Will China or Russia Fill The Gap When The Federal Reserve Fails?

The idea that The Fed could make dollars that they can counterfeit "as good as gold" was always a fairy tale. The idea that the Fed would create a "stable" currency was always a fairy tale. The idea that the Fed could "run" the economy, or prevent recessions and depressions was always a fairy tale. The Fed destroys the economy and brings about depressions. All fairy tales must come to an end. But what will replace it?

Don't Blame Covid or Ukraine For Soaring Prices -- Blame The Fed!

With prices skyrocketing, the expected finger-pointing has arrived. While there's plenty peripheral blame that is certainly warranted, problems are not solved by tinkering with the periphery. You solve problems by going directly to the source. 

The root source of inflation is always The Federal Reserve, for it has the unconstitutional power of counterfeiting dollars out-of-thin-air. Until this immoral practice is addressed and forbidden, the problems of inflation will never be solved.

As Inflation Rages, US House Approves MASSIVE Aid To Ukraine!

First it was $6 billion, then Biden made it $10 billion, then the US House upped the ante again: more than $13 billion US taxpayer dollars will be shipped to Ukraine. As Americans are ravaged by inflation at the supermarket and skyrocketing gasoline prices, will they still cheer for their money being sent overseas? Also today, it's the Pentagon vs. the State Dept. on escalating in Ukraine. Guess who's most hawkish?

US Biolabs In Ukraine? Victoria Nuland Spills The Beans

After all the "fact check" organizations assured us it was "Russian disinformation" and "fake news," US Assistant Secretary of State Victoria "F the EU" Nuland admitted the existence of biolabs in Senate testimony and stated that the US was working with Ukraine to keep the "research" at those labs from falling into Russian hands. Also today: the bizarre Polish jet fighter saga, political persecution of a Jan. 6th protester, and Florida OKs off-label treatments for covid.

Breaking: Biden Bans Russian Oil. Are We Committing Economic Suicide Over Ukraine?

President Biden has just announced a US ban on Russian oil and other energy supplies, suggesting that now is the time to accelerate the transition to "clean energy." As gas prices reach uncharted territory, are Americans being asked to commit economic suicide for Ukraine's "democracy"? Also: More insane "no fly zone" talk from Congress.

Is Putin the New Coronavirus?

By Ron Paul

President Biden’s “maskless” State of the Union signifies the near-end of the COVID tyranny we have lived under for the past two years. Fortunately for Congress, the President, and the Federal Reserve, the Ukraine-Russia conflict is replacing COVID as a ready-made excuse for their failures and a justification for expanding their power.

Even before politicians began declaring the end of the pandemic, polls showed that rising prices were the people’s top concern - particularly the...

Our Advice To Biden On Russia/Ukraine

Americans face unprecedented economic fallout from the Biden Administration's continuing intervention in the Russia/Ukraine conflict. Gas prices are reaching record highs. Commodity priced, including wheat, are soaring. The US (and global) economy is teetering toward disaster. What should we do? Are we on the right path? Today we offer some admittedly unsolicited advice to a floundering Biden Administration.

Are Sanctions Acts of War?

Economic sanctions seek to impoverish and sicken the civilians of the sanctioned nation. They also place heavy economic costs on the civilians of nations imposing the sanctions. To add insult to injury, the track record of sanctions forcing political change is disgracefully bad as well.

Info Brigade! Big Tech Suiting Up For War On Russia!

Politico today reports on how a "reluctant" big tech has decided to abandon its pro-free speech approach and take the side of the US government as the Russian war in Ukraine begins its second week. Are they kidding us? Also today, Biden Administration demands ten billion dollars for Ukraine and 20 billion for COVID. Free money! What could go wrong? And Massie stands up to the Washington war machine.

Is Ukraine Actually A US/Russia Proxy War?

Despite assuring Americans last night that no troops would be sent to fight in Ukraine, President Biden assured the country that it would stand by its NATO allies. Many argue that this is a good argument against Ukraine's NATO membership in the first place - as then the US would be obligated to fight. What other moves might the US/EU make? No-fly zone? More weapons? Total oil embargo?
