After a blissful month off we are back to our regular Democratic debate schedule (ugh) One night, ten candidates, one exhausted libertarian (I did manage to find a few bright spots but boy it wasn't easy) http://traffic.libsyn.com/jenthelibertarian/episode121.mp3
It's weekly roundup time, so its time to talk about the Odessa - Midland shooting (and what we do and do not know), the CIS rule change for children of US servicepeople who are born abroad (it's not as bad as it seems but it's complicated!), and the upcoming slate of Democratic primary debates both DNC sanctioned and not http://traffic.libsyn.com/jenthelibertarian/episode120.mp3
Ah yes, the infamous 1619 Project. I have read a good chunk of it (even past the first two essays) and have some thoughts on it and the reactions to it and the topic of discussing racism in America. Spolier alert - there are some good pieces in there you just have to make it past the crappy ones and not all conversations about racism are bad http://traffic.libsyn.com/jenthelibertarian/episode119.mp3
Bernie has got A Plan for reform all the criminal justice things, the Trump administration tries to "fix" the Flores agreement, and hold on to your butts because here come the 15% tariffs http://traffic.libsyn.com/jenthelibertarian/episode118.mp3
In my quest to reach out to the politically homeless I made a response to Bridget Phetasy's piece on the topic with (hopefully) helpful suggestions as to how libertarians can reach out to the ever increasing numbers of people leaving or being pushed out of their political parties Link to Bridget's piece - https://spectator.us/battle-cry-politically-homeless/ http://traffic.libsyn.com/jenthelibertarian/episode117.mp3
Time to talk about all the immigration stories, from the ICE workplaces raids from a week ago that got overshadowed to the new public charge rule and why it's really not OK to the ever evolving rules on who can and cannot apply for asylum in the US http://traffic.libsyn.com/jenthelibertarian/episode116.mp3
Picking up on the topic of red flag laws from the last episode, the idea of adding mental health history to the federal firearms background database, and the suicide heard 'round the world http://traffic.libsyn.com/jenthelibertarian/episode115.mp3
I discuss the Dayton shooting and what we do and do not know, how I am so insanely disappointed in the reactions to both the Dayton and El Paso shootings, and the awful no good horrible Castro tweet that named and shamed Trump donors http://traffic.libsyn.com/jenthelibertarian/episode114.mp3
