Great Big Ugly Surveillance State

By Ron Paul

​On March 20, President Trump signed an executive order “Eliminating Information Silos.” The order directed heads of federal agencies to make sure officials designated by the president “have full and prompt access to all unclassified agency records, data, software systems, and information technology systems.” The executive order did not attract much attention until it was more recently revealed that the administration was working with tech company Palantir to create a database contain...

Americans In A Vice: The Left Puts Illegals First ... The Right Puts Israel First

The American citizen is caught in a vice. On one side there are protests (and many planned protests) against the deportation of illegal immigrants. On the other side there is increased government deficits and debt with a "Big Beautiful Bill," along with a possible war with Iran! The American citizen takes the brunt of it all. "Making America Great Again" appears to be a distant memory. Watch Here

Can Trump and Musk Make Up?

By Ron Paul

​Last week’s dramatic blowout between President Trump and his one-time top collaborator Elon Musk was shocking yet predictable. According to media reports, a cold war had been brewing between Musk’s people and Trump’s appointees and it was bound to break out into the open. It was only a matter of time.

On the campaign trail, Musk provided much energy and helped ramp up enthusiasm for Donald Trump. His support for Trump made him a lightning rod for Trump-haters and he saw his personal w...

Massie & Musk Are Right -- We Need A SLIM Beautiful Bill

Decade after decade, the Republicans disappoint. They can control all levers of government and they still disappoint. The election last November was supposed to put an end to that. Republicans (with massive public support at their backs) were finally going to lessen the major burdens that Americans are forced to shoulder (spending, deficits, and debt).

Elon-quake! Musk Shocks Washington With Anti-BBB X Post!

Yesterday on X, he put out a post heard around the world, declaring himself completely opposed to the "big beautiful bill" that will add trillions in national debt and will not cut spending until years down the road. Additionally, Musk threw a lifeline to those few in Washington who have spoken out against the massive spending bill. Speaker Johnson tries to put on a brave face, but can he recover from this humiliating smackdown?
