Tom Mullen Talks Freedom

Summary:

Voting in elections can seem futile as you’re one vote among thousands or millions. But as a juror, you are one of twelve or twenty-three and can change the course of someone’s life if they are wrongly accused or guilty of unwittingly breaking a bad law. Jim Ostrowski joins Tom to talk about his free educational seminar on using your power as a juror to defend liberty.

Summary:

Elon Musk has decided Twitter is worth $44 billion after all, at least for the moment. But is it really “the new town square” with 70 million total U.S. users (including bots)? Also, the stock market tanks on good economic news, based on reduced expectations for inflation (money printing).

Summary:

Paul Manafort was prosecuted by the Mueller team for crimes unrelated to the 2016 election and for which he maintains his innocence. His new book, Political Prisoner: Persecuted, Prosecuted, but Not Silenced, not only shines a light on an out-of-control Justice Department, but on the DC Swamp’s lies about Ukraine, including its former president, Viktor Yanukovych.

Guest Bio:

Paul J. Manafort is a political consultant and government affairs professional whose career spanning five decades has been devoted to furthering the interests of the United States on the world stage. As campaign chairman for Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, Paul put into place the structure that delivered the nomination and eventually the general election for Donald J. Trump. Between 1975 and 1980, Paul worked on both the Ford and Reagan campaigns, playing a key role in the election of Ronald Reagan in 1980. In 1981, Paul cofounded Black, Manafort and Stone, establishing the model used in government affairs and public affairs today.

In 2009 Paul founded DMP International and focused on cutting edge technology with strategic consulting in both the business and political spheres. During this time, Paul became active in Ukraine, where he built a political practice helping the Party of Regions become a modern, western political party, and laying the foundation for Ukraine to become a member country of the European Union. Paul presently serves on the boards of directors of several private companies in the technology and telecommunications arenas.

Summary:

U.S. media is completely unreliable in terms of informing the American public about the war in Ukraine it is funding. Colonel Douglas Macgregor lends his expert opinion and insights to paint a more accurate picture of the situation on the ground, the effects of sanctions, and the likely future of the war.

Guest Bio:

Douglas Macgregor is a decorated combat veteran, the author of five books, a PhD, and a defense and foreign policy consultant. Macgregor is widely known inside the U.S., Europe, Israel, Russia, China and Korea for both his leadership in the Battle of 73 Easting, the U.S. Army’s largest tank battle since World War II, and for his ground breaking books on military transformation.

In 2004, Macgregor retired with the rank of Colonel. In 2020, President Trump appointed Macgregor to serve as Senior Advisor to the Secretary of Defense, a post he held until President Trump left office.

He holds an MA in comparative politics and a PhD in international relations from the University of Virginia. He has testified as an expert witness before the Senate and House Armed Services Committees and appeared as a defense analyst on Fox News, CNN, BBC, Sky News and public radio.
