If Donald Trump came to the Libertarian National Convention to make peace on Saturday, it could hardly have gone worse. Within minutes of beginning speaking — and after enduring sustained jeering and boos — the former president turned on th politico.com/news/2024/05/2…

@daveweigel @RyanGirdusky LP ideologues are mostly anarchists, unlike non-aligned pragmatic libertarians, of which Milton Friedman, Tom Sowell and Peter Thiel are representative.

Former Pres. Donald Trump will be speaking at the Libertarian convention today. But, as Cato President and CEO Peter Goettler highlights in @PostOpinions, both Donald Trump and the current leadership of the Libertarian Party stray far from the values of individual liberty, limited government, and rule of law that define true libertarianism. wapo.st/44VwwJz

I don’t see how a flag of the American Revolution is outrageous.

WTF Justice Alito? electionlawblog.org/?p=143214 I was uncertain if revelation of first flag merited J Alito's recusal in the first case, but I now believe he must recuse in the Trump immunity and related cases. His impartiality could be reasonably questioned;no blaming it on spouse

We know former Pres. Donald Trump will take any opportunity to get onto a stage, which is why he accepted to speak at the Libertarian convention. But what’s in it for the National Libertarian Party? The answer, unfortunately, reveals the truth about today’s Libertarian party: It’s hardly libertarian anymore.

@Gustakook As you may have noticed, I am occasionally critical of Trump and other Republicans.

@David_Boaz Whoa boy - if you like your every movement, thought, and speech regulated, vote GOP. One cannot have been paying attention to the last 7 years and not understand that. The GOP has used state power to punish speech and association in unprecedented levels.
