The housing crash of 2008, leading into the Great Recession, was one of the worst economic crises in the last hundred years. As governments around the world locked down their economies during the COVID-19 pandemic, the stage was set for a similar collapse in the real estate market, yet for the most part, it didn’t happen. Mark Calabria, author of “Shelter from the Storm”, talks with Matt Kibbe about the ways in which some policymakers were able to avoid making the mistakes of their predecessors, and avoid making a bad situation even worse. This points to the importance of having libertarians and those skeptical of big government in positions of authority within the very bureaucracies they would like to eliminate altogether.

Economist Steve Moore says the GOP is not Reagan's party anymore. Rather, he insists that the Republican Party is Trump's now, and that the billionaire mogul should get whatever he wants. Really? Republicans should just surrender their principles on things like tariffs and stimulus spending because Trump won an election? Bad policy is bad policy, regardless of who is in power. We shouldn't give Trump everything he wants when what he wants is bad for the country. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDRb688ISdE

Matt Kibbe is joined by Kelley Vlahos from the Quincy Institute and Matt Purple of the American Conservative for an emergency special edition of Kibbe on Liberty to sort out what is happening in Afghanistan and whether President Biden should be praised for ending the twenty-year conflict or condemned for mismanaging the withdrawal. Americans have voted for anti-war rhetoric in each of the last six presidential elections, and now at last they are seeing some results. Ending the war was never going to be pretty, but it was nevertheless necessary and long overdue.
