On this episode of Radio Rothbard, Ryan McMaken and Tho Bishop dive into the FBI’s raid of Donald Trump. At a time when half the country already questions the legitimacy of the federal government, what may be the lasting consequences of this political escalation? What steps could Republican governors take if they want to be serious about reigning in the feds? And, was The X-Files the original QAnon? Ryan and Tho consider these questions and more.
