A recent report commissioned by the American Psychological Association showed that several of its members surreptitiously assisted the Central Intelligence Agency in designing new forms of torture. Even the APA's person in charge of ethics was caught trying to re-write the ethics rules to allow for such horrific behavior. Today the Ron Paul Liberty Report takes a look at what happens when doctors serve the state instead of their patients... read on...
The NAACP is demanding that the giant carving at Stone Mountain, GA, of Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee, and Stonewall Jackson be sandblasted into oblivion. Off with the pagan carvings of slaveholders at Mr. Rushmore, too.
In this same spirit, there are calls to tear down the Jefferson Memorial and change the name of Washington, DC. OK with me. Paganesque memorials are strewn about that city, and the pagans were slaveholders. read on...
We're with the Iranians because we are both fighting ISIS but we're against the Iranians because they are on the side of Assad. That is why RPI Chairman Ron Paul described our foreign policy as "schizophrenic" in a Newsmax debate on the Iran deal.
On the Iran talks, Dr. Paul reminded the viewers that Reagan believed it was important to talk to the Soviets, a regime that had killed far more people than has the Iranians, and to look for ways to reduce weapons proliferation. So why not talk to Iran? read on...
With the extremist "Right Sector" militias beginning to foment unrest in western Ukraine, will US-backed president Poroshenko move against his most dedicated storm troopers or will they move against him? Ukraine is breaking apart and no amount of EU or US goodwill will keep it together.

With President Barack Obama announcing Monday the commutation of the sentences of 46 US government prisoners, Reuters calculates that the president “has now commuted the sentences of 89 prisoners, the vast majority of whom were nonviolent drug offenders who applied for clemency under an initiative the White House began in April 2014.” The freeing of any drug war victims is reason for celebrations. Yet, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons 95,265 people (48.7% of all federal prison inmates) are in US government prisons for drug convictions. How about freeing them all? read on...
Next January it becomes legal in Texas to openly carry firearms in public places. The burger chain Whataburger has decided that it will not allow open carry of firearms in its restaurants. Is it OK for Whataburger to discriminate against its customers? Of course, says Ron Paul in today's Liberty Report. We discriminate in literally every action we take. The real issue is one of property rights, not guns or wedding cakes. read on...
According to the newly released Military Strategy of the United States, 2015, the real threats are no longer the terrorism of non-state actors but rather Russia, China, Iran, and any other state that challenges US global hegemony.
