Classical Liberal Caucus

Attention CLC Donors! We recently made a massive change to our website and donation software that will save us a significant amount of money off our budget, but comes with one minor downside. After April, all current recurring donations to the Classical Liberal Caucus will expire unless donors manually restart their recurring donations on our new webservice. This change will save us a lot of money, but requires us to convince all past donors to reup their commitment to the caucus. For this, we are announcing a GIFTBOX to recurring membership donations of $10/mo or to annual members paying $90/yr. These donors will receive a CLC-branded 14.5oz mug, a lapel pin, and a lanyard to carry to your state convention letting everyone know: Classical Liberalism is here to stay. Right now, this deal is only available to the first fifty members that sign up on our new system. IMPORTANT — Even if you have a current recurring donation, you must still renew to claim this gift deal because previous recurring donations will expire after April. All gifts will be sent out in April. lpclc.org/memberships/

@BigzMegan @billybinion @LP_CLC How many hijackings has the TSA stopped?

Just get rid of the TSA. Tests have repeatedly shown that it misses the vast majority of explosives anyway. It's mostly a form of security theater that makes everyone's lives more annoying. Abolish and privatize.

Happy 55 week anniversary to those who celebrate

Thank you DOJ for protecting Heritage American drug dealers from foreign competition.

Paul Ehrlich lost even within the environmental movement and few noticed. His original claim was stark: humans are mouths to feed, polluters, and ultimately trespassers in the ecosystem. If population grows too large, correction must come through die-off. Human ingenuity plays little role; at best, it is trivial. Humans are not creators, but burdens. From that premise, it follows naturally that some degree of population control ( including coercion) could be justified. The response from thinkers like Julian Simon was fundamentally different. Humans are not merely consumers; they are creators. Given the right institutions, they can solve environmental problems through innovation. The real question is not population, but the institutional framework within which people operate. From there, disagreement persists. One can argue, as I do, that markets are powerful forces for conservation and restoration. Others maintain that strong government intervention is necessary (regulations, management of commons, Pigouvian taxes) to correct misalignments between private and collective interests. A carbon tax, for instance, is justified on the grounds that pricing pollution induces behavioral change and innovation (aligning private interest with collective interest). But here is the key point: both sides reject Ehrlich’s premise. Whether one favors markets or regulation, both perspectives rest on the idea that humans are capable of creating solutions. Both assume that environmental outcomes depend on incentives and institutions, not on reducing the number of “mouths.” In that sense, both implicitly accept that humans are not parasites, but the ultimate resource. This was not always the case. The environmental movements of the 1940s through the 1970s were far more receptive to Ehrlich’s view. At the time, his premise was dominant. Today, it is not merely contested: it is largely abandoned, even by those who might never cite Simon. That is Julian Simon’s real victory: not that everyone agrees with his policy conclusions (Simon was a free market enthusiast like I am), but that his core insight -- that human beings are fundamentally creators -- has quietly become the shared starting point of the debate. Julian Simon not only won the bet that made him famous. He won the war of ideas and destroyed the most anti-Human idea ever (in both direct statements and indirect consequences through its application). Ehrlich died well after his ideas died.

VICTORY: The City of Douglas, Michigan, chickens out after scrambling a woman’s property rights. Kathy Sarkisian was fined $300 a day for keeping six hens, but after we sued the City, it reissued her permit, dropped the fines, and removed its unconstitutional neighbor veto.

LLM COMPANY: we built a computer program that predicts what people want to hear and says it BOOMER POLITICIANS: wow the fact that this computer program says what I want to hear is deeply concerning

@TheKingCorcoran Here's the facts: Every single government surveillance proposal that Republicans opposed when Obama and Biden pushed for it? They're supporting it now because it's "just for immigrants." Think for yourself for just one moment, we're begging you!

@TheKingCorcoran please bro they're only going to use the digital surveillance against noncitizens bro the cameras won't record the citizens please bro just one more Palantir contract for DHS bro please let us put your face in the government database bro it's for national security bro please

🚨BREAKING: Republicans are ERUPTING in CHEERS after reports President Trump is considering FORCING banks to ALLOW GOVERNMENT SURVEILLANCE of ALL customers — including EXISTING accounts!

Dear MAGA, In case you haven't read the Declaration of Independence - The right and duty of the people to "alter or abolish" government isn't about a FOREIGN government. It's about your own.

Do you agree with the decision by the US government to attack Iran??

ICE Agents are now confiscating identity documents from U.S citizens they detain then refusing to return them after the persons citizenship has been verified and they're released, leaving many without any documentation. motherjones.com/politics/2026/…

Of the convictions the @Innocence Project has been able to overturn using DNA evidence, 29% of them relied on false confessions. And those are just the ones that we can PROVE! So, yeah, we're against accepting a confession as a conviction. innocenceproject.org/false-confessi…

Reason's @TheAbridgedZach 3D-printed a gun in less than two hours. So can you. reason.com/video/2026/03/…

@tedcruz The Heritage Foundation has found ten instances of illegal aliens voting in the last thirty years. TEN. Several of them stole someone else's identity, meaning they had the correct identification documents, and the SAVE Act wouldn't have stopped them.

True. Illegal aliens consistently vote Democrat.

Wrong, Bill. Animal cruelty is already illegal and, as a crime of moral turpitude, already deportable. This bill made non citizens deportable WITHOUT a conviction. Republicans will now do the "you voted against the Stop Kicking Puppies Act!" meme in real life.
