Wow! Javier Milei won! Hard to overstate how huge this is. I know he’s not perfect and who knows what obstacles he will still have to overcome, but a presidential candidate winning on a bold libertarian populist message lays the groundwork for what is possible.

Yes, the local McDonald's is hiring and can't seem to keep employees.

I'm friends with quite a few guys who fought in the terror wars. Some of them saw and participated in some very hard fighting, killed people they wished they hadn't and saw their friends killed right next to them. But the only guys I know who have been bombed and strafed from above like what is happening to the Palestinians now, are my friends from the USS Liberty, also ruthlessly attacked by treacherous Israel back in 1967. 34 were killed 171 wounded. I've gotten to know a few of the Liberty vets, and will have Joe Meadors back on the show here soon to talk about it. But I can tell you that these men – trained fighting-aged males at the time – have carried such pain, trauma, shell shock, humiliation and betrayal with them all these years – 56 years. Some of them were nearly completely broken by it. Their lives were just ruined. They still have nightmares beyond the worst thing you could imagine. This is what the USA is helping the Israelis do to the civilians of Gaza now. As Ron Paul wisely warned us years ago. If the American people continue to allow our government, and its clients, to continue to rampage around the world, killing innocent people like this, in the most brutal ways, then we continue to allow it at our own peril. All these years since Camp Casey, we've wondered "Where's the antiwar left?" Now that they're back, rightwingers are afraid of getting a little antifa spilled on their shirt or something, and some are now forgetting about America First! in favor of supporting Israel's slaughter of Indians in their pen. How vicariously exciting. Nuts to that! With a solid America First! antiwar right and the return of the antiwar left from their long Dem-induced slumber, we have a chance to finally build a consensus against the American empire and war machine. It's wrong. We cannot afford it. It causes blowback terrorism against our people. It threatens our liberty and prosperity. Enough Already. It's time to end all American intervention in Europe, the Middle East, East Asia and Latin America too. As Jean Kirkpatrick once said – when she was decent for a minute between wars – let us eschew the burdens of Superpower status, stop killing people, and return to being a normal country in a normal time. #AmericaFirst!

Reminder: monopolies require government protection or they collapse under their own inefficiencies. There are no corporate subsidies, legal exclusions, Certificates of Need, or no-bid government contracts in a free market.

You literally spend an inordinate amount of time on this app advocating for numerous government monopolies backed by the threat of state violence.

DOJ needs to sue themselves!
The DOJ is suing @elonmusk and @SpaceX for focusing their hiring on US citizens and permanent residents. Do you know who else advertises that only US citizens can apply for a job? The DOJ. marginalrevolution.com/margi…

OK, I'll play the "but what if COVID was 1000 times deadlier than it actually is" game: If COVID had a 100% fatality rate, and the vaccine for it was as effective as the current one is, we'd all end up dead anyway. And if the vaccine for it were actually effective, you wouldn't need a mandate for it, because the vast majority of people would take it to avoid certain death. Mandates are stupid and create more problems.

It’s so bizarre to me that calling someone an incel has become the go to insult. Especially since it’s usually calling someone out for being immature, but what could be a more immature response than “you don’t even get laid.” Sounds like something a 16 yr old would say.

Trump was vulnerable at the beginning of the race. A lot of people wanted something new and he seemed out of step with his base. He was bragging about how great the vaccine was and getting booed. The legal system being weaponized against him solidified him as the front runner.
