From Kiev, Lindsey Graham Blows Up Trump's Ukraine Policy

Just hours before a massive Ukrainian operation targeting Russian strategic bombers deep inside Russia, Senator Lindsey Graham and his colleague Sen. Richard Blumenthal were in Kiev again urging Ukraine to keep fighting. As President Trump has repeatedly stated that his policy is to end that war, why is a US Senator undermining official US foreign policy...and how involved was he (and other neocons in the Administration) in the Sunday attacks?

A Golden Share Will Not Make America Great Again

By Ron Paul

Japanese company Nippon Steel’s plan to purchase US Steel was bound to provoke a strong reaction from left- and right-wing economic nationalists. After all, US Steel was once the world’s largest company, and it was the first company to be valued at over a billion dollars. US Steel was thus a symbol of America’s economic dominance. So it was not surprising that Nippon Steel’s purchase of US Steel was blocked by both the Biden and Trump administrations. This was disappointing — especial...

Neocon GOP Strikes Again! DOGE Is Out ... Deficits & Debts Are Still In

The first few weeks of the second Trump Administration were exciting and hopeful. Elon Musk, along with the support of a large majority of Americans, was going to dive into the Swamp in order free the American citizens. It actually looked as though it were going to happen. The pentagon would be audited, Ft. Knox would be visited, the Fed would be audited, and TRILLIONS would be cut from the budget! But alas, even the richest man in the world (armed with public opinion) would be stopped cold. Non...

Trump Hits 'Crazy' Putin In Rage-Filled Post

Take the Deal, President Trump

By Ron Paul

Deal-making is said to be President Trump’s specialty, yet after five rounds of indirect talks with Iran – most recently just days ago – we seem as far away from an agreement as ever. The fifth round ended last Friday with no breakthrough, but at least no breakdown. However, each day that passes without a document signed on the table is another day for the neocons to maneuver the US president toward an attack on Iran.

One way the war party does this is to continuously move the goal pos...
