Nixonmaxxing: Rejecting Boomer Politics by Embracing War on the Deep State

This week we open at the Nixon Library, where JD Vance told a cheering room that the deep state took down Richard Nixon and that the same machine later came for Donald Trump. We trace who actually leaked Nixon to the press, why a younger right has turned him into a folk hero, and the part nobody in that building wanted to admit. Then we head to Kansas City, where Dutch World Cup fans fell in love with American abundance the same week Democrats confessed they had been hoping the tournament would fail. We close with a man the movement tried to erase. Walter Block joins us on getting purged by the Mises Institute over Israel, his defense of Javier Milei, and where the liberty movement actually lives now. 📼 NIXONMAXXING: REJECTING BOOMER POLITICS — Vance stands in the Nixon Library and says the deep state took down Nixon. We follow the thread to the FBI's number-two man settling a grudge in a parking garage, the Kennedy lawyers who ran the prosecution, and the truth nobody wanted to say out loud, that Nixon helped build the machine that ate him. ⚽ DEMOCRATS CAN'T CHEER FOR USA — Foreign fans crossed an ocean to marvel at how vast and rich America is, the same week one party grappled with the World Cup going too well. We look at why the modern left can credit the Qataris for a peace deal but never the country it wants to run. 🎓 WALTER BLOCK UNFILTERED — The Mises Institute stripped him of a fellowship he held for decades, and his only crime was supporting Israel after October 7th. We ask the self-described Mozart of Libertarianism about the purge, about Milei halving poverty in a real country, and about the civil war splitting the freedom movement down the middle. 🎙️ GUESTS THIS EPISODE Walter Block (@WalterEBlock) — Austrian economist, Harold E. Wirth Eminent Scholar Chair in Economics at Loyola University New Orleans, author of Defending the Undefendable, and former senior fellow of the Mises Institute.
