On today's episode of The Brian Nichols Show, I am joined by Elias Atienza. Elias is a fourth year history major at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, who is an opinion writer for his school newspaper Mustang News. He interned at the Daily Caller News Foundation and YAF's National Journalism Center over the summer where he wrote primarily on politics and foreign policy. His writings have appeared in TheBlaze, Red Alert Politics section of Washington Examiner, Independent Journal Review, Daily Caller, The Libertarian Republic, and others.

Listen as we discuss the news that Republican Senator Rand Paul broke ranks and endorsed Libertarian senatorial candidate in New Mexico, former Governor Gary Johnson. Later, we discuss Trump's foreign policy thus far in his first-term, and conclude by discussing the Kurdish Independence Movement.
