Tonight’s live episode of The
Independents (Fox Business Network, 9 p.m. ET, 6 p.m. PT,
with re-airs three hours later) will be filled with familiar
Reason characters. Besides yours truly, there
will be Managing Editor Katherine
Mangu-Ward, who will be one half of the Party Panel (along with
former GOP congressman Thaddeus McCotter), and will
talk about the administration’s heavily redacted
legal justification for assassinating U.S. citizens, the
Republican foreign-policy split between Dick Cheney and Sen.
Rand Paul (R-Kentucky), the laughable notion by Minority Leader
Harry Reid (D-Nevada) that when it comes to financial backers, the
Democratic Party “doesn’t
have billionaires“; plus the lurid claims made in the new
Clinton-Obama page-turner
Blood Feud.
Are you watching the House hearings with Internal Revenue
Service Commissioner John Koskinenon the missing IRS emails? Well,
Reason Senior Editor Peter Suderman
probably is, and since he broke the relevant story about the IRS
having a contract with an email backup company, he shall
certainly add value. Remember the federal government’s
controversial Operation
Choke Point that allegedly targets politically disfavorable
businesses for prosecutorial sanction? Brian Wise from the United
States Consumer Coalition will be on to discuss the latest
developments, which involve
cease-and-desist letters. And remember how international
borders are crumbling to meaninglessness in the Middle East and in
Russia’s Near Abroad? Michael
Weiss of The Interpreter will add his two cents.
