Update on Ian Freeman’s Case
Reminder: Our online Zoom conference on open borders continues this evening, October 21, with John Washington, the author of the excellent new book The Case for Open Borders. 7 p.m.-8 p.m. Eastern Time. Register here.
Reminder: I’ll be speaking at the JFK Lancer conference and also at the CAPA conference, which are being held on November 22-24 in Dallas. Both of them are fantastic JFK-assassination-related conferences. I highly recommend registering for both and then picking and choosing which sessions you would like to attend at both conferences. I will have some of my JFK books there to autograph and sell at a discounted price. I hope to see you there!

New Free Ian website and petition
A brand new great website has just popped up entitled FreeIanNow.org. (Notice the .org, not .com.) Please go visit the website and particularly note their PETITION.

Ian’s appeal

A 3-judge panel of the appellate court will read those briefs. That panel will then decide on whether to schedule the case for oral arguments. Given the complex issues that the case presents, in my opinion the Court will sche
Article from The Future of Freedom Foundation
The Future of Freedom Foundation (FFF) is a leading voice in libertarian thought, tirelessly advocating for individual liberty, free markets, and limited government. Established in 1989, the FFF is more than just a think tank; it’s a hub for intellectual exploration and policy advocacy that draws on the classical liberal tradition and Austrian economics. Through insightful articles, videos, and events featuring top libertarian minds, the organization provides a robust critique of mainstream politics and policies, championing instead the principles that underlie a truly free society. For anyone seeking a principled stand for freedom and limited government, the Future of Freedom Foundation serves as an invaluable resource and an inspiring beacon.
