What Is The 'Canary Mission' And Why Are US Officials Using It To Attack The First Amendment?

Testimony yesterday that the US Administration relied on the shadowy, Israel-linked Canary Mission to identify students for harassment and deportation raises serious questions about its stated commitment to the First Amendment. Is the "woke Right" just a mirror image of the "woke Left"? Or worse? Also today, Netanyahu hangs around for a THIRD day to tour the Pentagon. Watch Here

The Quiet Part Of The Epstein Deception

Trump Administration officials' desperation to bury the whole Epstein chapter - with Trump berating a reporter for even asking about it - obscures something very important (in addition to child abuse) that appears to have taken place. Also today: Can a Musk "third party" actually "win"? Depends on what "winning" means.

America...First? Flip-Flopping Trump Vows More Weapons To Ukraine

In a bizarre day in which we learned that there actually is no Epstein client list after being promised its release, Trump one-upped his hapless administration and announced that he was turning his back on one of the most important planks in his platform: Ukraine. With Netanyahu at his side, he announced that he would be sending weapons to Ukraine after all and that he is ending sanctions on al-Qaeda-ruled Syria at the request of the Israeli prime minister. Also today, the US to spend $1.5 billi...

Do We Need 'The America Party'?

Rumors continue to swirl around Elon Musk's threat/promise to found a new political party in the United States after the passage of the enormously destructive "Big Beautiful Bill." Do we need a viable third party? What should it look like?

What Trump Should Tell Netanyahu

By Ron Paul

​A few weeks ago I urged President Trump to make a deal with Iran that would satisfy his stated goal of no nuclear weapons production and would allow Iran to continue its lawful pursuit of civilian nuclear energy. The deal on the table, as described by the Iranian foreign minister himself, was a win-win “update” of Obama’s JCPOA “nuclear deal” that he could have avoided a costly and counter-productive war with Iran.

Unfortunately, the negotiations were cut short by an Israeli sneak-att...

Big Beautiful Charade - Republicans Cave; Democrats Rave

In one of the most easily predictable moves of all time, a small group of Republican "holdouts" quickly caved and green-lit the massive spending bill for passage; while Democrat Leader Jeffries has lurked at the House Floor microphone for hours pretending that there is any opposition to the Uniparty in DC. It is a shameful preview to the celebration of 249 years since we told King George, "later." Watch Here

Is The Ukraine Money Game Finally Over?

The Pentagon announced yesterday that the regular supply of weapons sent to Ukraine would be halted. The problem? We are running out of weapons! What does it say about a foreign policy that depletes the US defensive capabilities on behalf of foreign countries? Also today: The Libertarian Party reaches out to Elon Musk - can they work something out?

As Gaza Starves...US Green-Lights More US Weapons To Israel

Just as news comes out that IDF commanders ordered Israeli soldiers to shoot unarmed Palestinians lining up for food, the US announced that it has approved $500 million in new weapons to Israel - just the kinds of weapons that are being used on the Palestinians who line up for food. Also today, the BBB spat between Musk and Trump widens!

Big Beautiful Bankruptcy

As was easily predictable, all the carrots they hung on the "Big Beautiful Bill" to get House Republicans to vote on it have been stripped from the Senate version. The only thing remaining is the massive increase in debt. As usual, Thomas Massie was right. Will the final vote saddle Americans with this bankrupt albatross? Watch Here

A Big Beautiful Bill for the Military-Industrial Complex

By Ron Paul

​The US Senate worked through the weekend on the “Big Beautiful Bill.” The goal was to pass it quickly to ensure the House will then pass it and send it to President Trump’s desk before the July 4th holiday.

However, disagreements among Republican Senators over reductions in spending on programs including Medicaid and food stamps as well as language in the bill eliminating “clean energy” tax credits were preventing Senate Republican leadership from getting enough votes to pass the bill...
