Bruce Fein's The Liberty Perspective
Congress voter fraud cyber security
Something is rotten in the state of our electronic voting practices. They are recklessly wandering toward online voting despite their high vulnerable to hacking and manipulation by cyberspace clowns, partisans, enemies, or all three.
Nikki Haley Hillary Clinton Donald Trump on foreign policy
Donald Trump nominated Nikki Haley as the administration's ambassador to the United Nations. She seems to have mistaken the signal. She thinks she's the Nikki Haley ambassador to the U.N. Or maybe Hillary Clinton's.
Trump Syria Obama Clinton Rice
President Donald Trump would show genius by stopping our military caper in Syria that was stupidly and unconstitutionally begun by President Barack Obama without a congressional declaration of war.
EpiPen maker Mylan firefighter not fire
The mainstream media routinely mistakes the firefighter for the fire. Emblematic has been the frenzy over the consumer cost of Mylan's EpiPen(r) Auto-Injectors to treat life-threatening allergic reactions.
EPA renewable fuel standards burden small refiners
Something is rotten in the Environmental Protection Agency's regulatory matrix governing the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) mandated by Energy Policy Act of 2005. The RFS was designed to diminish petroleum imports and carbon dioxide emissions. But it imposes a punishing and fraud-ridden burden on small fuel manufacturers.
Liberal Trump hysteria, Salem witch trials
Liberal hysteria over President Donald Trump's legally impeccable international disengagements has surpassed the hysteria that fueled the Salem Witch Trials. But there is no Arthur Miller among the contemporary glitterati to dramatize the frenzy.
Paris Climate Accord was no treaty
The mainstream media has tortured the truth in reporting on President Donald Trump's renunciation of the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement. It's been called a treaty, but it was nothing of the sort. Instead, it was a unilateral act by President Obama that had no basis in the U.S. Constitution.
Obama vandalized Fourth Amendment
The Fourth Amendment's barriers to unreasonable searches and seizures don't get the attention the First Amendment does, but they're at least as important as a guarantee of liberty.
NATO Article 5: The law bows to power
Article 5 of the 29-member North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) has been willfully misinterpreted to accommodate the vaulting ambition of the American Empire for world domination.
Trump follow Reagan, exit Somalia
President Donald Trump should terminate the co-belligerency of the United States with Somalia in its war against Al Shabab. Its government is clannish, illegitimate, and staggeringly corrupt. it has the ignominy of having been listed as the most corrupt nation in the world by Transparency International for 10 consecutive years. And it is irrelevant to the national security of the United States.
A primer on special prosecutors
Special prosecutors enjoy more or less autonomy within the Executive Branch to provide public confidence that their investigatory and prosecutorial decisions will not be compromised by a conflict-of-interest.
Trump and impeachment: A primer
Impeachment of the president has returned as a topic of conversation among the chattering class.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions should appeal BMI music case
Attorney General Jeff Sessions has been lobbied furiously by music industry behemoths to refrain from appealing a wayward decision of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York in United States of America v. BMI (September 16, 2016). It threatens ready public access to popular copyrighted music at competitive prices.
Border adjustment and the Constitution
Reasonable people may disagree about the wisdom of a "border adjustment" policy that promotes Buy America. But there can be no reasonable dispute that a federal public policy of Buy America enshrined in the federal tax or tariff code would pass constitutional scrutiny.
American Optometric Association wants to strangle Internet sales
The American Revolution had its Benedict Arnold. The Commerce Clause of the U.S. Constitution has its American Optometric Association (AOA) with its war against interstate ocular telemedicine. Thereby hangs a tale.
Trump’s risk-free escape from Afghanistan quagmire
President Donald Trump inherited a 15-year-old unwinnable, unconstitutional war in Afghanistan. At its high-water mark, the war was hemorrhaging dollars at a staggering rate of $128 billion per annum, or more than $300 million per day.
Google wallet, PayPal, student aid, tax refunds strangled by new regulations
Be wary whenever a federal agency issues a professedly benign regulation. Even the devil can quote scripture.
Let’s make a deal … over North Korea
As the drumbeats for war with North Korea grow louder, it's time to imagine a peaceful solution to the crisis that would appeal to the author of "The Art of the Deal." There's room for a bargain with China in which it would effectively police its client state, in return for American give-ups that we'd be better off without.
Bill Ackman pioneers new variety of unfair trading
There's a first time for every novel unfairness in the securities industry or otherwise. There has to be. If novelty justified stasis, the law would become a petrified forest.
