It's the RANT LINE hour. But before playing Rants, we take more calls on whether people would accept shutdown instructions again from state or federal government.

We discuss the Covid shutdowns and ask if you'd do it again - after listening to a cut from Andrew Cuomo predicting that people no longer trust the government like before. Then Joe Markley tells us about how bad the last day of a legislative session can be in Hartford.

In a new Wall Street Journal oped, Ben Lieberman, former senior counsel on the U.S. House Committee on Energy and Commerce and currently a Senior Fellow with the Competitive Enterprise Institute, writes about the Biden administration's new attack on Americans' air conditioners. Then we talk Net Neutrality with Donald Kimball of YoungVoices.org.

We play RANTS, take calls, and then at 540 talk to Tom Scott!

We talk more national politics, the expanding death count in Jolly Ned's tree caper, and who would be Michelle Obama's runningmate if the rumors of her replacing Biden are true. Then, our regular guest from YoungVoices.org, Juan Villasmil, explains why in his latest column in The Hill he argues that Biden won't win reelection if he doesn't get tough on the border.

Whenever the topic of a running mate comes up, people are excited about Tulsi Gabbard. We discuss with Jim Watkins, host of the Jim Watkins is Speaking Out podcast. Visit JimWatkins1.com. Then, Todd discusses Veep possibilities and today's ridiculous Hartford Courant front page.

Scott called for ideas on how to launch a campaign to end the importation of fireworks from China. Todd liked the idea, and the two will work on it. Plus, we continued airing today's RANTS. You can Rant anytime at 860-751-4698.

Before RANTS, Todd shares his theory - that Critical Race Theory, which blames whites who live today for slavery, is a new system of racism designed to give the left the racial upper hand. Then, we play RANTS and discuss banning fireworks from China, and idea presented by Scott. Call the Rant Line at 860-751-4698.

We play RANTS, talk to some wonderful people, and chat with state senator Rob Sampson on what's happening in Hartford as the legislative session wraps next week.

We take phone calls on Israel for the first half of the hour, then we get commentary on a bill in congress designed to protect Israel from free speech from Juan P. Villasmil. Follow him on X - @RealJPVillasmil

Last night, NYPD went in to Hamilton Hall at Columbia University and emptied it of student occupiers, as a corner is turned in the arc of official response to campus mahem escalates. Todd asks, where is this taking us? What do you imagine is in the cards?

It's our RANT LINE hour. We take calls on college protests, play Rants, and - and are happily joined by Tom Scott!

Victoria Sparks, an immigrant from Ukraine, represents Indiana in Congress and voted against aid to Ukraine. The money, she says, isn't spent wisely. Which leads to a conversation on big government and wasteful spending. Then we talk with social media CEO John Matze about Tik Tok - what is congress really trying to do by regulating the company and is it a good idea?

We've been talking alot about Freedom of Speech for those college kids, but today we're talking about the proper punishment for the lawbreakers with Jim Watkins, host of the Jim Watkins is Speaking Out podcast. Visit JimWatkins1.com. Then, we listen to Joe Rogan question the existence of God and share reactions.

We take calls, play RANTS, then welcome Michael Liebowitz back the the show. Liebo is the host of The Rational Egoist Podcast. Call 860-751-4698 to RANT!

We talk free speech rights and the university protests. Then, Leora Levy joins us to discuss the war in Israel.

The FTC ruled last week that non-compete agreements that employers put in agreements with employees are no longer allowed. But Alden Abbott says the FTC has no right to make that decision. And he should know, he's the former General Counsel for the FTC, currently a Senior Research Fellow with the Mercatus Center. Then, we discuss the college protests - and Todd asks, why should conservatives not celebrate the protection of free speech rights rather than be upset at them being exercised?
