Welcome, fellow Conspirators!

Join us, M-F at 6 PM and join the chats at X and Rumble! Tonight, we dig into the breaking news of how Trump’s tariff threats are causing economic fears around the world, how Tulsi Gabbard’s claim that Trump is a “peace President” is bereft of any connection to reality, and how a set of large lessons emerge from studying the battle between the Trump Department of Education and the state of Maine over the state policy of allowing males to participate in girls’ sports. That, info on private roads versus government-run, coercion-based roads, and big news about Trump’s threats against Iran and Yemen, and a lesson about REAL consent v. the claim of statists that you gave your consent to be enslaved by the state when you have not!

Thanks for being here, supporting freedom, and sharing the links! And remember, fellow plotters for freedom, you can watch Liberty Conspiracy LIVE on Gardner's X @gardgoldsmith and on Rumble, Rokfin, and YT! Spread the word! Thanks, again!

This is a good sign, from an unusual place. As we know, Pam B and Donald T both extolled the purported virtues of "Red Flag" statutes that unconstitutionally and immorally stole firearms from civilians sans any due process. Yet, here, we see an about-face from their purported rationale from the first Trump Administration and the time when Pam was the FLA AG. Now, in a move that lets one explore what we've discussed for a few years, Bondi is, in a small, unspoken, way, questioning the illogic of a so-called "justice" system that prosecutes people, finds them guilty of a crime, releases them into the public, yet tells them they cannot act on their right to keep and bear arms. Reason has good coverage of it. LINK!

There is nothing in the US Constitution that gives the feds the power to even ISSUE something called a "visa" in the first place, and the "Alien Enemies Act" — even if one believed it allowed for the President to unilaterally claim an "invasion" without Congress either Declaring War or citing armed forces trying to enter any of the states — is not constitutional because it breaches Article Four, Section Four (only allowing a Prez to lead Militia members into states if invited in by each state) and it does not afford due process, thus breaching the 4th, 5th, 6th, 8th, and 14th Amendments. It's obviously unconstitutional, and it's stunning to see MAGA folks supporting this "ends justifies the means" mirage of legality. DIG! LINK!

Another good one from Reason that exposes the insanity of tariffs. In this case, Trump's "Drill, baby, drill," rhetoric runs smack into his trade war against imports, seeing the very energy companies that he wants to see "dominate" the world market getting slammed with a sudden 25% increase in the costs of integral items that rely on foreign manufacture to keep costs low. Piping, transport on wheels, components for rigs and derricks, all are becoming more expensive due to Trump's arbitrary and unilateral tariff Executive Orders... LINK!

The number of immigrants being detained by the unconstitutional ICE is at its highest level since 2019. That isn't good. Not one of these people sitting in a cage has been afforded due process. Many have lived here since childhood and have had "green cards". One couple has been here for 35 years and their children (born here) just saw a grandchild enter the world. The standards that so many GOP backers supposedly support are being washed away with a zeal I've not seen since the Dems went after the J-6-ers. LINK!

Gab and Kiwi Farms (I was ignorant of their existence until I read this piece) are in a massive battle with the UK over their refusal to comply with the British "Online Safety Act" — that Orwellian mandate that the platforms "police" content that the Brits demand to either be not allowed or taken down (and, of course, content that the Online Safety Commission will define to fit its whims and political agendas). Gab already had problems with the UK, circa 2018, when the government threatened ISPs and payment processors to drop the company and users, and Andrew Torba, the GAB CEO, has said that in the new fight, his company will not pay a "red cent" to the government for any "infractions" that OfCom claims they commit. LINK!

By the way, here's a cute move from the UK gubment, as noted in the ReclaimTheNet article:

"The notice Gab received from Ofcom, dated March 26, 2025, demanded a response by March 16 — a nonsensical timeline and blunder that Gab used to highlight what it sees as the reckless, bureaucratic overreach driving this censorship push."

Another key article from ReclaimTheNet, as the GOP-ers push for the "Kids Online Safety Act" (the rights-grabbers love to use "safety" in their aggressive attacks on our rights) to force age-verification and online IDs (so that will generate a larger market for ID masks via virtual net addys). The Constitution doesn't have any enumerated power in it for the feds to mandate this, but they want to do it, anyway. I also have a feeling it will be used to further their desire to pinpoint crypto users. LINK!

This is an interesting follow-up to something we covered at MRCTV last year, the CA statute that prevents parents from knowing how the government schools related to underage pupils who engage in "trans" behavior or use "trans" pronouns, etc., in the government schools. In this case, I can see the feds utilizing the "equal protection" clause of the 14th Amendment to get the state of California to respond. Allowing boys to pretend to be girls in schools can put the girls at risk, breaching the 14th A. LINK! Of course, this is tied to the unconstitutional Dept of Ed, and should be handled by the Dept of Justice, instead.

