Ron Paul Liberty Report

Is Pompeo working against Trump?

Facebook has "hired" the Atlantic Council - a NATO, US government, and foreign funded "think tank" to determine whether posts or members are authentic or whether they are "agents of a foreign power." How is it possible that US government's directly funded entities are collaborating with corporations to decide what speech is to be prohibited?

Violence in Chicago has been a problem for some time now. But it's now out-of-control with 74 people shot last week! The people committing the violence are responsible, but how has government helped to foster such an environment?

The US State Department has out of the blue decided that Russia is guilty in the case of the poisoning of a former spy and his daughter in the UK, and has slapped on yet another round of sanctions. This time the sanctions call for the president to completely break diplomatic relations with Russia.

A leaked memo from Sen. Mark Warner's office details a plan for the US government to massively interfere in the Internet. They want to "protect" us from "fake news" and from foreign influence. Will the US government acting more like the Chinese or Iranian governments really protect us from "bad guys"?

Sunday's suspension and banning of antiwar and libertarian Twitter users Peter Van Buren, Scott Horton, and Daniel McAdams is all over the media today, including on Drudge and Zero Hedge. In today's special report we will bring all three together to tell what really happened...and more importantly, what it means to the future of social media and free speech.

A blockbuster new investigative report on mainstream news outlet AP uncovers the disturbing fact that the US is in a de facto coalition in Yemen with al-Qaeda -- who we have been told for 17 plus years are our arch-enemy. What's going on here?

McCain and Graham are back on the warpath.

As promised, a new and sweeping round of US sanctions against Iran will kick in today. Though the EU has sworn to do its best to protect European companies from US sanctions, there is little doubt the Europeans can resist US demands. What's next?

Nothing is more expensive than something provided by government for "free." But there is more than a crippling monetary burden to their schemes. Endless waiting lists, rationing, black markets, and a whole host of new problems await Americans if they let government put the final nail in the healthcare coffin.

The liberation of southwest Syria from ISIS and al-Qaeda is complete. The "experts" were wrong. Many rebels surrendered or joined up with the Syrian army. After seven years of outside-funded "regime change" and unimaginable destruction, the country begins to recover. Will any lessons be learned in the West?

No sooner did President Trump announce that he would meet his Iranian counterpart "without conditions" than his Secretary of State began putting out conditions for such a meeting. The Iranians, unsurprisingly, backed off. Is Trump in control?

US and Taliban officials met in Qatar last week to gently move toward ceasefire and possibly peace talks. Meanwhile a US government report on US spending on Afghan reconstruction has found more than $15 billion wasted in just the past 11 years! Someone got rich, many more are poorer. And many are dead. For what?

President Trump’s recent Tweets expressing displeasure with the Federal Reserve’s (minor) interest rate increases led to accusations that President Trump is undermining the Federal Reserve’s independence. But, the critics ignore the fact that Federal Reserve “independence” is one of the great myths of American politics.

Numerous press reports over the weekend suggest that the Trump Administration may launch an attack on Iran within the next month. They are allegedly going to target Iranian nuclear facilities - but our own CIA - as well as the IAEA - has confirmed that Iran is not building nuclear weapons. What's behind the drive for war?
