by Ron Paul

My first reaction to news earlier this month that the Syrian government had been overthrown was, how much did we have to do with it; how involved was the CIA; and how much is it going to cost.

One of the most encouraging and promising things President-elect Trump said in his post-election acceptance speech was, “I’m not going to start a war.

Government Gaslights People about the Economy

by Ron Paul

Public opinion polls consistently show the economy is one of the top issues, if not the top issue, for American voters.

When you take on the role of the world’s policeman, don’t be surprised when countries who cannot fight their own wars call “911.” That is exactly what is happening to the United States on two fronts and it is bankrupting our country, depleting the military that should serve our own national interest, and threatening to … Read more
