  • The Liberty Conspiracy Audio Pod, for 5-15-25!

    Greetings, fellow Conspirators!

    Tonight, on Liberty Conspiracy Live, we dig into the farcical claim by Donald Trump that his centrally-planned price controls on pharmaceuticals are going to be beneficial. His tariffs against China will raise costs for domestic drug makers, hitting the prices of component chemicals or finished drugs and pushing up prices by at least 25%, so he is imposing price controls, and being applauded by so-called “conservatives” for doing so. We also look at the peace talks between the US and Iran (otherwise known as the US threatening Iran and then claiming that Trump’s team is “negotiating” with Iran), and the peace talks between Russia and Ukraine. Plus, key info on so-called “regulations” imposed on cars and your freedom to buy what you want and travel the way you want - expert thoughts on the industry and on freedom, from Eric Peters of EricPetersAutosDotCom and found here on X! Join us and dip into scholarship on economics and philosophy, the US Constitution, and history!

    Tonight, we dive into the breaking news and the “debate” about El Trumpo accepting the Qatari gift of a mega-expensive jumbo jet. People like Chuck Schumer are upset (when they aren’t counting the “campaign cash” they get from special interest groups), and others are wondering how this accords with their US Constitution. Beyond that, how about the anti-ethics of someone accepting a “gift” from a nation that played home to the leadership of the purported “terrorist group” (however the politicians want to define that) which both the US and Israel made sure stayed in power in Gaza, that being Hamas? Curious. And how about the problem of tying taxpayers to the upkeep of that “gift” (made by Boeing, by the way)… Then, key info on the pop media covering up their complicity in hiding Joe Biden’s mental decline, and key information on Trump meeting with new Syrian “leader” al Jolani/Sharaa, who was on the “Most Wanted” list just a couple of months ago, and who new is praised by Trump… And we are joined by Knights of the Storm member, Karen Carpenter, who gives us a follow-up on the disastrous California (and also in other places) government creation of “electric power storage” facilities where the fires that already have occurred have given off toxic fumes and which are getting more money from the government’s “green agenda” - plus key info on the upcoming Russia-Ukraine peace talks in Istanbul and key info on new immigration debates in the US!

  • The Liberty Conspiracy Audio Pod, for 5-13-25!

    Welcome, fellow Conspirators!

    Join the Conspiracy M-F at 6 PM on Rumble X @gardgoldsmith and visit the Gardner Goldsmith Substack for more news and research to support liberty! Tonight, we shed light on the Donald Trump speech about the Mid-East that has inspired many people to think he might be leaning away from US “nation-building” and hegemonic militarism. But the deal with Saudi Arabia he has announced leaves many questions unanswered. For example (as we asked in today’s News Notes) is this a TREATY? If not, how is it constitutionally valid? Even if it were constitutional, would Trump have a right to include any of us in his “deals” with other political oppressors? The Constitution and deeper ethics are being overlooked, here, and it’s worth exploring the big new matter! We also look at the Trump team claiming it doesn’t need to afford Habeas Corpus or due process, as it flies kidnap victims to other nations, and as the first PRIVATE airline is named as one of the transportation companies Trump is using to deport people to — we don’t know, because the PRIVATE company is in a fascist relationship with the feds and doesn’t feel compelled to reveal that information. All that, and big news from the economic front on tariffs and how much they have bitten into equities! Check it out! ROCK ON!

    Welcome, fellow Conspirators!

    Tonight, on the program, we celebrate the Coke Train Politicians and their utter hypocrisy, we dig into the latest on the Trump Train as some of Trump’s “negotiators” work around the Zionistas and get some key agreements from the government of Saudi Arabia and a key hostage release from Hamas. The Israeli government has shown utter disdain for the hostages held by Hamas, and many Zionists in the US are showing the same. Then, we dive into the immigration fight, seeing how the US presence in NJ - running a detention facility there - runs contrary to the US Constitution, and contrary to basic ethics. Plus, big info on Trump’s Executive Order to “lower drug costs” (not the kind Marcon and Starmer seem to like) and how it likely will restrict research and will see costs for drugs outside his EO rise. PLUS, key memories of Russia< Europe and Ukraine re the May 8-9 Victory celebrations, and your takes!

    The "ceasefire" between India and Pakistan that Trump announced earlier today? Already broken. It would be cool if the government of Pakistan weren't such a plaything of US CIA/State Department whim. When Nuland arrived there a couple years ago, they ousted Khan, and the Pakistani government/terror cells have really kicked up the antagonism against India. The whole place carries the dark vestiges of UK colonialism and arbitrary border creation. Here's the LINK!

