What's wrong with the Libertarian Party? ft. Joseph Bishop-Henchman & Andy Craig
06/03/22 • 52 min
The Libertarian Party has been taken over by a white nationalist group - how did this happen? Former LNC chairman Joseph Bishop-Henchman and Andy Craig of the CATO Institute join the show to discuss what's gone wrong with the Libertarian Party. We talk about how this takeover happened, the history of racism in the libertarian movement, and what principled libertarians should do now that the alt-right has control of the nation's biggest libertarian organization.

Preventing Gun Violence ft. Congressman Brad Schneider
With the recent wave of shootings across America, what can be done to address the violence? Congressman Brad Schneider joins the podcast to talk about several ways to reduce gun violence and hate crimes. We talk first about his Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act, which aims to prevent white-supremacist violence like the recent shooting in Buffalo, NY. Why is this bill needed, what will it do, and how does Rep. Schneider respond to comparisons to the Patriot Act? We also discuss the ongoing conversations happening around gun control - What types of gun regulations could actually make a difference? Can something actually make it through the Senate? All this and more as we try to unravel one of America's most heated and most pressing political questions.
