Burning the Flag or Torching the Constitution: Only One Destroys Freedom

Burning the Flag or Torching the Constitution: Only One Destroys Freedom

by | Aug 26, 2025 |

Cancel culture—political correctness amped up on steroids, the self-righteousness of a narcissistic age, and a mass-marketed pseudo-morality that is little more than fascism disguised as tolerance—has shifted us into an Age of Intolerance. Nothing illustrates this more clearly than President Trump’s latest executive order calling for criminal charges for anyone who burns the American flag—a symbolic act long upheld by the Supreme Court as protected political expression. This push is...

Trump as ‘Myth’ is Understood in Moscow. They Reciprocate

Trump as ‘Myth’ is Understood in Moscow. They Reciprocate

by | Aug 26, 2025 |

Trump’s ascent to a portion of the “Mythic” has become only too evident. As John Greer has observed: It’s becoming difficult even for the most dyed-in-the-wool rationalist to go on believing that Trump’s political career can be understood in the prosaic terms of ‘politics as usual’. Trump the man, of course, is in no way mythic. He’s an elderly, slightly infirm, American real estate oligarch, with lowbrow tastes and an unusually robust ego. “The ancient Greek word muthos originally meant...

President Trump Should Return to an ‘America First’ Foreign Policy

President Trump Should Return to an ‘America First’ Foreign Policy

by | Aug 25, 2025 |

After four years of unnecessarily confrontational foreign policy under President Biden, Americans elected Donald Trump in part for his promise to put America first at home and overseas. He promised a war-weary America that he would start no new wars and would get us out of the existing ones. Eight months into his second Administration it appears his promise remains to be fulfilled, as his approval rating continues to slip. On Ukraine, President Trump wisely observed coming into office that the...

Friedrich Merz Are You Nuts?

Friedrich Merz Are You Nuts?

by | Aug 25, 2025 |

Do you know what German Chancellor Merz did? Amidst serious negotiations to end the bloody and destructive Ukraine war, this guy's putting up a veritable roadblock right in front of progress. Here's what it is: Merz was in Washington along with several other European leaders for a Ukraine meeting with President Trump. When it came Merz's turn to talk he expressed, "I can't imagine that the next meeting would take place without a ceasefire." Clearly no one in the world with a heart would like...

In an age of lies, truth is extreme

In an age of lies, truth is extreme

by | Aug 25, 2025 |

The late columnist, Joe Sobran, diagnosed America’s political malaise with scalpel-like precision: If you want government to intervene domestically, you’re a liberal. If you want government to intervene overseas, you’re a conservative. If you want government to intervene everywhere, you’re a moderate. If you don’t want government to intervene anywhere, you’re an extremist. By this clinical standard, the forgotten American qualifies as a dangerous extremist—and it is high time people like this...

Why The US Government Stake in Intel is Fascism, not Communism

Why The US Government Stake in Intel is Fascism, not Communism

by | Aug 23, 2025 |

With the government buying stocks in private companies, such as the US government's newly-announced purchase of ten percent of technology giant Intel, it's important to know why this is fascist and not communist. There is a difference between the two. With communism, government owns all of the capital outright. There is no private ownership of business or industry. Communism always collapses very quickly because there are no market prices. With government being the only owner of capital, you...

Dutch Caretaker Govt Fragments as Dutch Right Splits on Israel

Dutch Caretaker Govt Fragments as Dutch Right Splits on Israel

by | Aug 23, 2025 |

Dutch parliament is fiercely divided on whether it should take more measures which add teeth to recent actions calling out Israel for the mounting civilian death toll and starvation conditions in the Gaza Strip. Just last month, the hardline Israeli ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich, who actively assist in Jewish settler expansion in the West Bank, were formally declared persona non grata in the Netherlands. On Friday, following a five-hour parliamentary debate which...

Is Trump, Like Biden, Politicizing Intelligence?

Is Trump, Like Biden, Politicizing Intelligence?

by | Aug 23, 2025 |

If you thought that Donald Trump had learned the importance of keeping politics out of intelligence in light of how the intelligence community was used as a tool to attack and subvert his Presidency, think again. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has fired a general whose agency’s initial intelligence assessment of U.S. damage to Iranian nuclear sites angered President Donald Trump, according to two people familiar with the decision and a White House official. Lt. Gen. Jeffrey...

