Bolton announced yesterday that the US was deploying a carrier strike force to the Middle East to convey the message to Iran that the US doesn’t want war. Makes perfect sense. So will a false flag be launched? Another provocation? In today’s Liberty Report we discuss the several extremely dangerous flash-points that may lead to war…

After designating Iran’s Revolutionary Guard a terrorist organization, will the US make a physical attempt to shut down any oil export by citing the oil business’s relationship with the Iranian Guard? Will Iran make good on its threat to shut down the Hormuz Straits, which would take out 20 percent of the oil from the world market? Clearly Trump’s sights are set on Iran. How far will he go?

Self-proclaimed Venezuelan president Juan Guaido’s coup yesterday failed to get off the ground. The military did not join him and protests were barely seen outside a few of Caracas’s wealthy neighborhoods. Frustrated and furious, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo responded by threatening direct US military action to overthrow President Maduro. An urgent call with Russian foreign minister is scheduled today. Are neocons about to ignite the earth? Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:

At dawn, US-backed and self-proclaimed president of Venezuela, Juan Guaido, announced the “final phase” of his coup against the Maduro government. While defections from the military are minor at this point, it is unknown whether the coup will reach critical mass. In the US, both Republicans and Democrats – who not long ago were furious over claims that the Russians have interfered in our elections – are cheering this US interference in Venezuelan elections. US neocons have joined the battle from the safety of their keyboards. Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:

Saudi Arabia recently executed 37, most of them Shiites, for, among other minor crimes participating in a political protest. At least two victims were under 18 at the time of their “crimes.” President Trump has spoken of our “shared values” with the Saudis. Is this what he means? Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:

A shock call from President Trump to head of the “Libyan National Army,” Khalifa Hafter, praising him for keeping the oil safe in eastern Libya, has upended US policy. Now the US supports both the UN-appointed government in Tripoli and Hafter’s forces fighting against it. What’s it all about? Iran, sanctions, Saudi Arabia, oil, and Israel. Who wins in this international proxy war…? Tune in to the Liberty Report:

Did John Bolton’s surprise arrival at the February Trump/Kim summit to propose the “Libya scenario” to the North Koreans drive Kim to seek other partners for negotiation? It is certainly plausible. Tomorrow’s Putin/Kim summit will likely have less fireworks, as the discussion is expected to center around trade and improving relations rather than delivering diktats and making demands. US foreign policy is in a crisis: Washington is no longer seen as a reliable partner. What does this mean for the Trump Administration? Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and National Security Advisor John Bolton have vowed to strangle Iran and cut off all oil exports. They claim it’s because of Iran’s pursuit of nuclear weapons and missiles and its support for terrorism. In a recent speech at Texas A&M University he finally told the truth about the CIA and the neocons – they lie and cheat and steal. So should we believe him now? Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:

Today’s extraordinary release of the Mueller Report tracks closely with Attorney General Barr’s recent summary: no collusion between the Trump campaign or any American with the Russians to help get Trump elected. Do not expect this to improve relations with Russia, however. There are poison pills in the report that ensure the push to war with Russia – in Europe, the Middle East, and Latin America – will continue.

Yesterday, President Trump vetoed his second bill as president. S. J. Res. 7 directed the president to cease US military activities in support of the Saudi war on Yemen and his veto signifies that he intends to continue in a war that he may not have started but that he is escalating. The White House statement on the veto is full of fallacies and contradictions. We take that apart – and share some idea on what we can do next – in today’s Liberty Report:

On his Latin American “overthrow Venezuela” tour, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo hammered China, accusing it of “prolonging” the regime by continuing to trade and invest with the Maduro government. The Chinese shot back at him over the preposterous claim, wondering out loud what many are wondering: has Pompeo lost his mind? Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:

The timing was hardly “coincidental.” Not long after a trip by Vice President Pence to “convince” Ecuador to hand over Julian Assange, a $4.2 billion IMF loan appears on the scene. Then Ecuador follows through and delivers the Wikileaks publisher to face the wrath of the US political establishment. The move was directly out of a US government “unconventional warfare’ playbook that, ironically, was released in 2008 by…Wikileaks! Join us for today’s Liberty Report:
