EP:27 - The USS Liberty & Ben Shapiro

Darryl Cooper & Scott Horton dissect Ben Shapiro's most recent attack on Tucker Carlson and Ben's weaselly political maneuvering. They discuss the escalating tensions between the US and Venezuela, fueled by Trump’s statements, stressing the importance of fact over speculation and the need for public dissent against foreign interventions like this one. They also touch on media manipulation and the Trump administration's detachment from public sentiment. Reflecting on the Christmas Truce of World War I, they champion unity among diverse groups who oppose militarism despite differences on other issues. Widespread public dissent remains a powerful tool against the regime, which thrives on public ignorance, apathy, and docility... so join us in taking the White Pill this Christmas, realizing that we the dissidents are gaining ground, and keep on fighting the good fight with us.
