10/22/22 Patrick MacFarlane on the Populist Right’s Taiwan Hypocrisy

Scott is joined by Patrick MacFarlane, the Justin Raimondo Fellow at the Libertarian Institute, to discuss an article he wrote recently as well as the new direction he’s taking his podcast Vital Dissent. Scott and MacFarlane first dig into the growing tension between Washington and Beijing over Taiwan’s sovereignty. MacFarlane points out that some of the best opposition to both the policies that provoked Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and NATO’s subsequent response is from populist right-wingers. But those very same people throw all their logic out the window when the topic turns from Russia to China.

Discussed on the show:

– Nothing But Welfare Queens: American Aid to Zelensky and Tsai Ing-wen

– Vital Dissent

U.S. Accelerates Three-Tier Plan To Reduce Oil Prices

Tina Marie (Ms. Cat)

U.S. President Biden has three key strategies in place to lower oil prices.

– The first and foremost strategy is the implementation of the NOPEC bill.

– The second pillar of the plan is to release more crude from the U.S. SPR.

– The third element of the plan to bring oil prices down is to be a concerted effort to encourage U.S. oil firms, shale or otherwise, to increase their production.

Palestinian journalists are under attack by Israel lobby groups for reporting the truth from Palestine

Tina Marie (Ms. Cat)

Zionist watchdog groups have launched smear campaigns to silence the voices of Palestinian journalists, often causing many of them to lose their jobs. Will media organizations continue to allow such groups to dictate their journalism, or will they dare to be as fearless as the Palestinian journalists they claim to support?

House Progressives Swiftly Walk Back Letter Asking Biden to Pursue Russia Diplomacy

Tina Marie (Ms. Cat)

ON MONDAY MORNING, 30 members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus sent a letter to the White House that attempted to gingerly open a conversation about a potential diplomatic end to Russia’s war on Ukraine. The door was slammed shut by the evening, met with enough fury to elicit a “clarification” in the form of a statement from caucus Chair Pramila Jayapal.
