2021 August 4 The Bryan Hyde Show hour two

<p>We all know people who seem to live in a perpetual state of crisis. Lately it seems like our societies are being kept in a state of crisis over a virus that is survived by 99% of the people who catch it. <a href="https://fee.org/articles/mask-mandate-reinstated-in-san-francisco-as-daily-covid-deaths-hit-zero/" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><u>Jon Miltimore takes a closer look at how mandates are ramping up even in areas where daily Covid deaths are zero</u></a>.</p> <p>I try not to wallow in political news but when I want a solid take on what's going on, it's hard to beat Pat Buchanan. His latest column on <a href="https://www.intellectualtakeout.org/america-s--great-leap-forward--into-socialism/" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><u>America's great leap forward into socialism</u></a> is on target.</p> <p>The unfathomable amount of public debt that is being incurred by our government can't be measured in dollars alone. As <a href="https://www.aier.org/article/the-real-cost-of-public-debt-is-not-a-dollar-amount-its-freedom/" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><u>Jonathan W. Plante explains, the real cost of public debt includes a loss of freedom</u></a>.</p> <p>Who is the strongest defender of free speech today?

The good news is that other organizations are stepping up to fill the gap.</p> <p><a href="https://thebryanhydeshow.com/f/show-notes-for-august-4-2021"><strong>www.thebryanhydeshow.com</strong></a></p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/loving-liberty/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/loving-liberty/support</a>
