Porcupine Report #59: “Ron Paul’s Legacy 13 Years Later” with Jack Hunter
Manage episode 476145487 series 3287194
Seasoned Porcupine Report guest Jack Hunter joins Eric to share in the excitement for the upcoming Porcupine Freedom Festival, where he’ll return as a featured speaker. Together, they dig into current hot topics, including Cory Booker’s 25-hour performative Senate speech—which pales in comparison to past substantive filibusters like Rand Paul’s 2013 stand against John Brennan’s CIA nomination and drone policy, or Ted Cruz’s filibuster on Obamacare. They also reflect on Ron Paul's enduring legacy as he turns 90, highlighting how his influence sparked a new generation of activists and fueled movements in homeschooling, Bitcoin, and grassroots liberty. Finally, Eric and Jack weigh in on the recent leak involving national security discussions about bombing Yemen—and the disappointing lack of pushback from supposed anti-interventionist voices.
