The two-plus year great hoax has come to an end. Trump is not Putin’s puppet, as the vast majority of the mainstream media and Democrats have claimed. There was no “collusion” with Russia. So after so much wasted time and money, where do US/Russia relations stand and where should they be heading? What does it mean for the Venezuela regime change operation?

‘Shock & Awe’? 16 Years Later, Who Won The Iraq War?
by Daniel McAdams | Mar 21, 2019 | The Liberty Report
This week marks 16 years since the US attacked an Iraq that had neither attacked nor threatened us. Claims that Iraq had WMDs were lies and the Bush Administration knew they were lies. So 16 years later who is coming out on top after the US attack? Here’s a hint: the most unintended of consequences. Today on the Liberty Report:
Trump Wants Brazil In NATO…To Help Oust Maduro?
by Daniel McAdams | Mar 20, 2019 | The Liberty Report
Less than a month after Brazil made it clear that it wants no part in a military invasion of neighboring Venezuela, its president, Jair Bolsonaro, is in Washington this week to be feted by Trump and his neocon advisors. First stop was an unprecedented visit to the CIA for a “briefing” on Venezuela. Then it was off to a visit with Trump, where the US president promised at the least a path to NATO membership for the South American country. Are the neocons turning Bolsonaro in favor of an attack on Venezuela? Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:
Trump’s Record Spy Budget – What Do We Really Get For $86 Billion?
by Daniel McAdams | Mar 19, 2019 | The Liberty Report
The Trump Administration has requested a huge increase in the US spy budget, including a whopping $23 billion for the “black” budget. The reasons given are the increasing threats from Russia and China. Does all this spy spending really protect us…or is it just welfare for the Beltway bandits and scaremongers?

Trump To Leave 1,000 Troops In Syria? What’s The Strategy?
by Daniel McAdams | Mar 18, 2019 | The Liberty Report
Over the weekend the Wall Street Journal reported that the Trump Administration had decided to keep 1,000 US military personnel stationed (illegally) in Syria, even though just three months ago the president said he would be bringing home all US troops in the country. That was followed by an announcement that 200, then 400, would remain. What’s the point of the US occupation of part of Syria – especially now that al-Qaeda/ISIS is defeated?

Senate Votes To End Yemen War…Will Trump Veto?
by Daniel McAdams | Mar 14, 2019 | The Liberty Report
The Senate has passed “war powers” legislation ordering the president to cease and desist his cooperation with Saudi Arabia in the destruction of Yemen. A House vote is expected soon, which would throw the issue to the president who has promised a veto. Will there be political fallout for a president failing to accede to the will of Congress on matters of war and peace? Tune in to the Liberty Report:
Rep. Ilhan Omar: Riding The Third Rail – With Guest Phil Giraldi
by Daniel McAdams | Mar 13, 2019 | The Liberty Report
Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar (MN) has stirred up both political parties with her comments on the Israel Lobby, has infuriated the Republicans with her aggressive line of questioning for Trump’s “regime change” expert Elliott Abrams, and has driven the Democrats mad with her criticisms of Barack Obama. Is she on the right track, or off the rails? Today on the Liberty Report:
War Drums: US Diplomats Ordered Home From Venezuela
by Daniel McAdams | Mar 12, 2019 | The Liberty Report
Secretary of State Pompeo has ordered all US diplomats to return from Venezuela. Their presence in country is “constraining” US foreign policy, he says. Is this the pre-cursor to a US attack? What about the power outages in Venezuela? A US cyber-attack? Are the neocons about to pull the trigger? Former US Diplomat and Senior Advisor to Senate Republicans Jim Jatras joins today’s Liberty Report:
Manafort To Jail – Not About Justice; Not About Russia
by Daniel McAdams | Mar 11, 2019 | The Liberty Report
Former Trump campaign official Paul Manafort has been sentenced to nearly four years in prison for acting as an unregistered agent for Ukraine. But looking at the media coverage of the case one would never know that “taking down” Manafort was not all about Russia collusion. Reporting…or propaganda? Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:
Did The NSA Kill Its Program To Spy On Us…Or Upgrade It?
by Daniel McAdams | Mar 7, 2019 | The Liberty Report
A surprise revelation from a staffer in House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy’s (R-CA) office has everyone talking about whether the NSA has really ended its metadata collection of our phone calls and texts, which was authorized by the 2015 USA FREEDOM Act. They say they no longer need the data collection allowed by the Act. Is it true…or have they developed something else? Tune in to the Liberty Report…
Is John Bolton The New Dick Cheney?
by Daniel McAdams | Mar 6, 2019 | The Liberty Report
President George W. Bush’s vice president, Dick Cheney, is widely seen as the “real” president when it came to implementing an aggressive, neocon-approved foreign policy. Bush was seen as incurious putty in Cheney’s hands. Has Trump’s National Security Advisor John Bolton taken on that role in this Administration? Is Bolton the new Cheney?

Guaido Not Arrested In Venezuela – Rubio And Bolton Outraged!
by Daniel McAdams | Mar 5, 2019 | The Liberty Report
US neocons Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), Vice President Pence, and National Security Advisor John Bolton were all itching to see the Maduro government arrest US-appointed “president” of Venezuela Juan Guaido when he returned from his tour of US-friendly Latin American countries. They had all sprung a trap and it all depended on the Venezuelan government arresting Guaido. But Maduro did not fall for the bait. This is the second US coup attempt that has failed in the last month. What will be the neocons’ V-Coup 3.0? Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:
