Similar protests are popping up around the world in places where ordinary people are being treated like second-class citizens. As they see the comparative level of danger go down with Omicron, and new treatments going online, they wonder why their leaders insist on acting as if it's still March of 2021.

LR Podcast, S2E39: Defeat the Mandates
Coverage and summary of the Defeat the Mandates DC march. The rally was organized primarily by outspoken critics of the mandates, Doctors Robert Malone and Peter McCullah. It was MC'd by J.P. Sears, a very funny libertarian comedian.
Good for Whom?
Altruism seems good, even Biblical, but cannot serve as a code of ethics. The problem with altruism isn't that self-sacrifice is bad, it's that it allows society, not the individual, to make the call on who is required to sacrifice their own best interests and why. Society is the majority, and altruism makes one's actions subject to the need of the collective.
LR Podcast, S2E20: Biden’s Authoritarian Speech
Wow! In one paragraph, Biden goes full authoritarian, shredding both the concept of Federalism and the separation of powers according to the Constitution. For a member of the party always screaming– “Democracy! Democracy! Democracy!” he doesn’t sound like he’s very into democracy here, does he?
LR Podcast S2E12: Why is conservatism better? Pt 2
Perhaps the best commercial for American Conservatism are the anti-communist demonstrations currently in Cuba, where people have taken to the streets waving the American flag. They're not waving the EU flag, the BLM flag, or the Soviet flag, they're waving the American flag, knowing full well the ideals of liberty and freedom it embodies. Truly oppressed people recognize that the ideals held by American conservatives are intrinsically pro-freedom, anti-oppression.
LR Podcast #50: The Historic 50th Episode!
For the life so far of the podcast, our liberties have been under threat, particularly since the beginning of the COVID-19 crisis. It was surprising in some cases, just how easily some of our Constitutional rights such as the freedom of religion were lost.
LR Podcast Episode #45 The Trust Gap
Cancel culture comes for Dr. Seuss, but there's a more nuanced perspective to the whole thing.
Biden has a low opinion of Neanderthals and people who value freedom.
They lack the imagination to conceive of a people who value freedom more than a little temporary safety. The obvious implication is that the people who voted for the governors of TX and MS are not smart enough to make decisions for themselves and accept the consequences.
LR Podcast #16: Life, Liberty, and Trivial Pursuits
In the latest episode of the Liberty Relearned podcast, I talk about how the left took the low road when it came to the death of the President's brother, Robert Trump. I then talk about Joe Biden picking Kamala "don't call me Kamila" Harris for his running-mate.
