    This is NOT America First. Impeach Trump? "I'd Support It" | 1734

    Trump sold "no more endless wars" and "America First", then turned around and launched major combat operations in Iran. In this one, we break down the flip flop using Trump's own past anti-Iraq rhetoric, then compare it to the new "NeoCon Manifesto" style messaging. We dig into the propaganda lines already flooding the media ("imminent threat," "not Iraq," "we didn't start this war") and why those narratives are designed to bypass the Constitution. Then we hit the real problem: Congress. War Powers has been twisted into a permission slip for presidents to do whatever they want, while lawmakers dodge accountability because they do not want their names on the record. We close with founding-era quotes on war and why the framers tried to keep the "dog of war" on a leash.

    Dumb BLEEP of the Week! (Mamdani, Olympic Joke Freakout, Newsom & More) | 1732

    Friday means Dumb Bleep of the Week. We dig through Fed Haters Club submissions and let the live group vote on the most ridiculous story in politics and culture. This week: NYC rolls out "emergency snow shovelers" with passport-level paperwork, while the same crowd fights voter ID. The Senate claims it is "too busy" for the SAVE Act, but somehow finds time for a Doggy Gras parade. Gavin Newsom says he "can't read a speech" and a viral post about the crowd turns out to be straight-up misleading. An Oregon rep ties RFK Jr and whole milk to "white supremacy" because of course. Bernie Sanders argues billionaires leaving California means they want kids to die, then dodges a brutal question about why the US dominates tech innovation. And yes, we end with the Olympic hockey joke that triggered a national meltdown. 00:00 Intro 03:31 NYC Snow Shoveler Fiasco 09:36 Tax Cut Math 12:23 Save Act Filibuster Fight 17:49 Senate Doggy Gras Detour 19:51 Newsom Voter ID Excuse 21:45 Dyslexia Clip Fact Check 30:36 Milk And White Supremacy 34:00 State Of The Union Cringe 40:03 Bernie Wealth Tax Rant 43:36 California Tax Skepticism 44:56 Bernie Dodges Innovation 46:53 Profit Incentives Explained 49:54 Europe vs US Culture 55:14 Libertarian Ticket Debate 01:03:04 Trump Hockey Joke Fallout 01:19:57 Instagram Outrage Spiral 01:25:46 Voting and Wrap Up   🚨Prolon is offering listeners 15% off sitewide plus a $40 bonus gift when you subscribe to their 5-Day Program!  Just visit https://ProlonLife.com/GML   🔗[ALL LINKS]:  https://gml.bio.link   📼 [YouTube] :https://bit.ly/3UwsRiv   🗽[Fed Haters Club]: https://www.goodmorningliberty.us/fedhatersclub   ⏳[Martens Minute]: https://martensminute.podbean.com/

    Breaking Down Trump's State of the Union: The Good, The Bad, and The Hypocrisy | EP 1731

    Trump gave a polished, rally-style State of the Union with big emotional beats, crowd-control mastery, and a closer packed with founding-era quotes. We break down why it plays so well on TV, and why the policy claims still don't add up. We hit: The "protect Americans, not illegal aliens" stand-up moment and the performative outrage Housing affordability spin: "low interest rates" vs the actual price problem and supply shortage Tariffs, the Supreme Court ruling, and the fantasy that tariffs can replace the income tax without slashing government The new "War on Fraud," plus the red-line rhetoric on Iran and how fast it turns into a war pitch If you want the libertarian lens on incentives, power, and propaganda, you're in the right place.

    Only 21% Want War With Iran. So Why Are We Doing This? | 1730

    Trump might strike Iran tomorrow or never, and that uncertainty is the point. Nate and Chuck break down why the real scandal is how quickly "limited government" voices become fine with unilateral war when it is their guy in charge. They react to Tucker Carlson's interview with Mike Huckabee, including the moment Huckabee doesn't push back at all on the assumption that war with Iran is coming. Then they dig into a University of Maryland poll showing only 21% support for initiating an attack, and the even bigger problem: most people cannot explain whose interests this war serves. Finally, they walk through the War Powers framework, why Congress is supposed to own this decision, and why the public's apathy keeps empowering forever-war politics.

    Dumb BLEEP of the Week! - Tariffs, Glyphosate Immunity, AOC, Newsom and More | 1729

