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

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

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

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!

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

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...

How The Ukraine War Could ‘End Tomorrow’ If The US Wanted: Jeffrey Sachs Addresses Ron Paul’s DC Conference

How The Ukraine War Could ‘End Tomorrow’ If The US Wanted: Jeffrey Sachs Addresses Ron Paul’s DC Conference

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

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

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...

Will ‘Peace’ In Ukraine Also Bring a New Détente?

Will ‘Peace’ In Ukraine Also Bring a New Détente?

Some observers in the lead-up to last week’s meeting between President Donald Trump and President Vladimir Putin in Anchorage Alaska hoped that a dialogue might be established where the broader issue of creating a new European security model that would reduce tensions and make it unlikely that a conflict like Russia-Ukraine would be repeated. Both Trump and Putin came away from the three-hour plus meeting with positive remarks though little of substance, at least in terms of what they were...

Another Reason to Ban Tik-Tok?

Another Reason to Ban Tik-Tok?

According to the July Consumer Price Index (CPI) report, prices rose by 2.7 percent over the past year, and by 3.1 percent when the “volatile” food and housing sectors are removed from the calculation. Markets rose following the release of the CPI since the increase in price inflation was not as high as expected. This led to an increase in expectations that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates next month. Of course, the CPI numbers are manipulated to understate the true rate, and...

The Right to Be Left Alone

The Right to Be Left Alone

What if the federal government captures in real time the contents of every telephone call, email and text message and all the fiber-optic data generated by every person and entity in the United States 24/7? What if this mass surveillance was never authorized by any federal law and tramples the Fourth Amendment? What if this mass surveillance has come about by the secret collusion of presidents and their spies in the National Security Agency and by the federal government forcing the major...

Ukraine Reportedly Working Frantically to Disrupt Putin and Trump Summit

Ukraine Reportedly Working Frantically to Disrupt Putin and Trump Summit

Let’s start with a very interesting post from Joe Tuzara’s Substack. I don’t know if this is true because I have not found any other media source reporting on it, and there are some problems with the details reported. Here is the claim: White Hats on Sunday killed a Ukrainian assassin in Wasilla, Alaska, five days before President Trump is scheduled to meet with Vladimir Putin at a currently undisclosed venue in The Last Frontier. At approximately 10:00 p.m., soldiers from the 10th...

Another Reason to Ban Tik-Tok?

Newsflash: Governments Lie

Bureau of Labor Statistics head Dr. Erika McEntarfer is one of the latest persons President Trump has told “you’re fired.” President Trump said this month that he fired Dr. McEntarfer because the president believed she manipulated jobs data. Manipulations, he stated, include the updated May and June BLS numbers showing the U.S. economy created 258,000 fewer jobs than originally reported, as well as the weaker than expected July jobs report. All of this, the president suggested, was designed to...

Israel Is Not an Ally—It’s a Liability

Israel Is Not an Ally—It’s a Liability

“My people are starting to hate Israel.” That’s what President Donald Trump reportedly told a prominent Jewish donor recently. His remark wasn’t just a political aside; it was a warning. As images of starvation and devastation from Gaza flood American screens, even Trump has privately acknowledged the reality of “real starvation.” A shift is underway, and it is reshaping the foundations of American politics and foreign policy. Once-unquestioning support for Israel on the...

Has Putin Learned the Lessons of the Battle of Debaltseve and Minsk II?

Has Putin Learned the Lessons of the Battle of Debaltseve and Minsk II?

I will answer my question right up front: Yes! The reaction of the West, especially that of Donald Trump, to Russia’s current offensive all along the line of contact, is reminiscent of the panic that seized the West in 2015 following Ukraine’s loss in the Battle of Debaltseve. That battle came about in part because of the failure of Minsk I, and was the impetus for Minsk II. So what does this have to do with the current situation in Ukraine? I believe that the primary...

How Ron Paul Changed the World

How Ron Paul Changed the World

I remember like yesterday when Dr. Paul called me into his Member office in 203 Cannon with a draft of his famous "What If" speech. He had written it in his own hand and he asked me to go over it and clean it up a bit. Not unusual for how he writes: from the heart. And afterward I spent a good deal of time in his office with a stopwatch making sure he could deliver it under the five minute rule. Shuffling the papers. What do we have to cut. Which paragraph could be spoken a bit faster. I knew...

While Trump Talks Peace, is the US Setting the Stage for More War?

While Trump Talks Peace, is the US Setting the Stage for More War?

Trump and a raft of pundits and US intelligence officials continue to operate on a set of false assumptions and delusional beliefs about Russia and the war in Ukraine. Sy Hersh is out with a new article, and the quotes from his source (or sources) in the Trump administration illustrate this. The article is titled, WILL TRUMP MEET PUTIN? As of now, the answer is, yes. The meeting is set for next Friday in Alaska. I want to focus on four paragraphs from Sy’s piece that...
