They are saying it so vociferously that they are still coming after one way that you can 100% ensure your freedom of speech. They are still after your encryption, and it is heating up. WHAT'S IN THE NEWS In New Hampshire, it's like this too news, a bill prefiled in the New Hampshire House would close a loophole allowing state and local police to circumvent more stringent state asset forfeiture laws by passing cases off to the feds. In nanny state news, Sam Adams released a new beer this past Halloween called Utopias, but it was banned in 15 states due to the drink's high level of alcohol.

And, an Ask Me Anything where I answer your questions on the worst book, F Marry Kill Marc Clair, Johnny Rocket, Chris Spangle, favorite Thanksgiving dishes, impeachment, documentaries, public school, and homesteading. WHAT’S RUSTLING MY JIMMIES Love him or hate him, and frankly, depending on the day, I can do both, but Rand Paul always kills it with his yearly "Waste Report." This year is no different. He brought to light a ton of new wasteful spending, and it is too rich and juicy to pass up. As always, Paul goes into detail on all of these topics in his Waste Report. It is good reading. WHAT'S IN THE NEWS In bad boys news, a federal indictment says the deadly Houston drug raid was based on lies from start to finish. In more bad boys news, the NYPD bragged about a big pot bust on social media. Turns our it seized 106 pounds of legal hemp.

As a matter of fact, in the Ask Me Anything segment this week, there is just such a question. Make sure to hand around towards the end of this episode to hear that one. One thing I always say when asked that question is to reduce your need to use government products and services. The biggest one that fits this category is to reduce your use of Federal Reserve Notes and other government fiat money. This brings me to an article I've hung on to for a couple of months. It's not dated information and it's something I knew I would want to talk about. What better time to do it than now! The article comes from Roger Ver's news.bitcoin.com site and is titled "Bitcoin Is a Viable Way to Remove the State From Your Life." Hell yeah! That's a title I can get behind! And, I agree with the sentiment 100%. WHAT'S IN THE NEWS In how to treat politicians news, Vitaly Zhuravsky, a member of the Economic Development Party, in Kiev, Ukraine, is full of rubbish today, as an angry mob tossed the neatly dresses lawmaker into a trash can, dousing him with water and throwing more trash on top of him.

Also, brought to you by ForkFest, the annual decentralized libertarian camping event that happens around PorcFest, with no tickets and no one in charge. Also, brought to you by all of my dozens of supporters. WHAT'S RUSTLING MY JIMMIES In its infinite wisdom, as we've talked about on this show, the government, specifically the FDA, is working on banning flavored vapes because of some disease that has spread up around vaping. OIh, and of course, they are doing it for the children. But, as we've talked about, it was highly likely that the vapes in questions that were causing deaths and diseases were for sure black market THC vapes, and not white market nicotine vapes. WHAT'S IN THE NEWS In indoctrination centers news, a Vilonia, Arkansas family wants answers after seeing video of an assistant principal yanking their son off the school bus and hitting the boy’s head on the roof.

Also, brought to you by ForkFest, the annual decentralized libertarian camping event that happens around PorcFest, with no tickets and no one in charge. Also, brought to you by all of my dozens of supporters WHAT'S RUSTLING MY JIMMIES I have two stories in my queue talking about the erosion of rights in this country so I wanted to bring this topic to your attention. First, the Oregon Court of Appeals made a first-of-its-kind ruling in the state when it affirmed a lower court's decision that the forced disclosure of a defendant's phone passcode was not a violation of her Fifth Amendment rights. You know, that pesky thing that supposedly enshrines our right against self-incrimination. Unfit to Fucking Exist. A Boston Democrat has proposed a state law that would penalize the use of the b-word when used to demean another person. And that word is not "boy."

Also, brought to you by ForkFest, the annual decentralized libertarian camping event that happens around PorcFest, with no tickets and no one in charge. Also, brought to you by all of my dozens of supporters. WHAT'S RUSTLING MY JIMMIES Normally I handle bad cops in the news or in a separate segment, but this case deserves a much more detailed examination, and it really rustles my jimmies. You’ve got to be a special kind of law enforcement officer to have two lawsuits filed against you in the same day. Hamilton County Deputy Daniel Wilkey is that kind of special. The Tennessee law enforcement officer managed to violate rights against enough people that two of them retained lawyers. This suggests Deputy Wilkey violates rights on a regular basis, but maybe not egregiously enough to merit a lawsuit in every case. WHAT'S IN THE NEWS In bad boys update news, the Fort Worth cop who shot and killed a woman playing video games with her 8-year-old nephew in her own home has resigned.

That's a trillion dollars folks. One Trillion Dollars that the government has overspent. That is not what they spent, that is only what they OVER spent.

And, make no mistake about it, when they said "Save the Trees," they didn't mean they wanted to save the trees. They meant they wanted the government to step in and use force by stealing people's land to save the trees. Fast forward to today. I guess environmentalists and conservationists decided to do just that. A Bay Area conservation group struck a deal to buy and to protect the world's largest remaining privately owned sequoia forest for $15.6 million. WHAT'S IN THE NEWS In bad boys update, Amber Guyger, the cop who killed Bothan Jean in his own apartment, was found guilty of murder.
