Ron Paul Liberty Report

Philip Patrick joins the Liberty Report to talk about the grim future of America's economy.

WIth an estimated half a million Ukrainian soldiers dead, there is one "bright spot" in the US proxy war with Russia: the US military -industrial complex has used the war as a live-fire testing ground for the latest weapons. As Politico reports, a batch of "Ground-Launched Small Diameter Bombs" will soon be tested in Ukraine. The US military has not even received these weapons. Also today: Russian investigators claim a US Patriot missile shot down a Russian cargo plane carrying Ukrainian prisoners of war. Finally: More Texas border woes for Biden.

Though the Biden Administration has said there will be no US troops on the ground in Israel's war on Gaza, The Intercept reports yesterday on a US Air Force memo informing personnel to be “on standby to forward deploy to support troops in the case of on ground US involvement in the Israel Hamas war.” Our war? Also today: Nuland says NEVER to getting out of Syria and the EU goes Warsaw Pact on Hungary.

Mainstream media is reporting that President Biden has made a decision on how to respond to the drone strike that claimed three US service members over the weekend. Will it be a direct strike on Iran? More bombs in Iraq? Syria? And will he bother to get authorization from Congress? Also today, John Bolton's "dire" warnings about Trump 2.0.

Weekly Update --- Heading For The 'Texit'? by Ron Paul Liberty Report

Yesterday's attack on US troops in Syria/Jordan gave Sen. Lindsey Graham the opportunity to repeat his favorite chorus "Attack Iran!" While Republican hawks profess admiration for President Ronald Reagan, they suspiciously ignore one of his most important foreign policy decisions: to pull US troops from Lebanon where they were sitting ducks for attack. Also today: Texit for Texas?

Americans are certainly feeling the pain of rapacious government spending, enabled by Federal Reserve counterfeiting. It's one thing when purchasing luxury items is out of reach. It's understandable. That's why they're called "luxury" items. But when buying food is out of reach? Now you can no longer ignore the source of the problem. Counterfeiting always leads to economic ruin, without exception. The Federal Reserve is certainly not the exception. Senator Rand Paul is right. It's time to audit the Fed.

Former US Congressman, OMB Director, and successful businessman David Stockman (who is also on the Board of the Ron Paul Institute) joins today's Liberty Report to discuss his new book on Trump's economic views. Is Trump really at war with capitalism? Tune in to the program!

Part of the "magic" of the two Ron Paul Republican presidential campaigns was the broad appeal of his message to the younger generation. Kentucky attorney and state senate candidate TJ Roberts is part of the next wave of young liberty activists seeking to correct the rudderless ship of state. What are the issues that animate the next generation of liberty activists?

Weekly Update --- Don't Tax The Rich. End The Fed! by Ron Paul Liberty Report

Despite Israel's political leadership claiming that only the complete destruction of Hamas in Gaza is acceptable, its military leadership is increasingly vocal about the difficulty - or impossibility - of that task. As the US continues to get drawn deeper into the expanding regional war, what are the goals and what is the endgame. Former CIA counterterrorism officer Philip Giraldi joins today's program.

President Biden has admitted that US airstrikes on Yemen have not "deterred" the Houthis from blocking ships from Israeli ports. In response, the Washington Post is reporting that Biden plans to escalate...but has no plan or authorization. This won't end well.

Just the term "Bidenomics" should make Americans cringe. It implies that government is outside and above actual and immutable economic laws. Whenever you see "omics" appended to a politician's name, beware. You're being fed yet another fictitious "narrative." You don't need the government or the media to "explain" your economic situation to you. Their "explanation" will rarely, if ever, match reality.

House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-OH) is demanding answers after discovering that the Biden Administration has instructed government officials to flag financial transactions for financial institutions for people using politically sensitive words such as "MAGA" and Trump." Also today: The kids aren't buying the climate change religion...and a British lefty group wants to punish them for it. Finally...another round of attacks on Yemen fails. What next?

Weekly Update --- Congress Asleep As Biden Makes War On Yemen by Ron Paul Liberty Report

Connor Boyack is the founder of the Libertas Institute and the author of the highly influential "Tuttle Twins" series of books geared toward teaching young people about freedom and liberty.

Former President Donald Trump won the first in the nation primary by an historic margin, leaving Nikki “Nipping At Don’s Heels” Haley far in the dust. What does this say about the American voter considering the numerous indictments and other lawfare tools being used against him? Also today: Iran retaliates as DC sends more troops to the region.

As could have been predicted, several rounds of US and allied airstrikes on Yemen have failed to "de-escalate" tensions with the Houthis, who have declared that they would halt shipping to and from Israeli ports in response to Tel Aviv's destruction of Gaza. In a bind, what will Biden do? Also today...Netanyahu tells the truth. Finally: US watched as American journalist died in Ukrainian dungeon.

The U.S. has decided to bomb yet another Middle Eastern nation, this time the Houthis in Yemen. Once again, this has nothing to do with the security of the United States, and once again Congress has not declared war - which makes this action blatantly unconstitutional. It's evident that we (and our representatives!) have been relegated to being mere spectators as a small handful of people in government place our lives and property into significant danger.

Iran has seized the exact cargo ship seized by the United States last year, raising the stakes in the Middle Eastern tinderbox. The US seized the ship and confiscated the million barrels of Iranian oil as a punishment for violation of US sanctions. Now the Iranians are likely to "get their oil back" from the exact same (renamed) ship, this time carrying Iraqi oil. Also today: US moves closer to seizing Russian assets and Speaker Johnson pledges the US to defend Taiwan.
