President Trump’s decision to deploy more US troops (and more failed Patriot Missile batteries) signals the US Administration’s continuing determination to back Saudi Arabia in its aggressive war against Yemen. But what does it mean that the mighty US air superiority has been defeated by a few cheap drones and missiles? The illusion of dominance. Should we be engaging further in the Middle East…or is it time to come home? Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:

The Moral/Political Corrosion Of Negative Interest Rates, With Guest Jeff Deist
by Daniel McAdams | Sep 19, 2019 | The Liberty Report
The approach of negative interest rates in the US will transport us into a truly bizarro world where up is down and spending is saving. But it’s not only an economic issue – there is a moral and political corrosion of our society that comes with negative interest rates. Mises Institute President Jeff Deist joins today’s Liberty Report:
Trump Names New National Security Advisor – Bolton Without The Mustache?
by Daniel McAdams | Sep 18, 2019 | The Liberty Report
President Trump has named Robert O’Brien, who served as foreign affairs advisor to Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign, as his replacement for fired National Security Advisor John Bolton. O’Brien is cut from the exact same neoconservative cloth as Bolton and represents, at most, change in style and physical appearance. With pressure mounting on Trump to attack Iran after unproven accusations that it was involved in an attack on Saudi oil facilities, the President’s national security team may find itself without allies in the effort. Will O’Brien put the brakes on Trump’s neocons…or will he hit the accelerator? Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:
Credibility Crisis: No One Believes Iran Attacked Saudi Arabia
by Daniel McAdams | Sep 17, 2019 | The Liberty Report
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was sure of who was responsible for the attack on Saudi oil facilities shortly after the attack. Neocons followed suit, one by one blaming Iran and calling for the war they’ve been drooling over for years. But not only are Washington’s European partners skeptical of the claims – even Gulf allies are not outright blaming Iran. Lies grease the wheels of the war machine and with the latest attack the grease is flowing freely. What will Trump do? Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:
‘Locked And Loaded’ – Will Trump Attack Iran?
by Daniel McAdams | Sep 16, 2019 | The Liberty Report
After Saturday’s attacks on Saudi oil facilities, President Trump Tweeted that the US is “locked and loaded” and ready to do whatever Saudi Arabia deems appropriate to whoever the Saudis blame for the attack. Will Trump let the Saudis dictate when and where the United States goes to war? Who did it and why? Evidence? False flag? So many questions. Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:
With Bolton Out, Will Trump Open Door To Iran?
by Daniel McAdams | Sep 12, 2019 | The Liberty Report
The last straw that broke Trump’s back with Bolton appears to be the latter’s vehement opposition to any kind of opening toward Iran. Suddenly a French proposal for a way out of the stand-off is being talked about by Trump and Pompeo. Will Trump find a way to ease tensions and open a new chapter with Iran, or will the whole thing fizzle in bluster? Watch today’s Liberty Report:
Will Another John Bolton Replace John Bolton?
by Daniel McAdams | Sep 11, 2019 | The Liberty Report
Bolton may be gone, but Boltonism lives on. Those believing that the end of Bolton would signal a return to the foreign policy of candidate Donald Trump, however, may be disappointed. President Trump has appointed Charles Kupperman to temporary fill in for John Bolton as National Security Advisor. Kupperman is one of Bolton’s closest friends and allies in Washington. Plus – What have we learned since 9/11? Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:
Is America Doomed? Any Options Left?
by Daniel McAdams | Sep 10, 2019 | The Liberty Report
Is America incapable of going back to the “good old days” where we understood what it means to live in a constitutional republic and defended our liberties against all enemies, foreign and domestic? A new article from Michael Snyder cites plenty of polling data suggesting a grim future for freedom lovers. But there may be hope for the future after all. Watch today’s Liberty Report:
Bolton And Pompeo Beat Down Trump’s Afghan Peace Deal
by Daniel McAdams | Sep 9, 2019 | The Liberty Report
Snatching war from the jaws of peace, the long-worked on peace deal negotiated between the US and Taliban leaders has apparently been tossed into the trash can and the US will return to its 18 year losing battle in Afghanistan. The deal’s demise was blamed on an apparent Taliban car bomb, but there may be much more to it than that. Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:
USS Gerald Ford – A $13 Billion Boondoggle
by Daniel McAdams | Sep 4, 2019 | The Liberty Report
The US Navy’s newest aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald Ford, is so over-budget and riddled with errors that it’s practically useless. Never is it asked whether we need such a ship for the defense of this country. It is about spending and maintaining steady growth in the defense industry. Our own safety and security are completely irrelevant to the military spending juggernaut. And it’s not just this carrier. Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:

by Daniel McAdams | Sep 3, 2019 | The Liberty Report
The Pentagon has unveiled a new plan to combat record high military suicides, including more government bureaucracy and record-collecting.

Beware (And Prepare): The American Empire Is Collapsing
by Daniel McAdams | Sep 2, 2019 | The Liberty Report
When empires fall, they do not go down gracefully. The collapse is sudden and the consequences are permanent. Like the schoolyard bully who is finally defeated, his former victims and enemies revel in his fall. The US empire is now teetering on such a collapse. The signs are all around us. Aggressive US foreign policy, self-destructive monetary policy that debases the currency and hides inflation, a monstrous national and individual debt load. The writing is on the wall and the wise are preparing. What can we do? Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:
