Tom Mullen Talks Freedom

Summary:Two months to the day after the United States and Israel launched its war on Iran, it appears to be all over but the proverbial shouting. Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz and the Trump administration’s claims that its government is in disarray and its economy on the verge of collapse are sounding very reminiscent of the claims the Biden administration made about Russia early in the Ukraine War. Meanwhile, Iran’s foreign minister was warmly greeted in Moscow by Putin himself and their meeting looked very much like a victory lap.Links:Watch the video version of this episode here!What Would Truly Make America Great Again?The Great Iran Lie and the Persian Gulf CatastropheIran’s Araghchi Arrives in Russia to Meet Putin as US Talks StallFree Gifts from Tom:Download a free copy of Tom's e-book, It’s the Fed, Stupid, at itsthefedstupid.com.It’s also available in paperback here.More great content at Tom’s Substack here.Learn more about the philosophical differences between conservatives, liberals, and the founding fathers in Tom’s 2015 book, Where Do Conservatives and Liberals Come From?Check out Tom’s new podcast, Tom Mullen Talks Movies!Like the music on Tom Mullen Talks Freedom?

Summary:President Trump has imposed a “blockade” of the Straight of Hormuz as his latest desperate attempt to find an exit ramp from the Iran War. But 90% of Iranian oil exports are to China and Chinese ships are sailing right through. Meanwhile, Israel and Lebanon have separately agreed to a 10-day ceasefire.Links:Watch the video version of this episode here!Iran exposes the delusional empire and its mad kingChina calls U.S. blockade of the Strait of Hormuz ‘dangerous and irresponsible’Free Gifts from Tom:Download a free copy of Tom's e-book, It’s the Fed, Stupid, at itsthefedstupid.com.It’s also available in paperback here.More great content at Tom’s Substack here.Learn more about the philosophical differences between conservatives, liberals, and the founding fathers in Tom’s 2015 book, Where Do Conservatives and Liberals Come From?Check out Tom’s new podcast, Tom Mullen Talks Movies!Like the music on Tom Mullen Talks Freedom?

Summary:President Trump postponed his catastrophic attack on Iran’s energy and other civilian infrastructure at the zero hour, citing negotiations with Iran, including an Iranian 10-point plan Trump called ‘workable.’ But no one could possibly imagine the U.S. agreeing to Iran’s proposal and Trump appears to be merely buying time.Links:Watch the video version of this episode here!US 15-Point Plan to Resolve Iran ConflictIran’s 10-point peace plan in full – and whether Trump will actually accept itWhere will a U.S. defeat in Iran leave the world?Free Gifts from Tom:Download a free copy of Tom's e-book, It’s the Fed, Stupid, at itsthefedstupid.com.It’s also available in paperback here.It’s priced at a pre-hyperinflation level so grab a few copies for friends if you can.Learn more about the philosophical differences between conservatives, liberals, and the founding fathers in Tom’s 2015 book, Where Do Conservatives and Liberals Come From?Check out Tom’s new podcast, Tom Mullen Talks Movies!Like the music on Tom Mullen Talks Freedom?

Summary:Three days into his second extension of the 48-hour deadline set on March 21 for Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz, the strait is still closed, Trump continues to claim he is close to a deal, but Iran says U.S. proposals received through intermediaries are ‘unrealistic.’ There appears to be only one way out of this conflict, and the empire won’t like it.Links:Watch the video version of this episode here!Trump claims “new regime” in Iran is more reasonableTrump issues new warning to Tehran, Iran calls US peace proposals 'unrealistic'The emperor is defeated in PersiaFree Gifts from Tom:Download a free copy of Tom's e-book, It’s the Fed, Stupid, at itsthefedstupid.com.It’s also available in paperback here.It’s priced at a pre-hyperinflation level so grab a few copies for friends if you can.Learn more about the philosophical differences between conservatives, liberals, and the founding fathers in Tom’s 2015 book, Where Do Conservatives and Liberals Come From?Check out Tom’s new podcast, Tom Mullen Talks Movies!Like the music on Tom Mullen Talks Freedom?

Summary:The Trump administration maintains it is having “talks” with Iran aimed at reaching an agreement to end hostilities. Iran continues to publicly deny any talks are occurring.

Summary:On Saturday, President Trump gave Iran 48 hours to open the Strait of Hormuz or the U.S. military would destroy Iran’s energy infrastructure, beginning with the largest site first. Iran responded that if so attacked they would destroy the energy infrastructure and vital desalinization plants of the GCC. Monday came and Trump backed off, saying there had been productive talks with Iran. He issued a new five-day timeframe. Iran denied the talks occurred and raised him: they’re not interested in talking anymore. So, the clock ticks on another Trump ultimatum.Links:Watch the video version of this episode here!The emperor is defeated in PersiaWhy the Trump experiment was a failure in shrinking government or ending 'forever wars'War and socialismFree Gifts from Tom:Download a free copy of Tom's e-book, It’s the Fed, Stupid, at itsthefedstupid.com.It’s also available in paperback here.It’s priced at a pre-hyperinflation level so grab a few copies for friends if you can.Learn more about the philosophical differences between conservatives, liberals, and the founding fathers in Tom’s 2015 book, Where Do Conservatives and Liberals Come From?Check out Tom’s new podcast, Tom Mullen Talks Movies!Like the music on Tom Mullen Talks Freedom?

Summary:Evidence continues to mount that the Trump administration launched the Iran War with no plan to deal with the consequences countless experts predicted if Iran were attacked. Apparently unable to reopen the Strait of Hormuz unilaterally, Trump now claims its closure is really Europe’s and Asia’s problem because the U.S. doesn’t import much oil that travels through the strait. His argument is dumb, dishonest, or both.Links:Watch the video version of this episode here!'Not our war': U.S. allies balk at Trump's Strait of Hormuz demandsWhy the Trump experiment was a failure in shrinking government or ending 'forever wars'The FDA is a Corporate Protection Scheme and MAHA is Making It WorseFree Gifts from Tom:Download a free copy of Tom's e-book, It’s the Fed, Stupid, at itsthefedstupid.com.It’s also available in paperback here.It’s priced at a pre-hyperinflation level so grab a few copies for friends if you can.Learn more about the philosophical differences between conservatives, liberals, and the founding fathers in Tom’s 2015 book, Where Do Conservatives and Liberals Come From?Check out Tom’s new podcast, Tom Mullen Talks Movies!Like the music on Tom Mullen Talks Freedom?

Summary:Trump certainly isn’t the first politician who campaigned hard on an issue and then did precisely the opposite once in office. It’s so regular an occurrence that people construct elaborate theories for why politicians and other government officials do the things they do.

Summary:The Trump administration has maintained the U.S. military has been wildly successful in the opening days of the Iran War. It claims to have destroyed 80%-90% of Iran’s missile capabilities and is close to victory. The war’s critics paint precisely the opposite picture. They claim U.S. bases in the region have been largely destroyed or rendered inoperable and the U.S. is close to running out of defensive missiles. Which story is true? Both? Netiher?

Summary:President Trump has attacked Iran without a declaration of war by Congress or even a congressional authorization to use military force. Like its predecessors, the Trump administration justifies its actions with bogus claims about the declaration of war power, executive war powers, and the mythical “separate and coequal” branches of government created by the U.S. Constitution. Tom debunks all of the above using primary source material.Links:Watch the video version of this episode here!James Madison’s Notes on the Constitutional Convention (August 17, 1787)50 U.S. Code § 1541 - Purpose and policy (War Powers Resolution)Federalist No. 48Free Gifts from Tom:Download a free copy of Tom's e-book, It’s the Fed, Stupid, at itsthefedstupid.com.It’s also available in paperback here.It’s priced at a pre-hyperinflation level so grab a few copies for friends if you can.Learn more about the philosophical differences between conservatives, liberals, and the founding fathers in Tom’s 2015 book, Where Do Conservatives and Liberals Come From?Check out Tom’s new podcast, Tom Mullen Talks Movies!Like the music on Tom Mullen Talks Freedom?

Summary:After another military buildup on Iran’s doorstep, the Trump administration suddenly changed the terms of the negotiation to an offer Iran could not accept. It then launched an air attack coordinated with Israel on Iran that the administration says could last weeks, although the objectives seem very open ended. And despite hoorahs all around from members of the administration and its supporters, Iran is refusing to go quietly into that good night. Colonel Douglas Macgregor joins Tom to discuss.Guest Bio: Colonel 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 groundbreaking books on military transformation: Breaking the Phalanx and Transformation under Fire.

Summary:President Trump commenced a joint military action with Israel against Iran on Saturday, violating arguably the most important law ever passed by Congress, not to mention the Constitution itself. But as usual, nobody seems to care. And contrary to a popular misconception, the War Powers Resolutions does not allow the president to initiate military force without Congress for sixty days.Links:Watch the video version of this episode here!Trump's attack on Iran violated the War Powers ResolutionWhat’s So Important About a Declaration of War?Trump announces "major combat operations" in Iran.

Summary:The State of the Union address has long been a self-congratulatory Roman spectacle, with the sitting president taking credit for things he either had nothing to do with or hadn’t occurred at all, along with making promises no government on Earth can possibly keep.

Summary:Trump squandered a good part of his first year in office focusing on foreign adventures that made a mockery of DOGE and delivered no benefit to American citizens. But on Thursday, Trump finally delivered a win for his supporters by rescinding an EPA rule designating carbon dioxide a danger to public health and welfare. This opens the door to massive deregulation in the automobile industry, among others. “Libertarian Car Guy” Eric Peters joins Tom to discuss.Links:Watch the video version here!The “Endangerment” That Never Was is OverEric’s website EPAutos.comEric’s X feedFree Gifts from Tom:Get a free copy of It’s the Fed, Stupid at itsthefedstupid.com!Learn more about the philosophical differences between conservatives, liberals, and the founding fathers in this free excerpt of Tom’s 2015 book, Where Do Conservatives and Liberals Come From?Subscribe to Tom’s Substack here!Check out Tom’s new podcast, Tom Mullen Talks Movies!Like the music on Tom Mullen Talks Freedom?

Summary:The core of libertarianism is property rights, including the rights to life, liberty, and justly acquired possessions. For those libertarians who believe government should exist at all, they must decide what, if any, land the government should control, who truly owns “publicly held” land, and how trespass on publicly held land should be dealt with. This is the essence of immigration policy from a libertarian perspective.Links:The Gaping Hole in the Libertarian Immigration DebateJefferson and Madison: Regulating Immigration a Power “No Where Delegated to the Federal Government”Free Gifts from Tom:Get a free copy of It’s the Fed, Stupid at itsthefedstupid.com!Learn more about the philosophical differences between conservatives, liberals, and the founding fathers in this free excerpt of Tom’s 2015 book, Where Do Conservatives and Liberals Come From?Subscribe to Tom’s Substack here!Check out Tom’s new podcast, Tom Mullen Talks Movies!Like the music on Tom Mullen Talks Freedom?

Summary:Millions of Americans are invested in the narrative surrounding convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The left believes release of the so-called “Epstein client list” will finally bring down their arch-nemesis, President Trump. The right is split between believing it will expose a vast network of satanic pedophiles controlling world governments or connections to foreign intelligence. But what if there is no Epstein client list because there were not Epstein clients? John Ziegler joins Tom to explain why he believes this is just another case of mass hysteria growing out of a sexual abuse scandal that will likely harm innocent people before it is over. Video interview here!Guest Bio:John Ziegler is a podcaster, documentary filmmaker, and political commentator known for his fierce critiques of media bias and institutional narratives. He’s been a conservative talk-radio host (notably on KFI Los Angeles), and  produced films like Media Malpractice: How Obama Got Elected (2009) and hosted the podcast, With the Benefit of Hindsight, which made the shocking claim that Jerry Sandusky of Penn State sexual abuse infamy was in fact completely innocent, as was Joe Paterno and others caught up in the moral panic surrounding that case, a claim I believe he proved conclusively.John currently hosts the podcast The Death of Journalism exposing major journalistic failures.Links:The Death of Journalism podcast-       Episode Two Hundred Sixty Eight: The Dumbest ConspiracyWith the Benefit of Hindsight podcastJohn’s X accountFree Gifts from Tom:Get a free copy of It’s the Fed, Stupid at itsthefedstupid.com!Learn more about the philosophical differences between conservatives, liberals, and the founding fathers in this free excerpt of Tom’s 2015 book, Where Do Conservatives and Liberals Come From?Subscribe to Tom’s Substack here!Like the music on Tom Mullen Talks Freedom?

