Steve Hanke, Senior Fellow at the Independent Institute and Professor of Applied Economics at Johns Hopkins University, joins John Cochrane, Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution of Stanford University, in discussing the root causes of inflation, and how high inflation will likely be in 2023.

The U.S. Supreme Court has been hearing oral arguments in a number of explosive cases, including the freedom of web designers to choose what version of marriage they will adorn through their work, plus cases dealing with Joe Biden’s executive order transferring student loan debt from borrowers to taxpayers, and Harvard’s race-based admissions policies. At the same time, Elon Musk’s Twitter revelations shed light on politicians influencing social media policies, and also we are now learning shocking back story of the collapse of the FTX crypto exchange.

Sr. Fellow Ivan Eland, author of War and the Rogue Presidency is interviewed on Deprogram with Michael Parker on TNT Radio. Eland discusses the power of the presidency dating back to President William McKinley and how that power has grown to dominate politics, while the congress has abdicated its responsibilities. This has led the United States into unilateral wars—or “police actions”—and shielded congress from exercising their role as the most dominant branch of government. Eland gives several examples of how the balance of power in government has shifted from the intentions of the Founding Fathers’ and the Constitution.

Sr. Fellow Ivan Eland, author of War and the Rogue Presidency talks with Andy Caldwell about the recent midterm elections and the implications on world peace and liberty. Eland talks about the history of the power of the presidency, which was ceded by the congress. Political leaders during Covid acted imperially, says Eland, as declarations of emergency allowed leaders at every level of governments to use executive powers and keep them indefinitely.

Sr. Fellow Ivan Eland, author of War and the Rogue Presidency appears on the Bryan McClain show on TNT Radio. Eland talks about the latest on the Ukrainian-Russia war and the implications of the missile that landed in Poland. Eland says Ukraine is trying to drag NATO forces into the conflict. He also talks about the history in the region and how the conflict began.

It looks like American voters were not as alarmed about inflation and the sagging economy as many people thought they were. On a possibly related front, what should we make of the reaction to the despicable attack on Paul Pelosi? And what is the deeper meaning of the race-based affirmative action cases now before the U.S. Supreme Court? We will discuss these issues and much more.

Research Fellow Randall Holcombe, author of Liberty in Peril, talks about his recent blog post on the Federal Reserve and what mistakes were made that led to high inflation rates. He explains how the Covid epidemic, and the government’s response to it, worsened inflation by shutting down commerce. The Fed acted politically, he says, instead of monetarily before inflation rose in 2022.

Sr. Fellow John C. Goodman, author of New Way to Care appears on the Shaun Thompson show on WIND radio in Chicago. Goodman talks about his recent articles on healthcare reforms saying seniors and disabled people will pay higher drug prices for will pay higher premiums for their Medicare part B coverage, which is the opposite of Democrats’ claims. Goodman says Democrats are taking money out of the Medicare drug program for green energy interests and Republicans need to do a better job of explaining this. Obamacare promises of lower costs have actually made things worse according to Goodman.