    The Supreme Court just kneecapped Trump's "tariffs by emergency" strategy, and Nate and Chuck break down why that's actually a huge win for limiting presidential power. They dig into the scary argument hiding underneath it: if "regulate" secretly means "tax," then any president can invent arbitrary taxes across the entire federal regulatory state. Not great when the next "emergency" is climate, guns, or whatever cable news is screaming about. Then the show pivots to the MAGA vs MAHA fracture over glyphosate and Roundup. An executive order, a farm bill immunity push, and the ugly Monsanto paper trail that explains why people don't trust "the experts." Plus: Seattle's gig worker pay law backfires, California ships gas on a bizarre Bahamas loophole because of the Jones Act, and the low-IQ smears aimed at Thomas Massie heat up. 00:00 Welcome   01:14 SCOTUS Strikes Trump's IEEPA Tariffs: What the Ruling Actually Means   04:24 Regulate vs Tax: Why Tariffs Are Congress's Job (and Why It Matters)   12:06 Loopholes, Fees, and the Slippery Slope for Future Presidents   19:25 Kavanaugh's Dissent: The Roadmap to Tariffs via Other Statutes   21:42 Refunds, Market Reaction, and the Left's Mixed Incentives   24:01 MAGA vs MAHA: Glyphosate/Roundup, DPA EO, and Farm Bill Immunity   30:32 Monsanto Papers: Ghostwritten Science, Emails, and Lawsuit Fallout   36:00 Dumb Democrats: 'Nobody Called Trump Hitler/Racist' and Newsom's Spin   40:28 Newsom's 'Historically Illiterate' Claim & the Dyslexia Victim Card   41:39 AOC's Accent Switch + Venezuela 'Below the Equator' Fact-Check   44:39 Bill Maher's CO2 vs CO Mix-Up (and the Smug Delivery)   47:34 Too Many 'Dumb' Clips: Submissions Overload & Charlie Has to Bounce   49:16 Seattle Gig-Worker Minimum Pay Law Backfires: Higher Base, Lower Tips   55:40 California Gas Prices, Bahamas Detour & Why the Jones Act Makes It Worse   01:01:52 Twitter Files Fallout: DOJ/FBI Payments to X Kept Secret in Court   01:04:39 Defending Thomas Massie: 'Voting With Democrats' and 'Team Player' Attacks     🔗[ALL LINKS]:  https://gml.bio.link   📼 [YouTube] :https://bit.ly/3UwsRiv   🗽[Fed Haters Club]: https://www.goodmorningliberty.us/fedhatersclub   ⏳[Martens Minute]: https://martensminute.podbean.com/

    Fellow fed haters club member, LP Alliance member, and candidate for Libertarian Party vice chair Amanda Griffiths joined Josh to discuss her recent work with the LP Alliance and her candidacy for Libertarian Party vice chair. They explored the changes the LP Alliance would like to see within the Libertarian Party, the ongoing challenges the party faces both locally and nationally, and how the Libertarian Party—and Amanda specifically as vice chair—can help overcome those challenges.

    Warren Loves Billionaires, Just Not the Useful Ones + Trump's EPA Pulls a Massive Deregulation Move | 1727

    Elizabeth Warren tried to convince everyone that letting Amazon keep more of its own money is a "tax handout", and Nate and Charlie absolutely torch the logic. They break down how "tax break = government gave you money" is a framing trick, why Warren suddenly loves billionaires when they are Taylor Swift, Kim Kardashian, or LeBron James, and how this whole mindset treats your income like it belongs to "the kingdom" first. Then it's a rare white pill: Trump's EPA, led by Lee Zeldin, moves to repeal the 2009 "endangerment finding" that became the legal foundation for a huge chunk of modern emissions regulation. They talk Clean Air Act language, the Massachusetts v. EPA backdrop, why people are literally suing to force regulators to regulate, and what this means for car costs, annoying start-stop tech, and energy bills. Bonus reminder: any power you give the government will be used by someone you hate. 00:00 Welcome Back   02:55 Elizabeth Warren vs. Taylor Swift: The "Amazon Tax Handout" Claim   04:33 Why a Tax Cut Isn't a Government "Gift" (and what Amazon actually did)   11:27 Bonus Depreciation & R&D Expensing: Incentivizing Investment Over Taxes   15:46 Warren's Tesla $0 Tax Post: Loss Carryforwards Explained   20:53 Main Topic: EPA's Biggest Deregulatory Move & Ending the "Endangerment Finding"   21:53 How EPA Rules Make Cars Worse (turbochargers, start/stop, and repair costs)   24:43 Modern cars: better MPG, pricier repairs (and the hidden maintenance bill)   26:45 Obama reacts to EPA rollback + the coming court fights   28:30 The $1.3T "savings" claim vs EV costs (especially insurance)   31:16 What the 2009 Endangerment Finding is—and why it matters legally   32:08 Clean Air Act language, Chevron deference, and who should decide   36:12 Charts & incentives: fuel economy trends, gas prices, and regulation credit   38:56 Cost-benefit reality check: tiny climate impact vs real economic costs   40:30 Environmental groups' lawsuits & the "apocalyptic" messaging debate   43:38 Emissions still fall + bigger looming issues (economy, Social Security)   47:05 What regular people can do: push consistent small-government principles   48:08 Dow watch & the core takeaway: power you grant will be used by opponents   51:16 Final wrap: liberty message + subscribe/share call to action   🔗[ALL LINKS]:  https://gml.bio.link   📼 [YouTube] :https://bit.ly/3UwsRiv   🗽[Fed Haters Club]: https://www.goodmorningliberty.us/fedhatersclub   ⏳[Martens Minute]: https://martensminute.podbean.com/
