New Poll: Americans Reject 'Critical Race Theory'

According to a new poll, most Americans do not want schools to teach their children that America is an inherently racist country. Also today, election lawsuit in New York City, US teachers' union to demand forced vaccination, and the first major mask study is not good news for maskers.

"Reset" Liberty Instead

By Chris Rossini

Sacrificing Liberty always starts so innocently, and then it ends so badly. Nothing good comes from giving up Liberty, which is why individuals in a free society should resolve never to do it.

But it's tough for a lot of people. They get bamboozled rather easily. Politicians, along with the big money people who sponsor them, are expert at couching each power grab in altruistic garb.

And, of course, there's always some kind of "emergency," either real, or completely made-up, ...

'Delta Variant' Scaremongering: Fauci's Last Stand?

The media has joined the "public health experts" in hyping the danger of the "Delta variant" of the coronavirus. Fauci warns that it is the most dangerous yet. Yet data from the UK strongly suggest that, like all viruses, it becomes weaker with each mutation. So who's telling the truth and who is pushing a narrative? Also today: Capitol Hill Police hold open door for 69 year "insurrectionist" on Jan 6th, but she is arrested yesterday for entering the building. And...what does New York City's bot...

Biden Claims Bombing Syria And Iraq Is A 'Defensive' Move. What?

Over the weekend President Biden ordered US airstrikes on Syrian and Iraqi territory. The Administration claims that bombing countries 6,000 miles away who could not pose a threat to the US if they wanted was a "defensive" move. One problem: US troops are illegally occupying Syria and the bombing was unequivocally condemned by the Iraqi government. So..."defense"...or aggression? Also today, new polls and studies on Covid and US trust in the media. Don't miss today's Liberty Report.

HMS Defender Versus The Russian Military: The Danger of Believing Your Own Propaganda

By Ron Paul

​Less than two weeks after NATO members reaffirmed allegiance to Article 5 – that an attack on one member was an attack on all members – the UK nearly put that pledge to the test. In a shockingly provocative move, the UK’s HMS Defender purposely sailed into Crimean territorial waters on its way to Georgia.

Press reports suggest that there was a dispute between the UK defense and foreign ministries over whether to violate Russia’s claimed territorial waters with a heavily armed warship....

Forcing Americans Not to Work, Paying Them Not To Work ... Jobs Plan?

First government recklessly "locks down" businesses, forcing thousands to close, and ruining countless economic lives. Then government passes out money that it does not have. In essence, government pays people not to work. With record job openings, employers are struggling to find people willing to work! And now government wants to spend another $1 Trillion (that it does not have) in order to create jobs! This is the upside-down world created by hyper-interventionist government and The Federal R...

U.S. Debt Ceiling -- A Glass Ceiling That's Made To Be Broken

Here we go again! Talk of the so-called "debt ceiling" is back. Of course, shrinking the size and scope of government is not on the table. It never is. The federal government is $28 trillion in the red as it is. Why stop now? Well, logic, mathematics, economic laws, and all of recorded history indicate that the wrong road is being taken.

Biden 'Confesses' - There Was No Insurrection!

​While not long ago President Biden claimed the unarmed crowd that entered the US Capitol building was the worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War, yesterday he told gun owners they'd need F-15s and nuclear weapons if they wanted to overthrow the government. So...what gives? Also today: CDC says Covid deaths now "preventable" and cases of post-vaccine heart inflammation skyrocket.

A Fed Lifer's Five Basis Point Farce

By David Stockman

We start with this gem from NY Fed president John Williams. He claims the Fed must keep injecting $120 billion per month of fraudulent credit into Wall Street because, apparently, this quarter’s likely 7% real GDP growth and 5% inflation are not sufficient to meet the Fed’s goals:

“… the data and conditions have not progressed enough for the Federal Open Market Committee to shift its monetary policy stance of strong support for the economic recovery.”…

You can’t say enough ...

Freedom Of Press? US Govt. Seizes Dozens Of Foreign News Websites

​Apparently the "rules-based order" that the Biden Administration touts does not apply to the United States, as the Justice Department announced yesterday it was seizing the websites of dozens of foreign news outlets, including the Iranian government-funded PressTV. Is taking down foreign news sites a good look for the US? This story and more news in today's Liberty Report...