The US Government Is Waging Psychological War on Its Citizens: Inside the Deep State’s PsyOps Machine

The US Government Is Waging Psychological War on Its Citizens: Inside the Deep State’s PsyOps Machine

by | Aug 23, 2025 |

“Have you ever wondered who’s pulling the strings? … Anything we touch is a weapon. We can deceive, persuade, change, influence, inspire. We come in many forms. We are everywhere.”— U.S. Army Psychological Operations recruitment video From viral memes to military-grade influence operations, the government is waging a full-spectrum psychological war—not against foreign enemies but against its own citizens. The goal? Compliance. Control. Conformity. The battlefield is no longer physical—it...

The Ron Paul Institute’s ‘Blueprint for Peace’ Conference

The Ron Paul Institute’s ‘Blueprint for Peace’ Conference

by | Aug 22, 2025 |

Not too far from where the principal military industrial complex power players work and live, hundreds of liberty-lovers congregated in the suburbs of Washington DC at the ninth annual Ron Paul Peace and Prosperity Institute (RPI) conference. RPI brings together voices of differing ideologies to achieve its core mission. In its own orderly, diplomatic manner, the event was a raging against the war machine and a reminder that there is opposition to the trillions spent on military budgets in...

Why Ron Paul Is the Only Politician World Leaders Should Emulate

Why Ron Paul Is the Only Politician World Leaders Should Emulate

by | Aug 21, 2025 |

In a geopolitical climate marked by escalating conflicts, overreaching state power, and moral ambiguity, few voices ring out with the clarity and consistency of Dr. Ron Paul. For generations, he has stood firm on foundational principles: non-interventionist foreign policy, steadfast constitutionalism, and a resolute adherence to Christian morality. It is precisely these qualities that make him the only modern-day political figure worthy of emulation, not only for American politicians, but also...

Javier Milei UNRAVELED: No Crying in the Casino!

Javier Milei UNRAVELED: No Crying in the Casino!

by | Aug 21, 2025 |

Last week Argentina’s Javier Milei regime tried to roll over bonds by offering investors an insane 69% interest rate, and only succeeded in rolling over 61% of them. Even a 69% annual interest rate isn’t enough to tempt investors to risk lending to the Milei ponzi, which means they either expect a default very soon, or they expect price inflation to exceed 69% over the next year. This was an ice-cold bucket of reality poured on the delusional talk of an economic miracle by the clown who...

Birthday Tribute to Ron Paul

Birthday Tribute to Ron Paul

by | Aug 20, 2025 |

Today is the 90th birthday of a great man—my friend, Ron Paul. During my 30 years in the U.S. House, I served with almost 1500 other members. To me, Ron Paul was the best. He was a man of great courage and conviction. He never wavered. Every speech he made, every vote he cast, was based on his core beliefs in freedom, liberty and peace. For many years, I had hanging on a wall in my Knoxville office a guote I learned from Bill Kauffman, the great columnist and author. It is from a 1930 novel...

Just the day after the historic Trump-Putin summit in Alaska to discuss finding peace in Ukraine, the famous economist and UN adviser Jeffrey Sachs made his first ever appearance before the Ron Paul Institute's (RPI) annual conference in Washington DC. Sachs' Saturday speech presented essentially a 'Blueprint for Peace' - which was precisely the title and theme for this year's event, attended by several hundreds of independent-minded people. Daniel McAdams, Executive Director of RPI,...

Sixty-Three Years, Nothing Has Changed

Sixty-Three Years, Nothing Has Changed

by | Aug 20, 2025 |

Exactly 63 years ago, on a summer afternoon in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the Kennedy White House adviser, Arthur Schlesinger, returned to Harvard where he had, until recently, been a professor of history. Schlesinger had come at the invitation of another Harvard professor, Dr. Henry Kissinger, who in those years directed the Harvard International Seminar, which brought together the "best and the brightest" from here and abroad to lecture, compare notes—and perhaps most importantly to...

Israel’s man inside the CIA betrayed the US, new files show

Israel’s man inside the CIA betrayed the US, new files show

by , | Aug 19, 2025 |

Veteran CIA counterintelligence chief James Angleton secretly oversaw a top-level spy ring involving Jewish émigrés and Israeli operatives without “any clearances” from Congress or Langley itself, according to recently declassified documents published as part of the Trump administration’s pledge to disclose all available information on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. The files provide a fresh and often disturbing look at a spy described by historian Jefferson Morley...
