7/11/24 Joseph Solis-Mullen on Washington’s Dangerous and Unnecessary Hostility Towards China

Scott is joined by Joseph Solis-Mullen to talk about China. They start with two articles Solis-Mullen published recently that examine the state of the economic war Washington is trying and failing to wage on Beijing along with the march towards a very real conventional war. They also take a step back and look at the precarious global situation we’re in, drawing connections to the outbreak of World War I and insights from libertarian theory. Discussed on the show: “Washington Takes Another ‘L’ in China Policy” (Libertarian Institute) “Washington is Sprinting (Not Sleepwalking) Into War With China” (Libertarian Institute) “The Outbreak of World War I: A Libertarian Realist Rebuttal” (Mises.org) Wilson's War by Jim Powell Joseph Solis-Mullen is a political scientist and author of The Fake China Threat and Its Very Real Danger.
