LISTEN TO THE PODCAST:      The Anti-Lockdown Movement Is Large and Growing By Jeffrey A. Tucker

Feeling outgunned, outnumbered, overpowered, smothered, and censored? Many people who oppose Covid lockdowns and all their associated restrictions feel this way. It’s hard not to. You can hardly post on social media without triggering warnings, corrections, and sometimes outright blocks.
