Ron Paul Liberty Report

A trade war would likely push the global economy into a recession or worse

The Defense Department has sent Senate Majority Leader McConnell a letter informing him that even if Congress passes legislation limiting US military action in Yemen, the Pentagon will ignore it. Will Congress finally wake up on Afghanistan and Yemen and return to its Constitutional obligations? Time to smack down an out-of-control Executive Branch?

Peace is the foundation of Life, Liberty & Property. Yesterday, the news broke that President Trump will meet with North Korea’s Kim Jong-un. Never has a sitting American president met with a sitting leader of North Korea, making the event a historic one. Can we expect peace in our time? Will the warmongers surrounding the president, or even the president himself, derail it? Ron Paul talks about this important meeting on today’s Liberty Report.

We've recently learned that both Google and the computer repair company Geek Squad have been deeply involved with national security agencies to conduct illegal searches of their customers' computers and to help develop surveillance technology that may well be used against its customers. What are the dangers of "private" companies hooking up with the US national security establishment and even the "deep state"?

After a successful North/South Korea meeting, North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un surprised the world by suggesting that he might give up his nuclear program under certain conditions. Will the US play ball, or will the neocons once again block any chance of peace?

From Ukraine to Syria to Africa, the consistency in the Trump Administration's foreign policy is that it is consistently chaotic. One minute there is talk of peace, the next minute there are threats of war. Is there any benefit to such a seemingly incoherent approach to the world? What about the dangers?

The Iraqi Parliament voted to demand US troops depart their country. After 15 years, maybe it's time we listen to them.

Over the weekend, President Trump said that the US attack on Iraq was like "throwing a brick at a hornet's nest." He called it a massive mistake. He's right, but what's he going to do about it? We take a look at the Iraq war at 15 years...

Every special interest has a pitch on how to get government benefits at the expense of everyone else. This week we get the steel industry pitch. Americans are supposedly going to "Beat China" by paying a tax to the U.S. government. With enough propaganda, Americans will go along with it. But Ron Paul will tell the truth instead.

At a press conference yesterday, President Trump dismissed the idea of due process before police confiscate private firearms. He even suggested that police ignore restrictions on such gun grabs. Will government use the latest "crisis" to grab more of our liberties?

The Pentagon announced last week that it was sending $40 million to the State Department's "Global Engagement Center" to "counter foreign disinformation." Much of the money will go to creating US disinformation, to meddling in the internal affairs of other countries, and to more jobs at neocon NGOs pushing pro-war propaganda. It's a massive rip-off and worse -- we are the targets.

Ron Paul is traveling today. Please enjoy this speech that was delivered back in 2016 at a Mises Institute even held in Houston, TX.

What happened to the limited government movement?

President Trump has announced yet another round of North Korea sanctions, targeting Chinese and other companies still daring to trade with Pyongyang. Will he bring Kim Jong-Un to his knees? Or just keep hurting the suffering civilians?

The Fed has created a mountain of problems. Every solution (of theirs) leads to even more problems. Ron Paul talks about the what the Fed has done, how it tries to keep things going, and the inevitable economic crisis that is coming.
