by Ron Paul | May 12, 2025 | Featured Articles

Fed Up with Benjamin Netanyahu?
by Philip Giraldi | May 9, 2025 | Featured Articles

Small Reforms to Improve the US Medical System
by Jeffrey A. Tucker | May 7, 2025 | Featured Articles

Why Doesn’t the ‘Deal-Maker’ Close the Deal?
by Alastair Crooke | May 6, 2025 | Featured Articles
The story, both on Ukraine and Iran, is that President Trump wants a “deal” – and both deals are available – yet he seems nonetheless to have boxed himself in. Trump presents his Administration as being something rougher, meaner, and far less sentimental. It aspires...
Will America Survive?
by Paul Craig Roberts | May 6, 2025 | Featured Articles

Agent Waltz?
by Daniel McAdams | May 3, 2025 | Featured Articles
The Washington Post is reporting today that recently-ousted National Security Advisor Mike Waltz may have been involved in activities even more nefarious than inviting journalists onto highly sensitive Signal group chats. It appears that what really angered President...
Will We See Mushroom Clouds Over Kashmir?
by Eric Margolis | May 3, 2025 | Featured Articles
One of the world’s, oldest and most dangerous conflicts went critical this past week as nuclear armed India and Pakistan traded threats of war. The Kashmir conflict is the oldest one before the UN. In my book `War at the Top of the World’ I warned that the...
So Much for Free Speech Under Trump
by Jacob G. Hornberger | May 3, 2025 | Featured Articles
After riding a wave of criticism of Democrats for suppressing freedom of speech, President Trump has just put the quietus on Amazon, which had the audacity to contemplate including the price of Trump’s tariffs in its shopping carts. Upon hearing of Amazon’s plan,...
I Wish I Could Stop Reading About The Slaughter In Gaza.
by Rep. John J. Duncan Jr. | May 2, 2025 | Featured Articles
(Photo: journalist Fatima Hassouna, murdered by Israel) As I sat in church last Sunday, before the service started, I thought maybe I read too much. I wish I had not read about Mohammed Hegazy, a seven-year-old Palestinian boy who was blinded by an Israeli grenade...

by Ian Proud | May 2, 2025 | Featured Articles

by Larry C. Johnson | May 1, 2025 | Featured Articles
I almost don’t know what to say about Pete Hegseth’s social media post (see above). It is juvenile, counterproductive and dangerous. During my time living in Central America, I learned a very important piece of wisdom… i.e., The fish dies by its mouth. We need a...
