twice as a conservative and once as the libertarian party nominee presently he's the host of the ron paul liberty report it's a pleasure to welcome him back to the show i dr paul. that he was nice to be with you today so i want to talk about the economy shortly but first can you give us your opinion of attorney general william barres handling of the moeller report. well i'm not an expert on that because for some reason i can't get involved intensely but you know from a more superficial viewpoint and seeing in light of all the fighting and fuming in the politicking going on. he comes across as handling himself pretty well but i wouldn't be the one to dissect every statement from a legal listing viewpoint most of this i think is just generally politic and you know not so much and they're always sorting out in great detail all the constitutionality the legalities of this i think ninety nine percent of what i had to listen to in the last you know couple years it's just been two groups angling against each other and yet at the same time i see both these groups getting along very well when they

welcome back to politicking i'm matthew cook sitting in for larry king ron paul now joins me from lake jackson texas you know him as the outspoken former republican congressman from texas he made three bits for the white house twice as a conservative and once as the libertarian party nominee presently he's the host of the ron paul liberty report it's a pleasure to welcome him back to the show i dr paul now that dave nice to be with you today so i want to talk about the economy shortly but first can you give us your opinion of attorney general william barres handling of the muller report. well i'm not an expert on that because for some reason i can't get involved intensely but you know from a more superficial viewpoint and seeing in light of all the fighting and fuming in the politicking going on. he comes across as handling himself pretty well but i wouldn't be the one to dissect every statement from a legal listing viewpoint most of this i think is just generally politic and you know not so much and they're always sorting out and great detail all the constitutionality isn't the legali

next for a chaotic venezuela let's ask former united states congressman and presidential candidate ron paul ron welcome back. thank you nice to be with you today apparently . news we heard during that recent abortive regime change attempt included reports that madore was at the airport ready to flee to cuba but venezuela's military leadership remains loyal to him and now our president is characteristically thinking aloud questioning the warhawks your prediction will the usa continue meddling there. well let's hope so but you know they're slow learners when you think that is vice that trump is getting now comes from individuals who was advising bush going into the middle east and that didn't work out so well so you know their advice is still still very prevalent tromp you know sometimes we hear an attitude it might be different but if he really both was a believer he would have people like bolton and pompei o n r as they are dedicated to the empire and to have our presence there and it's unbelievable how many failures they have and they they don't even blink an eye with this just keep on goi

come on in, ron paul, former texas congressman and libertarian. so welcome back to the program. ut, a, carrot and b, president trump's hard stand? >> well, first, we don't like tariffs. they weren't intended in the free market and of course, the constitution allows, you know, tariffs for raising revenues but not for fighting trade wars. so i would say the trade war that's been going on has a lot to do with all the countries, i don't think the policies of the president in these last couple years has been very good for the economy. it's interesting to me that over the years, hardly any economist would say oh, we like tariffs but all of a sudden, now everybody is sort of what do we do now, how do we manage this mess. stuart: from my perspective, if you want to straighten things out with china, you want more free trade with china, you're going to have some leverage. the only leverage we've really got, that i can think of, is tariffs. what's wrong with tariffs as leverage? >> well, what you want to do is compete with more free markets. they made an advance in the last decade or so wit

with one kind of endorsement, ironically, from ron paul who said tulsi gabbard is the best.y liberal when it comes to economic. is gone foreign policy. she does not want these engagements, which is an economic issue. we save a lot of money. ron paul is with you and at the same time that is thought to be a foreign affairs affairs issue. if you look at the american people, foreign policy does not rank towards the top. i don't remember the last time a president was elected on foreign policy. rep. gabbard: the most important job the president has is to serve as commander-in-chief and keep the american people safe. the qualifications and experience i bring to that job will best equip me to accomplish that mission. as you mentioned, too often foreign policy is relegated as two sides while there are many different domestic issues that many of the other candidates are bringing to the forefront. as ron paul stated, and i have stated many times come you cannot separate these issues, because as long as we spend trillions of our hard-earned taxpayer dollars on waging wasteful regime cha

he's a little bit like ron paul.ember ron paul was this libertarian who was very often willing to attack establishment republicans, republicans who voted for big budget. so he's frankly a lot more ideologically consistent on this issue of obstruction of justice, what impeachment means, when the president acts oncertain way, whether the democrat or republican, thaw should be called out. and >> so he's a young man with old school political values, right? because he's not falling in line with all the old oer guys who seem to be falling in line with this president. >> and they loved him when he attacked the republican leaders that they disagree would. but now these guys don't like when they're attacking trump because they're so survile to him. >> so you said that republicans are not concerned alice. that no one is saying -- stapding along side of him and no one in the party is worried? >> absolutely not. and we saw that throughout -- for whatever reason he decided to dive head first into deep end of the impeachment pool

