Institute for Peace and Prosperity, Released on 11/27/23 Some libertarians dismiss concerns over social media companies’ suppression of news and opinions that contradict select agendas by pointing out that these platforms are private companies, not part of the government. There are two problems with this argument. First, there is nothing unlibertarian about criticizing private businesses […]
Institute for Peace and Prosperity, Released on 10/23/23 President Joe Biden announced last week that the United States would be funding – and possibly fighting – three wars in three different parts of the world at the same time.

Institute for Peace and Prosperity, Released on 8/7/23 Early in 2017, Senator Chuck Schumer stated that then-newly elected President Donald Trump was dumb to be antagonizing the intelligence community because “they have six ways from Sunday to get back at you.” Senator Schumer seems to have been onto something, given the possible involvement of US […]
