Al-Tanf, Idlib, Kurdish areas in the northeast. Three Syria powder kegs and the US is holding a handful of matches. The continued US occupation of a large chunk of Syrian territory is not providing stability. It is illegal and it is emboldening terrorist organizations. Now some senior military figures are saying we must stay in Syria to protect against “pro-regime” forces. Does this make any sense? We are back to “Assad must go”? Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:

Foreign Policy Arrogance Undermines Our National Security
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 11, 2018 | The Liberty Report
Pride goeth before the fall, we are told in the Bible. Unfortunately pride and arrogance are the lynchpins of our foreign policy. From the refusal to end the 17 year war on Afghanistan to the ever-growing military budgets to a new Joint Chiefs Chairman who promises to destroy our “enemies,” it is an excess pride and arrogance among the US foreign policy and political establishment more than anything else that is undermining our national security.

Global Cops: Will US Jail Chinese Tech Exec?
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 10, 2018 | The Liberty Report
Did President Trump really have no idea that a top Chinese businesswoman and member of the country’s political elite was going to be arrested in Canada just as the US president was having dinner with Chinese leader Xi Jinping? If so, did the neocons surrounding him knowingly keep him in the dark? The implications of this arrest are incalculable, as the Huawei CFO, Weng Wanzhou faces 30 years in US prison for allegedly violating US sanctions on Iran! What to expect?

Pompeo Promises New Liberal World Order – New Wine In Old Bottles?
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 5, 2018 | The Liberty Report
Secretary of State Pompeo told the German Marshall Fund (which is funded by the US government and the military-industrial complex) that the Trump Administration is seeking to creat a “new liberal world order” where US military might – “engagement” – would create peace and prosperity across the globe. Does this sound a bit – or a lot – like the nonsense the neocons have been spewing for decades since the end of the Cold War? And where has that gotten us? Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:
Why Are We Talking About Khashoggi Murder When US Drones Kill Thousands?
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 4, 2018 | The Liberty Report
Democrats and neocons in Washington screaming about Trump’s apparent lack of concern over the Saudi crown prince’s alleged murder of a journalist are themselves silent over the not one, but thousands of civilians killed by US drone strikes. It is not war or savagery that they are opposing. For them, it’s all about politics. More on the hypocrisy in today’s Liberty Report:
Trade War On Hold? Trump, Xi, And The G20 Summit
by Daniel McAdams | Dec 3, 2018 | The Liberty Report
With the G20 Summit in the bag, what are the top takeaways? A missed opportunity for Trump to pursue diplomacy with his Russian counterpart. Trump’s successful dinner visit with Chinese leader Xi. But will we be better off after the very expensive Argentina junket? Tune in to the Liberty Report:
Pompeo: US/Saudi Partnership ‘Vital’ – American Taxpayers May Disagree!
by Daniel McAdams | Nov 29, 2018 | The Liberty Report
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has published a bizarre op-ed in the Wall Street Journal claiming that Saudi Arabia has been a guarantor of stability in the Middle East and a bulwark against “expansionist” Iran. Perhaps he forgot about Saudi support for jihadists in Syria and the Saudi destruction of Yemen? Is carrying water for the murderous Saudi kingdom in the Middle East really the best way to demonstrate “American values,” as Pompeo claims? We break down Pompeo’s neocon screed in today’s Liberty Report:
Black Sea Face Off: Is Ukraine Provoking War With Russia?
by Daniel McAdams | Nov 27, 2018 | The Liberty Report
Why does it seem like each time Presidents Trump and Putin look like they might start communicating there is a “crisis” that threatens war? Are the neocons manipulating things? The latest dust-up between Ukrainian gunships and the Russian military in the Kerch Strait comes just as Trump and Putin are set to meet on the sidelines of the upcoming G-20 Summit meeting. Coincidence? Tune in to today’s Liberty Report:
Thanksgiving 2018: Reasons To be Thankful
by Daniel McAdams | Nov 22, 2018 | The Liberty Report
Thanksgiving is one of Ron Paul’s favorite holidays. In this special edition of the Liberty Report he traces the holiday back to its origins and explains why those early lessons are still so important today:
Trump’s Saudi Statement: Missing The Real Message
by Daniel McAdams | Nov 22, 2018 | The Liberty Report
Members of the #Resistance are trashing President Trump’s statement of unwavering friendship with Saudi Arabia despite his own CIA reportedly concluding that the Saudi prince was directly involved in the killing of a dissident journalist. But they are missing the point in demanding that the US “punish” Saudi Arabia. The solution is not to “punish” the Saudis. The solution is to cease providing the the weapons to kill Yemen and to re-assess the US relationship with Iran. In a special Ron Paul Liberty Report we discuss how all of Washington gets the Khoshoggi case totally wrong:
New Study: War On Terror Cost $5.9 Trillion (And Counting). Do You Feel Safe?
by Daniel McAdams | Nov 15, 2018 | The Liberty Report
Seventeen years of “war on terror” has cost the United States nearly six trillion dollars. How are we doing? Any victories? Nope. Not a one. In Afghanistan the Taliban re-claim new territory daily. Iran’s influence has increased due to our policies. Al-Qaeda was viewed by the Washington warmongers as an ally in the fight to overthrow Assad in Syria. Are we getting ripped off?

Chaos In Israel: Are Bibi’s Days Numbered?
by Daniel McAdams | Nov 14, 2018 | The Liberty Report
Just days into a ceasefire with Gaza, the Israelis sent commandos in to assassinate a Hamas leader. Hamas then surprised Israel with more than 400 rockets in retaliation, leading to another ceasefire agreed by Netanyahu. But this time his defense minister was having none of it. He wants a conflict and is threatening to bring down the government if he does not get one. What’s next? Tune in to the Liberty Report:
