A Small Continuing Resolution Victory Could Have Big Consequences

By Ron Paul

​Federal spending is so out of control that it only took three months for the federal debt to increase by one trillion dollars to over 33 trillion dollars. In contrast, it took almost 200 years for the federal debt to reach one trillion dollars. So the federal government racked up more debt in the last three months than it did from the ratification of the US Constitution until Ronald Reagan’s first term! There will be even more shocking increases in the future since, according to some...

Dems And RINOs Push HARD For More Ukraine Money!

Pro-war Democrats and Republicans in desperation pulled Ukraine money from the weekend bill to keep the government open. Backroom deals suggest Ukraine would be brought up as a straight vote on the Floor, where it might pass. But the road to more money is not as smooth as establishment politicians would like. Also today: UK defense secretary announces, then unannounces, that British troops would be sent to Ukraine. Finally: Slovakia votes "NO" on "Project Ukraine." Watch Here

The "More Americans Need To Hear This" Myth

By Chris Rossini

How many times have you heard something along the lines of "If only every American understood this" ... "Every American needs to read this article" ... "This is what they should be teaching in schools" ... "If Americans understood this, we'd be living in a free society."

Yeah, it's not that simple.

Human beings are tricky. We have the ability to believe what is false, even when presented with the truth. We can stick with the untrue; with the lies.

But how can this be?

Why would someo...

The Fed Has No Answers - More Chaos Coming

We can't say that nothing is manufactured in America. The U.S. government and the Federal Reserve are a tag-team that constantly manufacture problems for Americans. They both quickly turn around and claim they'll fix the problems that they created. But their "fixes" just end up creating new and even bigger problems! Ultimately, the problems become so numerous and so complex that the time finally comes to throw in the towel. The story of big government and central banking is always the same; mass...

While each side is jockeying for position in political points, the fact remains that one of the main factors precipitating the coming government shutdown is the insistence by both parties to continue sending money we do not have to a losing war in Ukraine.

OUTRAGE! In US Government Shutdown, DC Will Continue To Pay Thousands Of UKRAINIAN Salaries!

That's right: our "Representatives" in Congress and the White House are spending billions paying Ukrainian salaries and subsidizing Ukrainian businesses!

The Abortion Battle We Don’t Need

By Ron Paul

Former President Donald Trump infuriated many anti-abortion voters last week when he refused to commit to national abortion restrictions and seemed to blame them for Republican losses in the 2022 mid-term elections. Trump even criticized the six-week abortion ban signed by Florida Governor (and fellow Republican candidate) Ron DeSantis. So, not only is Trump balking at national restrictions but he is criticizing a state restriction. What are pro-life voters to do?

Politically, Trump ma...
