EPISODE 196: Freedom, CPAC, America and Winning the Next Election with Matt Schlapp

“America needs to come to terms with the reality and scale of the assault on free speech. Our government has established a vast system of censorship. By keeping it largely secret, it has been able to exert unconstitutional control over medical, scientific and political speech, suppressing debate over questions of great public importance. This is a shocking constitutional violation. All of us, not only the courts, need to recognize what is at stake.”

This is a different kind of episode of The Bill Walton Show. My guest is the charming and insightful polymath Carrie Sheffield who is a columnist and broadcaster now with the Independent Women’s Voice.

Sometimes, no it’s almost all the time, I wish I could spend more time playing the many sports I love to play.

But I don’t.

Instead, like most of us, I get caught up in organizations, politics, work, and all the other stuff that life seems to tee up.

For regular listeners, you know I like to take on complicated subjects, and try to make clear what’s at stake for all of us.
In this episode the Bill Walton Show we take a another deep dive into one of the most complicated and contentious areas of economic policy:
International trade.

A slew of financial crises that stretch all the way back to the banking Panic of 1907 have been exploited to justify erecting a financial regulatory system that has vastly centralized and expanded federal power over our money.
