If you want security, pursue liberty Posted on December 14, 2015 by Ron Paul Judging by his prime-time speech last week, the final year of Barack Obama’s presidency will be marked by increased militarism abroad and authoritarianism at home. The centerpiece of the president’s speech was his demand for a new law forbidding anyone on the federal government’s terrorist watch list from purchasing a firearm. There has never been a mass shooter who was on the terrorist watch list, so this proposal will not increase security. However, it will decrease liberty. Federal officials can have an American citizen placed on the terrorist watch list based solely on their suspicions that ...
The Decline and Fall of the ‘Mainstream’ Media – and good riddance!

The “mainstream” media is a potent issue this election year, and Donald Trump has surely turned the public’s distrust of the Fourth Estate into electoral gold. Regardless of what one thinks of Trump himself, his ability to turn a media pile- on into an asset has got to make one wonder what is it about the journalistic profession, circa 2015, that inspires such antipathy. Perhaps it’s what they don’t report that’s responsible for the general disdain in which they are held. Take, for example, this piece in the New York Times on Tashfeen Malik’s previously unreported Facebook postings, by Matt Apuzzo, Michael S. Schmidt, and Julia Preston. The first ...
Talking freedom but practicing fear

The president employs scare tactics to diminish liberties The most memorable line in President Obama's Oval Office Sunday speech was his declaration that "freedom is more powerful than fear." That epigram might have made John F. Kennedy's speechwriters beam. But it is ludicrous to hear such a comment from a president who has spent almost seven years fear-mongering to promote one federal power grab after another. Mr. Obama has done more than any other president to sway Americans to perceive all gun owners as threats to public safety. The president declared, "Congress should act to make sure no one on a no-fly list is able to buy a gun." But the no-fly list has ...

Such sad news... Please, do not let this turn into a debate on the existence of God. Please let it be what it is. A request for prayers if you pray. Nothing else is being asked other than pray if you do and share if you can. I am late in finding this out, but I was just told that Ron Paul's daughter, Lori Paul Pyeatt, is in very serious condition with severe cancer that has metastasized, and her liver may now be failing!! The Ron Paul Family is asking for our prayers. Years ago, when Carol Paul was given very few hours to live THE RON PAUL MOVEMENT got out the message and created a nationwide prayer chain ---- and Carol made it through when every doctor had given up! Please, Pray ...

Squandered Resources on College Education

Most college students do not belong in college. I am not by myself in this assessment. Washington Post columnist Robert Samuelson said, “It’s time to drop the college-for-all crusade,” adding that “the college-for-all crusade has outlived its usefulness.” Richard Vedder, professor emeritus of economics at Ohio University, reports that “the U.S. Labor Department says the majority of new American jobs over the next decade do not need a college degree. We have a six- digit number of college-educated janitors in the U.S.” Vedder adds that there are “one-third of a million waiters and waitresses with college degrees.” More than one-third of currently ...
Revolt Against the Fourth Estate

In the feudal era there were the “three estates”—the clergy, the nobility, and the commons. The first and second were eradicated in Robespierre’s Revolution. But in the 18th and 19th century, Edmund Burke and Thomas Carlyle identified what the latter called a “stupendous Fourth Estate.” Wrote William Thackeray: “Of the Corporation of the Goosequill — of the Press … of the fourth estate. … There she is — the great engine — she never sleeps. She has her ambassadors in every quarter of the world — her courtiers upon every road. Her officers march along with armies, and her envoys walk into statesmen’s cabinets.” The ...

Marco Rubio takes his place on the shelf of paid for presidential candidates that insure Americans taxpayers will continue to be fleeced in the billions upon billions Two days after what has been called a strong performance at the Republican debate, Marco Rubio has received the backing of billionaire Zionist and Israeli Firster Paul Singer. Yes the same Paul Singer who funds and powers up The Paul E. Singer Foundation and its Israeli Firster Director and US mainstream media darling Dan Senor to buy off Congress to insure that Israel continues to fleece U.S. taxpayers in the billions upon billions of dollars with nothing in return for the American people. A Rubio campaign aide confirmed ...
Muslim Group Calls for Ben Carson to Drop Out – Then He Delivers a Knock-Out Punch

Muslim Group Calls for Ben Carson to Drop Out – Then He Delivers a Knock-Out Punch Top tier GOP presidential candidate Ben Carson now has the “Muslim advocacy” group CAIR in his crosshairs. The group with several links to terrorism publicly denounced Carson and called for him to withdraw from the presidential race after Carson made controversial comments regarding whether he would support a Muslim for president. Carson’s assertion that Shariah law is not compatible with the United States Constitution did not sit well with many people, including GOP candidates like Ted Cruz and Carly Fiorina (who has made her pro-Muslim views clear in speeches and a memoir). Even after ...

Media Caught Lying AGAIN About Another GOP Presidential Candidate If you had to come up with a theme for this 2016 Republican presidential primary race, it would have to be how the media continually inserts themselves into the story by manipulating the facts and outright misrepresenting what GOP candidates say. The latest scandal involving the media — in a growing list of them — involves Donald Trump. During a recent campaign appearance, he was asked by a reporter if he would support a database to register Muslims in the U.S. The way the story was reported, made it sound as though Trump was calling for an all-encompassing database for all Muslims present in the U.S. Trump ...

The Dollar’s Had Its “1914 Moment” It’s Nov. 30, dear reader. And like a train pulling up to the platform on time, CNBC reports: “IMF Expected to Include Yuan in SDR Currency Basket.” Throughout the year, our colleague Jim Rickards has mapped out the path toward the new special drawing right -- also known as “world money”: Nov. 30, 2015 -- IMF executive committee votes to include Chinese yuan in the SDR basket.

