The Ron Paul Liberty Report

Left & Right Are Jointly Destroying Freedom of Speech

Freedom of Speech was included as the First Amendment for a reason. It's that important! Without the ability to speak freely and protest against the government, liberty is lost. Unfortunately, as with so many things when government power expands too far, freedom of speech becomes politicized. "Free speech for me, but not for thee." Both Left & Right will embrace censorship and cracking down on peaceful protests, if they believe it will help them "win." But once freedom of speech is sacrificed, the only "winner" is government power. Both the Left & the Right lose their liberties.

75 Years Of Perpetual War Is Enough -- Shut Down NATO

Final Nail in America’s Coffin?

U.S. Representatives Waving The Ukraine Flag At The Capitol -- While Sending ANOTHER $60 Billion!

According to a new article by Seymour Hersh, CIA Director William Burns traveled to Kiev earlier this year to ask Zelensky to stop skimming so much off the top of US aid money. Apparently his top generals were angry that he was skimming more than they were! Meanwhile Congress voted to send $60 billion MORE to the corrupt regime. With the money approved, calls are now going out for Western TROOPS to be sent to Ukraine. Also today: Trump's alleged "hush money" is "election interference"?

Counterfeiting Always Ruins The Counterfeiter -- Bring Our Troops Home & End The Fed!

The government and the Fed are a tag-team of power that have pummeled America. The former spends trillions (that it doesn’t have) pretending to rule the world. The latter counterfeits those trillions into existence, destroying our economy and driving prices into the stratosphere. There can be no economic freedom living under this morally corrupt couple. Only ultimate bankruptcy. The marriage of Bank & State needs to be annulled.

The FISA Bill's Shocking Police State Powers

Buried deep in the FISA Section 702 re-authorization bill is absolutely shocking language exponentially broadening the US government's ability to spy on Americans without a warrant.

Also today: The US Government has submitted its "assurances" to the UK regarding the Assange extradition plan. It's not good.

FISA Exchanges Real Liberty for Phantom Security.

Can't We Have A Speaker That Isn't Obsessed With Sending Our Money To Other Countries?

The revolt against House Speaker Mike Johnson is picking up steam, as Johnson revealed plans to take several MASSIVE foreign spending bills to the floor this week. Tying foreign aid to protecting the borders at home - once a staple in Johnson's rhetoric - has been tossed aside. Rep. Thomas Massie announced he would co-sponsor a bill to vacate the Chair - an ouster of Johnson.

Biden Rightfully Tells Netanyahu That America Won't Support An Attack On Iran

Tired of Decade After Decade of Failed Foreign Wars? Mitch McConnell Isn't

Does this seem a bit tawdry and unseemly?
