Back to EpisodesClark Neily on Defending Liberty, Limiting Government, and Reforming America’s Justice System
Description
What happens when government power goes unchecked?
In this episode of Voices of Liberty, Sean Themea sits down with constitutional attorney and Cato Institute Senior Vice President Clark Neily to discuss the principles that first drew him to the liberty movement, his role in the landmark D.C. v. Heller Supreme Court case, and why he believes protecting individual rights starts with limiting government power.
Neily explains the constitutional foundations of self-defense, the dangers of over criminalization, civil forfeiture, qualified immunity, and the growing threat posed by government surveillance and facial recognition technology. He also shares why criminal justice reform should be a priority for anyone who cares about freedom and accountability.
The conversation closes with a powerful message on persuasion, courage, humility, and how advocates for liberty can effectively create lasting change in their communities.