Why is Turkey Not in Hot Water?

By any estimate, Turkey should be in hot water today. First, after violating Greek airspace thousands of times per year, after routinely violating Syrian airspace and territory in support of jihadists seeking to overthrow the government, Turkish President Racep Erdogan decided to shoot down a Russian SU-24 that may or may not have veered into Turkish airspace for a maximum of 17 seconds. In order to carry out such an operation, it is clear that the Turkish F-16s would have had to be lying in wait to ambush the Russians. Fellow NATO allies are trying to make supportive sounds, but behind the scenes we hear there is much grumbling over such an astonishingly reckless act. After all, the ...

Erdogan Megalomania by Stephen Lendman He’s a despotic loose cannon, a close US imperial ally, one of 28 NATO members - part of its killing machine war on humanity. Downing Russia’s aircraft was an act of war - Washington the likely orchestrator, both nations acting conspiratorially - part of longstanding US-led Putin-bashing, the one world leader above all others challenging America’s imperial agenda forthrightly, deserving universal praise and support. On Thursday, Erdogan brashly, recklessly and defiantly said he’ll continue downing Russian aircraft on the phony pretext of Turkish airspace violations - bluster without proof. “If another violation of our ...
Who Should Pay For the Syrian Refugees?

Last week the US House dealt a blow to President Obama’s plan to resettle 10,000 Syrians fleeing their war-torn homeland. On a vote of 289-137, including 47 Democrats, the House voted to require the FBI to closely vet any applicant from Syria and to guarantee that none of them pose a threat to the US. Effectively this will shut down the program. The House legislation was brought to the Floor after last week’s attacks in Paris that left more than 120 people dead, and for which ISIS claimed responsibility. With the year-long US bombing campaign against ISIS in Syria and Iraq, there is a good deal of concern that among those 10,000 to be settled here there might be some who wish ...
Policy of Intervention Leads to Paris-Style Massacres – Ron Paul

Sputnik... The Paris attacks have prompted American war-hawks to advocate even more US intervention in the Middle East; unfortunately, none of them have ever tried to understand the genuine motivation of the attackers, former Republican congressman Ron Paul underscores. Predictably, the Paris massacre has provoked a unanimous call for more US intervention from American policymakers; however, none of them yet posed the question how it all began and why the attacks happened, American politician, author and former Republican congressman Dr. Ron Paul stresses. "Nobody ever wants to ask what about three million people since the year 2001 have died because of the consequences of our ...
Paris and What Should Be Done

The horrific attacks in Paris on Friday have, predictably, led to much over- reaction and demands that we do more of the exact things that radicalize people and make them want to attack us. The French military wasted no time bombing Syria in retaliation for the attacks, though it is not known where exactly the attackers were from. Thousands of ISIS fighters in Syria are not Syrian, but came to Syria to overthrow the Assad government from a number of foreign countries — including from France and the US. Ironically, the overthrow of Assad has also been the goal of both the US and France since at least 2011. Because the US and its allies are essentially on the same side as ISIS and ...

The real reason Obama nixed the Keystone Pipeline Posted on November 11, 2015 by John Myers Views: 31,523 President Barack Obama’s rejection of the Keystone XL Pipeline project, which would have provided 40,000 jobs and greater oil security for the United States, has less to do with the president being pro-Green and more to do with him being anti-white. Sound crazy? Not to renowned writer, economist and political analyst Ben Stein who said of Obama last year: “This president is the most racist president there has ever been in America. He is purposely trying to use race to divide Americans.” Stein added that Obama first used divisive issues to get votes and now so as to ...

Can a book bring down the Clinton Dynasty?

(NaturalNews) People who pay attention to politics would be understandably skeptical that a book about the Clintons could destroy Hillary's presidential campaign. The Clinton political dynasty has survived a long list of scandals. Bill Clinton is one of only two presidents in American history to have been impeached by the House of Representatives. The fact that the Senate failed to convict President Clinton and remove him from office is an example of just how resilient Bill Clinton's political career has been. His intellect and powerful charisma has served him well. Another key factor was the mainstream media's extreme bias towards defending Bill Clinton. If you go back and ...

His most memorable moment came in the second debate when Donald Trump opened the night by calling Paul ugly. His performance in Tuesday’s debate was ...

What is the biggest threat to the national security of the United States? There are several nominees for the position. In the post-9/11 world, it used to be incontestable that the prize goes to al-Qaeda. No more. That the former head of the CIA, David Petraeus, could openly call for an alliance with the heirs of Osama bin Laden is proof positive, in my view, that the baton has been passed to other entrants. Okay, then, what about ISIS, a.k.a. the “Islamic State”? Surely these head- choppers, whose brutal crimes make al-Qaeda look “moderate,” qualify for the prize? Well, not exactly, at least in the estimation of our wise rulers, since a) US-supported Syrian rebels of ...

George Bush Sr. Just Made Some Comments about “Dubya” That Will Surprise You George HW Bush is nearing the end of his life. This means he’s taking off the kid gloves, refusing to pull punches and goes off to tell it like it is. In a recent interview he was asked what he thought about the 8 years his son spent in office. While you would think the former President would gush about all the things his son did in office that wasn’t exactly the case. Mind you he didn’t bash his son, but he definitely said some things that’ll shock people on both the left and the right. IJ Review writes: During the first Gulf War, President George H.W. Bush stopped short of ...

"We have not gone more than eight days without a mass shooting in this country this year," Obama begins in the email. "That means that each week, more families are grieving, more communities are being pieced back together. As a nation, we're holding everyone affected by these heartbreaking events in our prayers."