we will get more reaction from ron paul.isagree with me. but who knows. ron paul is on the show. >>> check the big board. the market right now at a session high. well, almost. we were up 70 a moment ago. now we're up 50. remember when we opened 96 minutes ago? we were down 200. that's a turnaround. >>> moments from now, we are expecting the first trade in luckin coffee. they are the starbucks of china. what's the starting price? liz: $24.50. it's expected to start trading fairly shortly but to your point, they will try to overtake starbucks in china. starbucks has been there for 20 years. luckin is basically two years up and running. they will try to beat starbucks prices by 25% using two key tools, one, technology. you have to order everything digitally and they will have smaller spaces. they say we will give you a discount if you come in. stuart: they have three kind of kinds of stores. they have little drop-in stores, walk in, walk out. they have relaxing stores where you go and chat with your friends. and they have a del

he's very libertarian, similar to what a ron paul would have been in the republican conference. believe he's still affiliated with the freedom caucus, so when i heard kevin mccarthy say he votes with nancy pelosi more than he votes with me, could you have made that argument about many of the members of the freedom caucus over a lot of these really important governance issues and that's where justin amash is. very libertarian. he can be very intellectually honest and votes against a lot of bills. even in the majority he would vote against things the same way ron paul d.a little bit of an outlier within the conference, but i wouldn't underestimate this. it does have an impact. he's a republican from the state of mish mix you know, again, a very critical swing state for donald trump, and, you know, the fact that there's a crack in grand rapids, michigan probably isn't real pleasing to the white house right now. >> he made a key point that i thought was interesting. he said he doesn't know if there's a lot of republicans that have read the 400-page report. how many members of congre

ron paul mckenzie nose to aren't any quick fixes to the situation the british government has now committed itself to investing in youth work and strengthening the police presence. everyone knows the problem has simply become too large to ignore. to greece now where a centuries old tradition is on the verge of extinction the country's one fishing boats known as are synonymous with the greek islands building the boats is a craft that's been passed down for generations and it's a heritage the greeks are very proud of but the government and the e.u. are paying owners to turn what many see as works of art into scrap wood boat builders like demetrius moore acas fear that silk will vanish from greece's coastline for good. there are a familiar sight for holiday makers in greece the colorful fishing boats. but the traditional wooden boats are an increasingly rare sight the european union pays fishermen cash if they scrap their. demetrius maracas is the last boat builder on the island. now he has to destroy the boats that he built over the past decades otherwise the fishermen won't get their subsidy

guest: i am certainly not dissing ron paul or walter jones, i am a big fan of ron paul.t is good to see him washington when positions get hardened, this new information comes along, and walter jones, it did change his mind on the war, and i commend him for that. i was not implying that there weren't republicans that opposed this. my only reason for bringing up the democrats was to show that they were scared the second time to oppose it, because they got burned the first time. it was not necessarily to congratulate the democrats, although, they were more -- there were more democrats opposing than republicans. but certainly, some republicans did and they are to be especially commended because of their party was mostly going , the with the president republican president at the time. host: nashville, tennessee on the independent line, good morning. caller: good morning. i would like to hear the gentleman comment on this -- i am in my 60's and getting ready to retire, and i have been watching this for at least 50 years. it seems to me that when you look at globalization, with

he has long been a libertarian in the mold of ron paul and has never been a fan of president trump andsident acknowledged that and he opposes me and some of our great republican ideas and policies just for the sake of getting his name out there. but for most democrats there is a realization that amash's tweets won't change anything about impeachment. >> the likelihood that the known jury in this case, the senate of the united states, would actually remove the president, is close to zero. >> adam schiff, the chairman of the house intelligence committee concurs with that statement. >> dana: doug mckelway, thank you. california senator, here is pushing for punishment and penalties for some companies. so who would she target? plus dozens of tornadoes ripped through several states this weekend. forecasters are warning the danger is not over. the forecast is next. >> just kind of shoved her into the closet and put my back against it and paraded through through the whole thing. is it a musical ♪ at newday, veteran homeowners can get $54,000 dollars or more to consolidate high rate credit card

you compared him to -- you said rand paul. >> i said ron.'t take much of the vote nation wide, he's very popular in his home state of michigan. how damaging would thatby for trump's reelection? >> well, my sense is -- what amash did is i think psychologically damaging to the president andmany republicans. who's not going to create any ground swell in the house to go down the impeachment rabbit hole path. but it's damaging and this is the state of michigan. amash represents grand rapids. it's a swing state so if he were to run as a libertarian, truthfully i think third-party candidates tend to acrew to the benefit of the incumbent. that might seem counterintuitive, but it would split the antitrump vote, even though they could have been also supporting trump. i think a third part a candidacy would benefit trump. >> you're unpennsylvania. president campaigned in your home state tonight. talking about the importance of pa pennsylvania in 2020. does he have a shot at talking a state again, you think? >> well, my assessment of 2016 was not so much