Summary:The media tell us the Trump administration has expended tremendous effort trying to “mediate” between the Ukrainian and Russia governments to bring about an end to the Ukraine War.

Summary:Libertarians and other free market advocates tend to dismiss Trump’s tariff policy out of hand as simply economically ignorant mercantilism.

Summary:President Trump has designated April 2, 2025 “Liberation Day,” as he claims the reciprocal tariffs he imposes on American importers will make the rest of the country freer. But tariffs don’t make a country freer or richer and aren’t beneficial even as a response to like treatment from trading partners. As have conservatives throughout American history, Trump views trade as a zero sum game, an economic ‘war,’ with winners and losers.Links:Watch this episode on YouTubeFree Excerpt: Where Do Conservatives and Liberals Come From?

Summary:Pundits constantly refer to a supposedly binary “political spectrum” with extreme conservatism on one end and extreme liberalism on the other. Often libertarians are talked about as if they fall somewhere between these two extremes. But this is a false paradigm. Conservatives, libertarians, and the people we now call “liberals” have three completely different views of human nature and ideas about the purpose of government.

Summary:In order to deport illegal immigrants who belong to criminal gangs more expeditiously, President Trump has invoked the 1798 Alien Enemies Act. His premise in justifying using this due process workaround is that the state of illegal immigration and its related maladies like drug trafficking constitute a war. Federal judges have ruled against this argument. Ironically, it’s the same dispute that occurred when the act was passed and the related “Alien and Sedition Acts” led to the theory of state nullification of federal laws and ultimately to the elevation of Jefferson’s Republicans and the destruction of the Federalist Party.

Summary:The administrative state has waged a war against automobiles for decades, its intensity increasing exponentially with each new Democratic president. They have regulated full-size sedans out of existence and soon will do the same for all internal combustion engine vehicles if they are not stopped.

Summary:Since Summer 2023, the Federal Reserve has been reducing its balance sheet and thus reducing the base money supply available to member banks. However, the $2 trillion that has flowed out of the money supply during this “tightening” has been matched dollar for dollar by money flowing back into the economy from the Reverse Repo Market. Now, as the Reverse Repo Market balance approaches zero, the Fed will have to decide whether it continues to shrink its balance sheet and decrease the money supply for real, bringing on a possible financial crisis, or freeze or increase its balance sheet and bring back high “inflation.”A reckoning is coming soon.Links:Watch on YouTubeIs the Fed Loosening or Tightening?

Summary:As part of his agenda to halt the mass migration of illegal immigrants into the United States, President Trump signed an executive order indicating the administration’s interpretation of the 14th Amendment as not extending citizenship to children born in the United States to mother’s who are here illegally or on a temporary visa if the father is not a citizen or permanent resident. Tom analyzes the constitutionality of this interpretation and the likelihood of its success in a SCOTUS proceeding.Links:PROTECTING THE MEANING AND VALUE OF AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP (the executive order)The 14th Amendment Congressional Debates of the 14th Amendment to the United States ConstitutionJefferson and Madison: Regulating Immigration a Power “No Where Delegated to the Federal Government”Justin Amash Response to Executive Order on XFree Gifts from Tom:Get a free copy of It’s the Fed, Stupid at itsthefedstupid.com!Learn more about the philosophical differences between conservatives, liberals, and the founding fathers in this free excerpt of Tom’s 2015 book, Where Do Conservatives and Liberals Come From?Check out Tom’s new podcast, Tom Mullen Talks Movies!Like the music on Tom Mullen Talks Freedom?

Summary:Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy promise to vastly reduce government inefficiency in the administrative state. But the problem isn’t just that there are too many bureaucrats doing a poor job. It’s that the entire idea of regulation as performed by those agencies is antithetical to America’s most basic principles.People have a right to buy and sell food and drugs the government doesn’t deem safe, pay and earn wages the government thinks are too low, and do virtually everything else the administrative state sets out to prohibit.And regulation has always been a tool of the largest corporations to eliminate lower cost competitors.Links:Progressivism Has Always Been Authoritarian, Anti-Democratic, and ReactionaryWhere Do Conservatives and Liberals Come From?: And What Ever Happened to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness?
