New Squatters Coming: Invaders Quartered In Our Houses!

What kind of country allows itself to be invaded? A vast majority of what the federal government does, it should not be doing. It’s almost all unconstitutional. But they ignore the constitution and do it anyway. The federal government does have a job that it actually does have to do - protect the border - and it fails miserably at it. Our entire nation suffers as a result. Invaders are now squatters in our houses? That’s the severity of the failure that we’re now experiencing. Watch Here

Asking The Wrong Questions On Afghanistan Withdrawal

The Republican-led House Foreign Affairs Committee yesterday held another hearing yesterday on the disastrous US withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021. Of all the finger-pointing and blame-sharing, one thing is never asked: why was the US in Afghanistan in the first place? Why is it so easy to get into wars but nearly impossible to get out?

Lindsey Graham In Ukraine: 'More Of You Need To Die'

Running On Empty: 70% Of F-35s 'Not Combat Capable'?

A disturbing report from the Government Accountability Office shows that 70 percent - and maybe more - of the outrageously expensive, over-budget F-35 fighter jets are not capable of conducting combat. Yet Washington continues to rattle sabers at Russia and China. Also today: Pentagon not bothering to track weapons sent to Ukraine, and US considering MORE military aid to Israel as "incentive" for lower civilian casualties... Watch Here

Blame the Fed for ‘Shrinkflation’

By Ron Paul

President Biden may have recently made history as the first president to discuss snack chips in the State of the Union message. He used snack chips to illustrate the phenomenon of shrinkflation. Shrinkflation occurs when businesses reduce the amount of goods sold in order to avoid raising prices. President Biden pointed out that businesses hope that, since both the price and the size of the package remain the same, most consumers will not notice they are getting fewer chips, cookies, ...

You Can’t Protect Freedom By Abolishing Freedom

The government cannot protect our freedom by taking away our freedom. It cannot shield us from harm (real or imagined) by censoring the truth and ripping away our privacy. It cannot “battle” communists by acting just like the communists. It cannot protect us from corporate fraud by mandating the use of their fraudulent products.

The government is supposed to follow the law, which is the U.S. Constitution, not ignore it and give it lip service only when it's politically convenient. The Bill of Rig...

US House Goes Full 'Gangster' With Tik Tok Ban

Yesterday's House vote to either force the sale of Tik Tok or ban it entirely from the US is the most dangerous and anti-American act since the passage of the PATRIOT Act. The law will give the US president SOLE AUTHORITY to determine which businesses can and cannot operate in the United States. It is a full government takeover of our basic liberties. Watch Here

Diary of a Psychosis - With Special Guest Tom Woods!

Four years ago this week the manipulators in "public health," government, academia, and the media launched a totalitarian idea that had never been seen before in the "free world" - they called it "15 days to slow the spread," but we know it as virus tyranny.
