For decades, Americans have looked at China as a reliable business partner and a friendly nation. That notion is eroding quickly, and Colonel Grant Newsham says Americans must view China as a threat in his new book "When China Attacks: A Warning to America."

Colonel Grant Newsham, a retired U.S. Marine, served in the Indo-Pacific for decades, including in intelligence and liaison roles, and was instrumental in establishing Japan’s amphibious force.

The Thursday before the Indy 500 is media day, and the BOB & TOM Show is invited out to interview the field. These are the interviews I did, but search for the Bob and Tom free podcast to hear all of the interviews with Tom, actor Drew Powell, myself, and over 20 other drivers. Check out the Bob and Tom YouTube channel for videos. I am a huge Indy 500 fan, and if you're not, I would ask, "Why not?" It is incredibly exciting. Thanks to Tom for letting me fill in for him on some of the interviews. If ten-year-old me knew that one day I would get to interview Indy 500 drivers for Bob and Tom, he wouldn’t have believed it.

A funny thing happened on the road to serfdom: while setting out to uncharitably critique libertarians, constitutional law professor Andrew Koppelman ended up being persuaded by F.A. Hayek on the importance of free markets. Still, he has some blistering critiques for other libertarian thinkers, and I've invited him on to discuss his new book "Burning Down the House: How Libertarian Philosophy Was Corrupted by Delusion and Greed" in an effort to find points of agreement and disagreement.

A new ATF rule reclassifies firearms equipped with pistol braces as short-barreled rifles, implying that brace owners are looking at felony criminal charges if they are not registered with the ATF. It also imposes increased taxation on firearms and accessories equipped with these braces. Parker McCumber, an OEF veteran, joins me to explain how this hits disabled veterans the hardest. 

https://youtu.be/ukr0BbJ8wkY

The pistol brace is a device that allows a firearm to be strapped onto a user's arm and was initially created for disabled veterans to fire recreationally and in competition with only one arm. The ATF and the Department of Justice claimed that pistol braces are being found and commonly used in more shootings and gang activities. However, Parker explained that pistol braces do not make firearms more lethal and that this new rule is suppressing the ability of disabled American veterans to exercise their Second Amendment rights. 

The ATF has projected 40 million pistol brace accessories on legally purchased firearms, which could mean tens of millions of gun owners becoming felons over this new rule. However, there is some optimism that the rule may be overturned, as the Fifth Circuit Appeals Court recently ruled that the bump stock ban was an unconstitutional usurpation of authority from Congress by the ATF.

Parker McCumber is an OEF Veteran, and entrepreneur who currently serves as a Field Artillery Officer in the Utah National Guard. He has over 11 years of experience in combat arms roles within the Army and Army National Guard. He is a Young Voices Contributor.

Jeremiah Ludwig, an independent housing policy researcher based in Washington DC, joins me to discuss how housing is becoming less affordable in cities due to supply shortages caused by strict zoning policies, and how this affects not just low-income families, but also middle-class families. 

We also explore strategies for addressing the issue, such as upzoning, which has been successful in California and Seattle and involves increasing the size of the allowable building envelope on a property. This approach is seen as less objectionable than completely tearing down zoning laws.

James Czerniawski joins me to discuss two recent Supreme Court cases, Gonzalez v. Google and Twitter v. Tamana, which have implications for free speech on the internet and Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. Section 230 is a law that protects websites from liability for third-party content. 

Chenowski, a policy analyst, explains that repealing or reforming Section 230 could significantly impact speech online and limit access to new and diverse voices. The Gonzalez v. Google case involves a family suing Google over a terrorist attack in which an ISIS recruitment video was seen on the platform. The family argues that Google should be liable for recommending the video and aiding a terrorist organization. The case raises questions about liability for third-party content and the extent to which companies can be held responsible for the actions of their users.

James Czerniawski is a Senior Policy Analyst at Americans for Prosperity, a national think tank in DC with 35 state chapters nationwide. He writes about Section 230, antitrust, consumer data privacy, cybersecurity, and technology and innovation issues.
