Volume 3, Issue 21 | July 2024

"Humanity should question itself, once more, about the absurd and always unfair phenomenon of war, on whose stage of death and pain only remains standing the negotiating table that could and should have prevented it." -Pope John Paul II

In this Issue... 

Hope everyone's summer has been pleasant. Coming out of the heat of July, a bit late, but hopefully for the last time. Along those lines, we have posted a paid intern position, details on the webpage. If you know anyone who wants to make some money learning politics and marketing for the next few months, please, pass the information along.

In this edition, Ryan takes a breath and reflects on the progress we have made this year. Rob breaks down the crazy situation at the NC State Board of Elections so far, Joshua looks at the history or sound money in our state, and Mike Munger shares another article he wrote for AEIR. Additionally, Trevor's Takes is back, and we review the book Manipulated, by Theresa Payton, cybersecurity expert and the first woman to hold the CIO position in the white house.

Several candidates contributed this month, including Steve Feldman who breaks down his position on some controversial issues as well as highlighting the book he wrote (go buy it!) and Michael Barrick who talks about the Blackberry festival with Mike Ross and gives his thoughts on respect for the flag. Mises Club Carolinas summer event is this weekend, we have a smorgasbord of memes this week, Liberty Babes is all new, and we close out with Cape Fear LP saving lives and Jeff Scott pondering if Charlotte Pride is showing political bias. Enjoy!