bring mohamed ali money he's an associate editor of the news website on monitor and leads there ron paul's blog joining us from london thank you very much so this. difference of information an opinion or assessment analysis that is coming from the u.s. as compared to what we're getting from this the british commander how how significant is that divide. i think what comes out of all of this to me at least is that there are multiple dimensions obviously to what's going on i think on the one the u.s. has collation the decision to withdraw all non-essential personnel is a message to its own allies we have the british talk about her saying that basically there is no such threat as you guys see it and then we disagree and i think this is a way to basically wash them. on the 2nd level i think it's also a way to pressure they walk us already is to say you're either with us or against us and i think the 3rd dimension to it of course i think is what they want to refer to a psychological war that the u.s. is not willing to go to war just yet at least but is trying to huff and puff and then nothing to

. >> ron paul likes the talk. he said you're tough on foreign policy.doesn't think you would get too involved in the middle east. he said you're the best candidate in there right now, but he doesn't like some of your economic views. that you might be a spender or you might be a typical democrat. that unnerves system that think you'll parrot whatever the line is of the party right now. you say? >> well, look, you can look at my history. we talked about how i dot parrot anybody else's line. my focus, my mission is on serving the american people. as president and commander-in-chief, i will bring a different leadership. yes, on foreign policy. this is a great focus of mine. it's important to recognize that we cannot separate foreign policy from domestic policy. we've seen how since 9-11 alone, we've spent trillions -- >> neil: so would that end -- >> that would end under a president gabbard. >> neil: and would you do away with the president's tax cuts? >> i think we need to overhaul the whole tax system. the president's tax cuts overwhelmingly benefitted th

this was a professional maverick, he was a ron paul supporter. he gave john boehner that. this is very much there. it would be one thing if he was the republican live he broke rank could be expected to followed by other republicans but i see no sign of that. >> mike: he is probably giving to mccarthy some of his gray hair. up next we will go live to oklahoma city as more severe weather targets the plans. here's what some of our affiliates are covering tonight. fox x and birmingham, alabama, with the arrest of a man killing one police officer and wounding two others near campus. authorities have been searching for the 29-year-old who they said was armed and wearing camouflage body armor and a helmet with a say open fire on officers responding to a domestic disturbance. fox five any work as the county executive asks president trump for foreign travelers to prove they have immunized against measles. that has been the epicenter in the northeast. this is a live look at atlanta from fox five, the big story their ability and our technology investor telling graduating seniors that

. >> interestingly enough justin amash is considered very conservative, very libertarian, like ron paulnges with establishment republicans and now obviously because of his impeachment statement with trump republicans, he's a very sincere, a very ernest man. and i'm not sure i understand his political calculation. he didn't do this for publicity. it's clearly not something that will help him politically in his primary. i think he did it just because he felt he needed to say it. >> do you think other republicans agree with amash, but just won't say it because it's not helpful to them politically? >> i believe that many republicans in the house feel that the president makes all sorts of statements that are very damaging and that they are very upset by and they -- and look, of course, they're upset. look at the 2018 midterm election. it was a disaster for republicans, particularly in swing districts. and many of them blame the president for their defeats. i mean, you were in philadelphia for some time, don, the philadelphia suburbs were an utter killing zone for republicans. and they will t

the matrix and we found he's a taller, better looking mike bloomberg with a hint of libertarian ron paul a splash of aclu. bottom line, he's not going to run so it doesn't matter. he did see something else interesting. so far the democrat proposals have been all headline porn. i don't think what they believe they are proposing is passable. it's true.you thing about gun gd socialized medicine, green new deal. it's never going to get past. they put the green new deal up to a vote in the senate in every single democrat abstained. >> juan: dana, he did say nice things about joe biden. he said biden is a smart guy and he could do a good job. >> dana: he uses the word charisma. there's 24 candidates now you look at their sound bites and who grabbed ear? here in the car, not everybody is glued to their television, although thank you for watching. it's the charisma. who makes you want to listen? do you listen to mark cuban? he calls in, doesn't have to be in the studio, he calls and, like trump. howard schultz can't call in. that's not going to happen for him. i don't know where he is right now.

