T.T. 28: Living Aspirations of Liberty
I have a dream... of Ending the Fed, and turning the HQ — in my home city, D.C. — into a museum for Bitcoin and the history of "what is money?"
Hola amigos,
Greetings from El Zonte!
Another crazy week.
I spoke with Congressman Thomas Massie a couple days ago.
That’s right.
Representative Massie.
One of the ONLY living congressman for whom the classic label “statesman” would actually be deserved.
The magic of “Spaces with Josie”
Seriously.
Check it out.
I got five minutes with Congressman Massie!
The topic of the full two hour “Spaces” (on “X”) was FARM FREEDOM.
He and a couple other House Representatives were just about to go vote on several amendments they had proposed to defend American food sovereignty.
I was lucky enough to ask the final question before they had to dash off to the House floor to give speeches and vote!
Five full minutes Q&A
Check it out here:
(note to email subscribers — video is embedded on the Substack webpage version of this)
Pretty cool.
I got Thomas Massie to speak to thousands of people about how the Federal Reserve is the absolute worst:
"I say they were the arsonists. They set the fire that was inflation. Then they come in and they act like they're the firefighters!"
— Congressman Thomas Massie
The rest of his answer was incredibly interesting as well.
Similar from Rep. Spartz, who was there alongside Rep. Massie.
She was a pleasant surprise, and her answer is worth hearing as well. She even referenced Hayek in it!
All in a five minute clip, with yours truly and thousands of listeners.
If you’re still skimming but didn’t click play on the video above, I encourage you to actually do so…

Other big news for Bitcoiners and Libertarians:
new “Liberty Lockdown” episode:
90 minute interview with
Stephan Livera + Daniel Prince
Another big meeting of worlds.
Two of the best Bitcoiner podcast hosts.
On the show of my favorite big libertarian podcast interviewer of Bitcoiners!
And I helped make it happen :)
Seriously!
I even got a shoutout by name within the first two minutes:
Pretty cool…
And the full interview is worth watching.
Seriously.
They cover a LOT of topics that more people need to hear.
Hyperlink set to the start of the actual interview:
That’s all for this week.
I’m sure I’ll do another “Podcast Hype” newsletter soon unpacking the MANY clips worth highlighting from that interview.
Similar to the one I did for Clint Russell’s other recent big Bitcoiner episode.
The one with Saifedean, for which I wrote my first “Podcast Hype” post.
Podcast Hype ~ SAIFEDEAN on "LIBERTY LOCKDOWN"
You’ve probably heard the phrase “signal to noise” ratio. A lot of podcasts have a lot of noise. But not here. Not this coming episode. This is gonna be extremely “high signal”:
What a time to be alive.
Crazy. Absolutely crazy time.
But it’s worth emphasizing that good things are happening.
People fighting (peacefully) for solutions.
I’m witnessing it firsthand.
I’m interacting with it, somehow, directly.
And I enjoy sharing this journey with all of you, dear readers!
See ya next week :)

Adios until next week!
