by Scott Horton | Dec 9, 2019
Florida Senator Rick Scott is lost in the dark. After Friday’s deadly Afghan war-style “green on blue” attack by a Saudi air force officer at the Pensacola Naval Air Station in Florida, the senator issued a statement calling the shooting an act of terrorism, and...

Death and Taxes? How About Life and Liberty? Join us as we build a better Institute.
by Scott Horton | Dec 5, 2019

Mind the Gap: A Strategy For Saying Libertarian Things
by Scott Horton | Nov 24, 2019
The Tenth Amendment Center's Michael Boldin calls it "the Horton rule." (It is my rule, but I didn't name it that.) It goes like this: Because libertarians are so dang good on everything -- better than the left on things the left is good on (e.g.: gays, drugs, cops,...
The Rule of Law or CIA Coup?
by Scott Horton | Nov 7, 2019
It's pretty obvious. Americans should support the impeachment and removal of President Donald Trump, but not for Ukrainegate. In fact, they should oppose his impeachment on Ukrainegate grounds completely. Trump’s real offense is waging an un-authorized,...
To End the Wars, Attack the Right From the Right
by Scott Horton | Oct 16, 2019
Sadly, the antiwar and anti-national security state inclinations of American liberals and progressives have weakened since the days of President George W. Bush. Partisan incentives during Barack Obama’s presidency combined with the FBI-CIA-Democratic Party-media plot...

Antiwar.com: Now What?
by Scott Horton | Jun 30, 2019
Reprinted from Antiwar.com. The question, “Now what?” seems appropriate today. First of all, R.I.P. Justin Raimondo. As Tom Woods said, Justin was the soul of this site. Despite popular misunderstanding, he was not the editor or webmaster (that’s me, Jason Ditz and...
Mueller Report: It Was All a Bunch of Nothing
by Scott Horton | Apr 20, 2019
Update: so no strangers around here get the wrong idea: Trump should be in the Supermax with Barack Obama for genocide in Yemen. Neither I nor the Institute have any partisan favor for or even against him. Just the same bias against all presidents, especially in...
FPF #254 – Close Call in the South China Sea
by Kyle Anzalone | Oct 3, 2018

The Great Ron Paul, Smeared Again
by Scott Horton | Jul 2, 2018
So a staffer working for Ron Paul made a terrible mistake today and tweeted out a picture which included very ugly stereotype caricatures of Jews, blacks and I'm not sure who-all. They deleted it immediately after followers replied pointing out the caricatures at the...

Blame Wilson
by Scott Horton | Apr 4, 2017
This article originally ran at Antiwar.com, April 23, 2005. “[America] goes not abroad, in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She is the champion and vindicator only of her own. She will commend the general...