supremacy has propagated since the media era, you can look back at the libertarian newsletters who ron paul and others were circulating these documents about mud people and the dirty jews taking control of the banking industry, the rothschilds come along before -- the rothschilds come along before the internet. the use these pseudoscientific methods to continue to recruit people through online methods, go find people who had been silenced by their lack of proximity to other people who thought like them. because for a shining moment, it wasn't ok to talk about race dismissively or pejoratively in public. spike lee, as much as i hate to "blackm credit, the kklansman" movie speaks a lot to that. these folks are libertarians first and foremost, so they believe they are not something the government should metal in. imagine if you have a group of people who are already predisposed to not thinking that racism is important being exposed to libertarian ideas policy should look like, and then add a second layer of less informed people who just play games. then you get gamer gate. it was preceded by a

don't know whether you're going to consider that a bipartisan move, but he has been a supporter of ron pauls been a pain in the rear frankly. >> he got kicked off the budget committee in 2012 because he was causing then budget committee chairman paul ryan so many headaches. >> in some ways it's the fullest embodiment of what the tea party said it was about. he came in on the tea party wave. he embodied the tea party movement, this idea that constitution is preeminent and they're going follow the law where it led, and that brought them into conflict with the obama administration. and now you have someone taking that to the fullest extent and coming into conflict with the trump administration. >> that's like the purest version of what the tea party was. the other piece of it was the trump base, functionally, right? they've been coopted be i the president. >> this will be interesting to see what happens with justin amash, if he gets a primary. it's possible. we've seen the president's supporters bristle when there are republicans who run afoul of them and take steps to undermine their politica

he's a libertarian leaning republican, supported the presidential bids of ron paul and john mccain inpanel. you called it -- amash off the rocker long before the attention seeking comments. clearly we know where you stand on this but it does portend a chink in the republican armor. >> there's one person who's not a real republican. he's really a democrat. he was one of ten people to vote against opioid legislation. one of ten to vote against money for -- against school violence in the schools. this guy is a lunatic. he is out of his mind and not a member of the republican conference and he's not in step with the 93% of republicans who support the president. >> all right. katie l katie barlow an attorney is joining us. i want you to weigh in. >> i think what they're considering right now and the key with congressman amash is twitter threat is that he talked about reading the report and what he believed he saw in that report and that the standard for congressional democrats now is different than the prosecutorial standard of robert mueller drafting that report and now it's in speaker pe

justin amash is more of a disciple of ron paul than anyone else. that's the role he relishes.of a libertarian than he is a republican. he's entitled to his opinion. he has to answer to his voters. but he's an outlier on this. i would remind you kirsten sinema also looked at the same report, read the same report and said there was nothing there to it. and we should move on. stuart: is this the libertarian approach? i'm not aware of that. i don't know why on earth they would do this. >> no, no. i think he's an outlier. kevin mccarthy, the minority leader, has said look, he does this a lot for attention. he does sometimes. i respect his opinion but he is dead flat out wrong on this. if you are a betting person, if you are looking to the future, as you do on this show, you really need to be looking at the michael horowitz report and barr and durham and those investigations. those are of consequence. mueller is in the rear view mirror. nothing is going to happen from it. stuart: tell me about pennsylvania because the president goes there today. it's a maga rally. in that state that

propagated since the media era, you could look back at the libertarian newsletters of lyndon laroush, ron paul who were circulate iing long beforee internet existed. i'm also here referring to jessie daniels work on cyber racism where she pointed out sites like american renaissance, storm front and others that picked up on the social scientific research by -- you should not remember this guy's name so i won't. and use these pseudo scientific methods to recruit people to go find people who had been silenced by their lack of proximity to other people who thought like them. because for a moment, a shining moment it wasn't okay to talk about race dismissively or pejoratively in public. spike lee, the black clans man movie -- the tech industry has a strong streak of libertarianism. if you look back at ted nelson, if you look back at a lot of people who are foundational to user interface design, coding practices, coding languages and object oriented programming, these folks are libertarians first and foremost. they believe in certain forms of government in which racism and sexism are really not to b

paul butler and ron klain. jonathan let me start with you, it was your great reporting about the subpoena. what are they looking for? the subpoena? >> what's the committee looking for? the "new york times" has it right. they're trying to square his previous testimony with what michael cohen said, which was that donald trump jr.'s knowledge of the development was more extensive than he said it was. he also made public statements where he said we basically didn't know about this project. so they're trying to square that. this subpoena was issued about three weeks ago, is my understanding, and there's been some toing and froing between the two of them. and now donald trump jr.'s allies are beak building a campaign against richard burr. we've seen quite a few republican lawmakers come out firing shots at him. so this is a civil war inside the republican party in the last 24 hours. >> i wasn't going to start this. i was going to do the fact check. let me put up what you're talking about. this is the statement from d
