Is the future of the GOP more libertarian, nationalist, or, somehow, both?
Joining us today is Vivek Ramaswamy, entrepreneur, author, and former presidential candidate. He's been making a hard pitch for what he's called a "libertarian-nationalist alliance" for the past several months. He was at the 2024 Libertarian National Convention where he tried to convince libertarians to vote Republican. Reason's Zach Weissmueller also saw Ramaswamy at the Republican National Convention, where he was trying to...

- On November 4, 2018, the Kansas City Health Department soaked food in bleach to stop an organization called Free Hot Soup from feeding the homeless. Why? The group didn’t have a city permit and volunteers distributing the food lacked formal training. Health officials insisted they were protecting a vulnerable community, then left the bleach-tainted meals behind for the homeless to rummage through. #KansasCity #Missouri #homeless #charity #history #historyfacts

- Kamala Harris and a lot of other politicians say making billionaires pay their "fair share" would generate revenue that the government could use to fix a lot of problems.
The federal government spent over $16 billion per day last year. So the billionaires’ tax would keep the government running for…three days. And seizing all the assets of America’s billionaires would fund the government for only nine months. #economics #taxes #government #kamalaharris

The Republican Party has toned down the rhetoric about the deep state and any talk of vengeance against former President Donald Trump's political enemies in this year's Republican National Convention. With Trump in a commanding polling lead following a near-assassination, the convention's theme is "unity."
"Just like our ancestors, we must now come together, rise above past differences. Any disagreements have to be put aside, and go forward united as one people, one nation, pledging allegiance to one great, beautiful—I think it's so beautiful—American flag," Trump said in his closing speech.

America's national debt is out of control. More than $8.1 trillion was added to the gross federal debt under the Trump administration, according to U.S. Treasury Department estimates.

Reason's Zach Weissmueller asked delegates and attendees at the 2024 Republican National Convention whether Donald Trump is going to do anything about the debt should he be elected for a second term.

Best-selling science and technology author Matt Ridley and University of Utah virologist Stephen Goldstein debate the resolution: "It is likely that the SARS-CoV-2 virus originated in the Wuhan laboratory in China."
Defending the resolution is Ridley, the author of 10 books, including Viral: The Search for the Origin of COVID-19. He sat in the U.K.'s House of Lords between 2013 and 2021 and served on the Science and Technology Select Committee. He is a fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, a fellow at the Academy of Medical Sciences, and a foreign honorary member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