This Legal Insurrection piece covers some very worthwhile ground on a portion of the recent Gabbard-Patel testimony re national security. In it, we see numerous links to relevant stories about the Trump Admin revisions to the previous Biden nonsense of putting "Anthropogenic Climate Change" into its make-believe list of "national security" issues. For some time on my streaming show, I've been stressing that, like "public health," the term "national security" is meaningless, defined by the agents of the state to suit whatever agenda they want, that it prevents individuals from defining for themselves what is important for their own personal security, and it has become the equivalent of "the science" that no one can question once it has been dictated to us from on high.

Another good piece from Legal Insurrection, seeing a NY case in which the court has found against a parent whom the school system did not tell that her 12 year-old was "transitioning" in school. The mom has taken her daughter out of the system — yet still has to pay for it in taxes. LINK!

This is NOT a good thing. This is fascism in action - companies under nominal "private" ownership, but pushed and pulled by government threats and diktats. Based on the Constitution and federalism, if McCormick Spice is poisoning people, that is a matter for personal tort claims for injury or, should they allegedly kill, a matter for state courts and extradition of the criminals. The feds can take part if the home state refuses to extradite, or if the cross-state claims cause state v state complications. The idea of preemptive federal "rules" is just a smokescreen for threats by federal bureaucrats such as RFK Jr. Regardless of whether people think this is a good "outcome", moral principles remind us that "outcome" based philosophy is a "greater good" fallacy that sees individual rights crushed by the government that defines what is "good" for the "public." IN a free market, we have to be able to decide for ourselves, compare with the decisions and tastes of others as manifested in the market and in prices, and act accordingly. It's troubling to see people applauding these kinds of moves, or threatened moves, from RFK. LINK!

They want to "privatize" the airport security system and eliminate the TSA. They have a bill to do it. This is a good first step, but, as it was when the Bush knuckleheads started the TSA, any private system they allow will have to conform to federal mandates, and just the idea of federal mandates stands in contradistinction from what is enumerated as "powers granted" to the federal government by the US Constitution. To write that correctly, I should say they are "powers" claimed by the authors of the US Constitution, not true "powers" over people that can be supported on an ethical or philosophical level. LINK!

Let's begin with the utter silence about the US Constitution when Mr. Trump, Ms. McMahon, and Ms. Leavitt discuss Trump's "Executive Order to Eliminate the Department of Education." First, their claim to eliminate it is bogus, as this Forbes piece notes. The college loans and grants will continue, and the Department ITSELF will continue, despite the rhetoric from the White House and from the pop "alternative" media. Americans thinking otherwise are either going to have a bitter hangover a year from now, or they will, to paraphrase Richard Butler, "Open up their eyes, just to check that they're asleep again." Here is Forbes, including the admission that the Department will NOT end. Trump has a sworn constitutional duty NOT to fund anything not enumerated by the Constitution, so, in this case, until the Congress revokes the 1979 statute that split DOE off of HEW, the name of it would be there, but no one would work for it and no money would be spent on it. But, of course, Mr. Trump doesn't actually want to abide by the Constitution, and he is going to continue the college student funds as well as, most likely, block-granting federal funds to states. ...

Notice how American Greatness reports on this, using the word "dismantle"... To dismantle is to deconstruct to the point of the mechanism becoming unusable. It means "to take apart to make unworkable." This is not what they are doing in DC. Why do MAGA fans have to engage in this kind of massaging? LINK! In other words, he DID NOT deliver on Reagan's promise. My dad was there, and he knew they wanted to END the DOE, not "reshape it."

Recall when Biden got heat from Climate Cultists for "opening" 400K acres of ANWR to energy exploration a few years ago, and we exposed that Biden actually was reneging on something the Trump admin had agreed to do w Alaska and oil companies - to lease our 3 times more than what Biden finally allowed? Trump and Doug Burgum just set the table back, or they are starting to...

There are more than 100 lawsuits against Trump's Executive Orders, on everything from the LGBTQ agenda in the military to the Trans-dudes in women's prison populations concern, and Trump's legal cats just spoke to the SCOTUS about letting the Administration move more freely. The Admin is free to move only within the bounds of the Constitution, and it is duty-bound to NOT enforce legislation that breaches the Constitution. If HE breaches the rules of the Constitution, Congress (the branch with the most power, because it has the purse and the impeachment power) is supposed to IMPEACH him. How hard is this? Trump is not supposed to invent his own power, and he is supposed to end all unconstitutional Executive Branch offices. Jeesh! LINK!