    India Accuses Pakistan of Violation of Cease-Fire Brokered by U.S. - MSN

    Hours after India and Pakistan agreed to a cease-fire that aimed to end the worst violence between the two nuclear-armed rivals in years, Indian officials accused Islamabad of violating the pact.

    This one blows me away. If Biden had done this to hide information from conservative critics who might want information about Biden's immigration policies and practices, the MAGA media would be livid. This adds a new layer of soot on the ashen remnants of the Constitution they've burned so well. Not only is the federal government involved in an unconstitutional "policing" of immigration, not only are they not providing due process, and not only are they inside states when they have not been invited, as Article Four, Section Four requires, they NOW try to categorize a foreign gang as "terrorists" and THEN invoke the STATE SECRETS ACT to hide information from the judicial branch and opponents in legal disputes! Here's the LINK!

    Trump administration invokes state secrets privilege in Abrego Garcia case - MSN

    The administration's assertion of the privilege was revealed in an order from U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis, which asked lawyers for Abrego Garcia and the Justice Department to file additional ...

    www.msn.com

    At my Substack Friday, I added this re the ethics of it all:

    "...the idea of 'state secretss reaffirms the absurdity that you will be forced to pay for dark figures to engage in additional predation and then claim that they don’t have to tell you about it.”

    Here is some key info, from the linked article:

    “The administration's assertion of the privilege was revealed in an order from U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis, which asked lawyers for Abrego Garcia and the Justice Department to file additional legal papers about the administration's ‘invocations of privilege, principally the state secrets and deliberative process privileges.’

    Xinis gave the two sides until Monday to submit the filings ‘addressing the legal and factual bases for the invocation of those privileges,’ including a request from Abrego Garcia's lawyers for the court to conduct a review of ‘the withheld documents.’ The judge also set a hearing for May 16 at the courthouse in Greenbelt, Maryland.”

    It seems clear that this “state secrets” invocation is an attempt to shield the Administration from being exposed as utterly lawless and that it had no reason to arrest Abrego Garcia, that he had no violent criminal convictions, and they knew it. s much as many MAGA folks want to claim Garcia is a bad guy, there has to be a standard in jurisprudence, and he has not been convicted of a violent criminal offense. Even if he had been that has nothing to do with the federal government. This is such a basic syllogism, it confounds me that self-described "conservatives" so willingly disregard it.

    And, an AZ resident who has lived in the US for decades, and fought for the US in Iraq, has been deported, because he had drug conviction info on the books from over a decade ago. The federalization of the drug laws is another insult to the Founders, and many conservatives were starting to see the logic in keeping those statutes under the control of states, aligning with federalism. But they toss that aside when the "drug law breach" can be used by the feds to snatch a guy away from his life, his job, and his home for decades. Here is the LINK!

    Finally (one could go on with a dozen examples of egregious lawlessness by the ICA, Border Patrol, FBI triad re immigration) this one touches on not only the fact that the government of NJ has not invited the feds in, this runs into the clear strictures in the US Constitution that the feds only can own/run three forms of land — a 10 square-mile area for a national capitol, military garrisons, and territories -- and this "detention facility" isn't one of them. This man is in the right, on every level, but "conservatives" are heaping scorn on him. Here's the LINK!

    One of the most reliable sources of info on petrochemical energy, the American Energy Institute, has informed curious Americans that The Hartford Group has refused to renew its insurance, because AEI does not conform to its "climate" polices (ESG).

It has been at the mercy of federal powers since as far back as 2009.

As a rocking opener, I recommend “Fishing” as a dark, well-composed crime tale with some very unusual turns (this contains some scenes of dark violence, so please, be warned)…

    …Or feel free to get “Bite” for a different take on vampirism, and “Wall” for a cryptoarcheological adventure set in 1960s China. And I have three novels and two more novellas in their final editing phases, soon to be on the way!

    Welcome, fellow Conspirators!

    Join the Conspiracy, M-F at 6 PM on Rumble and X @gardgoldsmith! Tonight, we present a special program focusing on the theses about contemporary US/EU/UK fascism/collectivism, economic distress, and warmongering one might derive from looking at the historic celebration of V-E Day today in Russia. The stunning antagonism of European Union figures, the lack of respect by Donald Trump, the heartfelt attempts to pay respect, attempts made by elderly people in Ukraine, but thwarted by cops — all mix to allow us to remember WWII, and see how Western colonialism and warmongering have marched on in fascist ways since the end of the war. We also look at new developments on the immigration front, wonder about how easy it seems for the contemporary US political class (both major parties) to show generational hubris, and then, we dig into FICTION FRIDAY, with a great short horror tale from E. Nesbit, and the continuation of “Tower” by GG!
