back to Prince Sultan Airbase in Saudi Arabia. The troops were removed in 2003 because they were serving as a recruiting tool for al-Qaeda. The Trump Administration claims they are returning to “deter” Iran…but are they telling the truth? Watch today’s Liberty Report:
Trillion Dollar Nuke ‘Upgrade’ – Not An Arms Race?
by Daniel McAdams | Feb 26, 2020 | The Liberty Report
The Trump Administration continues to spend billions developing and “upgrading” the nuclear weapons arsenal, claiming at the same time that it’s in response to Russian moves and that it’s “not an arms race.” Is there solid evidence to back US claims…or is this just another high-paid jobs program for the military-industrial complex?

Let The Assange Show (Trial) Begin
by Daniel McAdams | Feb 25, 2020 | The Liberty Report
As the second day of the extradition hearing for Wikileaks founder Julian Assange continues in London, the lines of argumentation of both sides are taking shape. While the US tries to argue that Wikileaks publishing harmed individuals who aided the US government, there is little evidence to back the claim. Will the UK courts roll over for a Washington that would like to see, as former FBI Director Comey suggested, “Assange’s head on a pike”? Watch today’s Liberty Report:
Chaos Abounds! Coronavirus; Assange; Financial Markets; Sanders Under Attack
by Daniel McAdams | Feb 24, 2020 | The Liberty Report
Will the “bipartisan consensus” in Washington blame the coronavirus for the coming economic downturn? Why does the US media seem so uninterested in Julian Assange’s extradition hearing today? Today’s Liberty Report is all about the chaos exploding all around us… Watch today’s Liberty Report:
Send In The Clowns: Deconstructing The Nevada Democrat Debate
by Daniel McAdams | Feb 20, 2020 | The Liberty Report
President Trump must have been thrilled at the horrible circus that was the Democratic Party debate in Las Vegas last night. Rather than offer substance, it descended into a cacophony of accusations and insults. Bloomberg himself remarked that the whole thing would only end up getting more votes for Trump.
