On Saturday, I was interviewed by hosts Joshua Bennett and Michael Anderson at KFAR radio in Fairbanks, Alaska regarding a number or issues in the news. The interview started with a discussion of the indictment of 13 Russian citizens and three companies that United States Special Counsel Robert Mueller had announced the day before. Other topics discussed in the wide-ranging interview include more aspects of the ongoing “Russiagate” investigation, the possibility of the United States government supporting a military coup in Venezuela, US sanctions against North Korea, the US government’s mass surveillance program, the drug war, rising tensions between the US and Russia, huge increases in US government spending, a gas tax increase, intervention in Syria, and the killings last week at a Florida high school.
