Скачать или смотреть EP143: Free Ian Freeman with Mark Edge - Gracearchy with Jim Babka

Ian Freeman, a voluntaryist and Bitcoin distributor, was prosecuted for his political views, lied about by the Justice Department, and unjustly convicted based on flimsy, frame-up charges by the IRS. In July, 2023, a couple of weeks before his appeal was denied, we sat down to talk about both Ian as a person and his criminal case with his Free Talk Live partner, Mark Edge. With Mark's help, we walk through the case, especially the convictions. Now, it's time to act - FreeIanNow.org

This episode was originally recorded in July, 2025.
Ian Freeman's appeal was denied on July 31.
