In this special episode of Good Morning Liberty, host Nate Thurston tackles a Tuesday edition of 'Dumb Bleep of the Week' due to the upcoming Thanksgiving break. With the usual co-host Charlie Thompson absent, Nate dives into recent climate news, including an appearance from Neil deGrasse Tyson on the Bill Maher show, discussing misinformation and media bias. He highlights the incoherence of Neil deGrasse Tyson's statements on scientific objectivity in social issues and shares his disapproval of California's exclusion of Tesla from EV credits. Nate also critiques the media's claims about Twitter/X becoming a right-wing echo chamber, Joe Walsh's take on Ukraine/Russia, and tariffs proposed by Donald Trump. Finally, Nate shares insights on a new university prioritizing merit over diversity, the U.S. Labor Secretary pick, and concludes with a preview for Thanksgiving dinner costs. Tune in and be a part of the 'Fed Hater's Club' to vote on the week's most absurd moments.

No libertarians in Trump's Cabinet. Did Libertarians "Sell Out" for Nothing? || EP 1418

James Erwin joins Josh to discuss his experiences working on the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program as a staffer for Senator Susan Collins on Capitol Hill. They discuss how this massive bill and others like it get created, the near impossibility of creating a one size fits all bill that works for all the different states. Also, the different priorities of the Republican and Democrat Senators and staffers that turned a straightforward state block-grant program into a contradictory labyrinth of competing interests.  Then ultimately, how the Biden administration attempted to hijack the program during its implementation.    James' article in National Review: <a href= "https://www.nationalreview.com/2024/11/bidens-broadband-bust/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl= "https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.nationalreview.com/2024/11/bidens-broadband-bust/&source=gmail&ust=1732468186499000&usg=AOvVaw2UtWDLSJQwIj3Dqh4gWZl3"> https://www.nationalreview.com/2024/11/bidens-broadband-bust/</a>   Follow James work at Americans for Tax Reform: <a href="https://atr.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl= "https://www.google.com/url?q=https://atr.org/&source=gmail&ust=1732468186499000&usg=AOvVaw275X1aAk4n7GDMF3ypNvpr"> https://atr.org/</a>   Follow James on X: <a href= "https://x.com/erwin1854?s=21&t=S8JoQpY3m4n6bFrTo8tLrg" target= "_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl= "https://www.google.com/url?q=https://x.com/erwin1854?s%3D21%26t%3DS8JoQpY3m4n6bFrTo8tLrg&source=gmail&ust=1732468186499000&usg=AOvVaw2NkP-7ScJUfpS5D2zBzjFs"> https://x.com/erwin1854?s=21&t=S8JoQpY3m4n6bFrTo8tLrg</a> (01:17) James Erwin's Background and Career Path (04:08) Experiences on Capitol Hill (04:36) Legislative Process and Staff Roles (11:45) Conflicting Priorities in Legislation (13:24) Republican and Democratic Agendas (15:49) Impact of Government-Owned Networks (23:46) Starlink and the Need for Competition (24:13) Republican and Democrat Approaches to Broadband Policy (24:34) Lobbyists and Career Paths in Politics (26:30) Libertarian Perspective on Government and Business (31:23) Challenges of a National Broadband Policy (33:31) The Impact of Price Controls on Broadband (41:40) Current State of the Broadband Bill (44:38) Final Thoughts and Call to Action

Dumb BLEEP of the Week! (ATACMS, Racism, Alan Lichtman & More) || EP 1416

In this episode of the Good Morning Liberty podcast, hosts Charles Chuck Thompson and Nathaniel Paul Thurston dive into the latest political and world events. They discuss the escalating conflict between Russia and Ukraine, specifically focusing on Ukraine's accusations against Russia for launching an intercontinental ballistic missile. The conversation also touches on President Biden's administration's controversial decisions that could lead to dire consequences, such as the use of long-range missiles by Ukraine to strike Russia. Additionally, the hosts cover the recent allegations against Matt Gaetz, his withdrawal from consideration as Trump's Attorney General pick, and the ongoing political maneuvers in Washington. The episode rounds off with a discussion on whether political distractions, like debates on transgender bathroom usage, are overshadowing critical global issues.
