In this week’s update, coverage continues from YAL’s 5thannual national convention. Rep. Amash continues to be front and center inopposition of NSA spying and the domestic national security state. Rand Paulcontinues to battle New Jersey Governor Chris Christie- who did clearly startthe ordeal. It was the media that inserted Rand’s name- but there’s no doubtwho Gov. Bacon was talking about. The Ron Paul Channel is set for launch onMonday, 8/12. Unfortunately, it will be at a cost of $9.99/mo. Not sure whatthe network will me for this podcast- as together with Ron Paul’s America, it seems that the Doctor is swooping in on theliberty media market share. In other news, the leftists and their minions haveapparently manufactured a new scandal, involving Iowa State Senator KentSorenson. There is no evidence that Dr. Paul had any knowledge or involvementin this- why would one State Senator’s endorsement be worth $200k?