A controversy has emerged over the use of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits to purchase soda, with allegations that large soda companies, including Coca-Cola and PepsiCo, are paying influencers up to $1,000 per post to oppose a proposed ban on such purchases.

Here is part of Nick Sortor's thread where Riley Gaines confirms it, on her word. LINK

So, the takeaway is - in a collectivist food system, it looks like the collectivism pits different interests against each other, and it offers opportunities for big benefits from special interests, so it is in their interest to steer that manna their way via the government.

Collectivism sure is ethical, isn't it? 😉

Just one of many who made off with cash. I think it's almost darkly amusing that they claim there is "fraud" within a system that forcibly takes my neighbor's money and then showers it on people in sundry unconstitutional ways, engages in undeclared military conflict, and holds people in cells without due process, even while redefining the meaning or words like "antisemitism". Perhaps there's a darker problem at the root of it - something called statism: the assumption that what is yours can belong to me if I wear the label "state authority" or a statute backs me up.

I found this amusing and got to mention it on my show. The answer is so obvious in the US and NY constitutions, that it amazed me the case made anyone wonder. Of course, for years, Dems have thought that giving migrants the vote would help them, assuming that the welfare state would be something the migrants might want to extend, thus perpetuating the Dem power. And the Dems would portray GOP-ers as "racist", even as many in the GOP would embrace collectivist and protectionist union arguments against expansions of immigration (oh, and both parties support plenty of corporate welfare, from Climate Cult corporations to military contractors). Now, we get to see through a window into deeper philosophical woods. The argument from those opposing this was that it not only was unconstitutional, it was being done to bring "others" in to influence the vote, to influence the lives of the local voters.

But, what is voting? Typically, it is a way for "others" to vote to influence the lives of people who want to be left alone. This sentiment against outsiders running the lives of the insiders admits the truth of most government participation, it's, as Bastiat said, "that great fiction by which everyone tries to live at the expense of everyone else."

Regardless of the high profile of the people, this is alarming. LINK! The headline from Reclaim The Net: "UK MP Questions Whether Elon Musk and JD Vance’s Criticism of Censorship Laws May Constitute 'Foreign Interference'” - And, of course, this is nearly identical to the argument the Vance and Trump team are using, in conjunction with the DoJ and DHS and HHS to portray as "antisemitic potential terror threats" people (migrants and non) who merely speak up in favor of the US stopping its shipments of arms to Israel

And that's it for the text-based links! Now, let’s check out two key video links!

First, here is what we just released via Liberty Conspiracy, on the Department of Ed NOT being dead… LINK!

Second! Max Blumenthal and Aaron Mate are excellent here. They provide key information about the fatuous claims of Trump et al that they can utilize the “Alien Enemies” act under any semblance of a constitutional system of Due Process. They also hit key points that pop media left unexplored when it comes to the recent Israeli slaughter of nearly 500 Palestinians a few days ago. Don’t mind the brief tech probs they had, the information is very valuable!

And that’s it for this week! As I mentioned last week, I hope I can attract some folks to visit AntiWar.com to help power their fundraiser!! LINK!

I hope your weekend is going splendidly! We have much to discuss Monday on Liberty Conspiracy Live at 6, so we’ll see you on Rumble, Rokfin, or X!

Thank you for the positive thoughts to back the Conspiracy!

Remember, you can watch Liberty Conspiracy Live, each weeknight, at 6 eastern! Help others learn about all the facets of freedom, from markets, to privacy, to speech, to parental control and education, and much MORE! You can watch, listen, and join the chat for freedom as we broadcast on my X and Rumble.

BTW, still no response from Rokfin.

Many of you might know that numerous creators/broadcasters who had hosted at Rokfin have found their channels shut down by Rokfin management — without any prior notice. Most of us had donations from viewers that had been collected by Rokfin (which takes 30 percent) and stored in their system until we remove them (they store them as a form of crypto, and it makes it very hard to get the donations transferred to a bank account). No one who has been shut down has been able to get access to the donations that are due him. We will update you as we get more information.

Meanwhile, thank you!! Remember hop to Rumble or X at 6 PM M-F for Liberty Conspiracy LIVE, and visit MRCTV.org! Hit me up at X as @gardgoldsmith there and on GAB as “GardnerGoldsmith”! And, of course, I want to mention that if you’d like to get some of my fiction, grab my current novellas at Amazon and Barnes and Noble!! 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!

Thank you for your positive reception to the ideas and the scholarship of freedom. God bless, all!
