Global Taxes – Global Stagnation

By Ron Paul

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has proposed that governments around the world require payment of at least a uniform “global minimum corporate tax.” A motivation for Yellen's push for a global minimum corporate tax is fear that the Biden administration’s proposed increase in the US corporate tax will cause some American corporations to flee the US for countries with lower corporate taxes.

President Biden wants to increase corporate taxes to help pay for his so-called infrastructure pla...

Major Covid Myth Destroyed - Is Freedom Winning?

The CDC has quietly added a link on its website to a new study showing that surface transmission of the virus is extremely rare. Even if a person touches a "contaminated" surface the chance of getting infected is only one in ten thousand! So much for the billions of dollars shelled out over the past year on disinfectants and sanitizers. Somebody got rich! Also today; More Fauci word salad and United Airlines dangerous new "wokeism."

Avoiding The "God-Complex" Trap

By Chris Rossini

Many who understand the superiority of the ideas of liberty simply give up. They see that the downward pull of totalitarianism continues at a relentless pace and come to the conclusion of "What's the point?"

This is an error in judgment.

The first error is in exclusively focusing on the effect. That is, in the expectation that your words are going to immediately change the minds of those around you who clamor for more authoritarianism. 

It is human nature to want the achievement of ...

The "War on Cash" Is Really A War on Freedom

"Vaccine Passports"? ... "War on Cash,"? ... The common thread is that these authoritarian ideas are war on our freedom. Total surveillance has been sought by authoritarians for thousands of years; always with the goal of trying to control how people move, or how they spend their money. The spread of the ideas of Liberty are necessary in order to save us from encroaching tyranny.

'New Normal'? Davos Billionaire Crowd Pushes Orwellian 'Smart Mask'

Just as many US states are seeing Covid numbers plummet, Klaus "trans-humanist" Schwab's World Economic Forum is pushing a new "smart mask" that not only tells you when to take a breath of fresh air: it also warns you to put it on if you've forgotten it. All tracked through your mobile phone. It is one more step toward China's Orwellian "social credit" system (in fact, the mask itself was developed by a Chinese firm!). And the billionaire elites want to shove it down our throats.

Texas Covid Crashes - Fauci Dumbfounded

A month after Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced an end to all coronavirus restrictions, covid numbers continue to crash in the state. While Fauci was quick to attack Abbott's move to open Texas, when asked this week why the doom he predicted did not come about he had no answer. Also today: Baseball is back in Texas and vaccine passports are ruled out.

Liberty Is THE Cure

By Adam Garrie

The person who determines the terminology of the debate will ultimately win the debate. Consider a sports team with well-known strengths and weaknesses. If this team is able to set the rules of the game (to which their opponents must abide), there is little chance that they will ever lose. Therefore, competitive sports have mutually agreed upon sets of rules that are as close as possible to neutral, insofar as the rules do not automatically favour one style of play over another.

'Insurrection'...Or Inquisition? With Guest Julie Kelly

Investigative journalist Julie Kelly has gone where few mainstream journalists have dared to go: deep into the US government cases against the January 6th "insurrectionists." What she found is shocking. Is the government pursuing actual justice...or political 'justice'?

Why is the Biden Administration Pushing Ukraine to Attack Russia?

By Ron Paul

​On March 24th, Ukraine's President Vladimir Zelensky signed what was essentially a declaration of war on Russia. In the document, titled Presidential Decree No. 117/2021, the US-backed Ukrainian leader declared that it is the official policy of Ukraine to take back Crimea from Russia.

The declaration that Ukraine would take back Crimea from Russia also followed, and was perhaps instigated by, President Biden’s inflammatory and foolish statement that “Crimea is Ukraine.”

US Secretary of...

What Would Hunter Biden's Laptop Reveal About The Coming Ukraine War?

In a shock interview over the weekend, President Biden's son, Hunter, revealed that the laptop the media assured us was "Russian disinformation" could "absolutely" be his. He also revealed weeks-long benders on crack and vodka with no sleep...and that he doesn't remember taking his laptop to be repaired. Clearly the Biden Administration is goading Ukraine to provoke a war with Russia. How are these related?
