Episode 79: My Story by The Clean Libertarian Podcast (anchor.fm)

With the risk of kinetic war between the US and Russia becoming more and more likely each day, the United States is already marshalling its forces to silence domestic and international dissent to the conflict. In this episode, I examine this weekend's cancellation of Consortium News, Mintpress News, and Geopolitics and Empire from PayPal and place them in the historical context of wartime censorship in the United States.

It's no secret that close relations with Taiwan are key to the United States' policy of "extreme competition" with China. A main feature of this relationship has been the staggering amount of arms sales that US military contractors have made with the Taiwanese. Behind these deals stands the Project 2049 Institute. In this episode, we explore the 2049 Institute, its connections to neoconservatism, and the role that it plays in broader US/Taiwan/China relations, especially in facilitating the above-mentioned arms sales.

Robbie Martin of Media Roots Radio joins me to discuss his multi-part documentary "A Very Heavy Agenda." Robbie recently released Part II for free on YouTube because it documents the Neoconservative revival of the early 2010s which led directly to the 2014 Maidan Coup and the current stand-off between NATO and Russia. Robbie and I also discuss the US' new cold war with Russia and China, including certain suspicious narratives that libertarians are particularly prone to fall for.
