Ron Paul Liberty Report

While President Trump remains preoccupied with foreign affairs, new polling shows an accelerating softening in support among Trump voters concerned with the high cost of living. The buzzword is "affordability" but what does that really mean?

Was he there? Was he somewhere else? The White House and Pentagon can't seem to get the story straight on the "double-tap" murder of survivors of a US extrajudicial killing off the coast of Venezuela in September. Suddenly Congress is waking up to the real problem of President Trump's "shoot first" policy on boats in the Caribbean. Also today...more US bombs on Somalia - who are we at war with?

President Trump's shoot to kill policy on boats off the coast of Venezuela has run into serious legal trouble after the media has reported that his Defense Secretary, Hegseth, ordered survivors of a first strike to all be killed as they clung to the wreckage of the boat. "Kill them all," he was reported to have said. But why are they killing anyone? Are we at war? Also today, NATO slips further into irrelevancy...

The government shutdown “proved an argument that conservatives have been making for 45 years: The U.S. Department of Education is mostly a pass-through for funds that are best managed by the states.” The most significant thing about this statement in a November 16 USA Today editorial is not its substance. As the editorial’s author points out, the argument presented is not new.

The most significant thing about the statement is that its author is Education Secretary Linda McMahon. Unlike many in DC, Secretary McMahon backs up her words with action. She is dismantling the Department of Education, fulfil...

he horrific attack over the weekend by a CIA-linked Afghan immigrant did not have to happen. The problem, however, was not a flawed immigration policy and the solution is not "reverse migration."

AI Bubble is a perfect example of why The Fed should not exist. Give human beings the ability to counterfeit money and their delusions of grandeur are going to follow. Economic laws become a relic of the past. The free will of every single person on earth is ignored as if it doesn't exist. The receivers of The Fed's counterfeit money believe that they will overcome it all, and reality will conform to their imaginations. End the Fed.

Judge Andrew Napolitano has a new article out explaining what happened to the Madisonian system that created such freedom and wealth for the United States. Where did we go wrong? Hint: Wilson. Also today, Texas Governor Abbott declares Muslim rights group to be a "foreign terrorist organization."

Multiple media outlets are reporting that a weeks-long, behind-the-scene effort between Trump envoy Steve Witkoff and Russian negotiator Kiril Dimitriov has resulted in a multiple-point deal to end the war in Ukraine. Is the corruption scandal breaking now as a way to push a fading Zelensky toward accepting reality? Also today: Marjorie Taykor-Greene emerges as a top Republican Trump critic - who defines what is and is not MAGA?

The UN Security Council (with Russia and China abstaining) adopted a resolution yesterday essentially establishing a "Board of Peace" to govern post-destroyed Gaza. It is unclear who will make up the military might to "enforce" the peace, but President Trump has announced that he will be the Chairman of the Board of Peace. Good idea? Also today: F-35s to Saudi Arabia.

Donald Trump’s victory in the 2024 presidential election was due in large part to his promises to pursue an America First foreign policy and rein in inflation. One year later, prices remain high, and President Trump is more focused on overseas meddling than on the American people. This has helped enable Democrats to win governor races in Virginia and New Jersey, and self-described Democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani to win the New York City mayor race by running on “affordability.”

Since the election, President Trump has made a number of proposals to ease the burden of high prices. One of...

Many Americans mistakenly believed that shutting the government down for the longest stretch ever might actually save us some money. The opposite is the case. No matter what Washington does, the debt bill keeps getting higher. Also today, tariffs cause chaos for US business.

All attempts at central planning (like the Federal Reserve) lead to economic ruin. The planners ultimately drive themselves into a corner, where every single move they make equals economic pain. Nothing that they do takes the pain away, but only increases it further. It has been 100+ years since the immoral and unconstitutional Fed was shackled onto the American citizen. They've destroyed the money, the economy, funded the endless wars, and crushed the American Dream. They will ultimately reach the point where they won't be able to keep this up any longer.

The news site Axios broke an "exclusive" story this morning that the Trump Administration is negotiating a US foreign aid agreement with Israel that will guarantee US funding for 20 years at an even higher level. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu quickly denied the report. What's going on here and how might such a deal affect Trump's wavering MAGA movement? Also today, big time trouble for FBI director Kash Patel. Can he survive the scandals?

Senator Rand Paul tried to warn Congress years ago that pumping a hundred billion into Ukraine with no oversight would not end well. Now we see a massive corruption scandal break out right on the doorstep of the Ukrainian president, Zelensky. Ending the Ukraine war could have easily been done by pulling the plug on the money train. Also today: US Housse declares war on America's hemp industry.

President Trump welcoming "former" al-Qaeda leader and self-proclaimed president of Syria to the White House has MAGA conservatives steaming. Will Trump's obsessive focus on the US overseas sink Republicans in the mid-terms?

I recall when then-President Barack Obama was planning to send troops to enforce his “Assad must go” policy in Syria, many Republican US Senators passionately argued that the US President must come to Congress for approval before sending US troops into combat overseas. At the time, they portrayed themselves as brave defenders of the US Constitution.

Last week, when the Senate held a vote to remind President Trump that he is required to seek approval from the Legislative Branch before launching an attack on Venezuela, only two Republican Senators stood up to defend the Constitution. Why? Perhaps beca...

President Trump has touted a solution to the housing affordability crisis: 50 year home mortgages, but is this just effectively a "you'll own nothing and be happy" strategy? Also today: Russia considering Venezuela's offer for assistance as the US continues its military show of force.

There's a stark disconnect between the Trump Administration's description of the economy and the economy that we all live in. There are some things that can't be faked. We pay our bills. We see our bank accounts, and credit card accounts. We don't need the president, or the media, to tell us that "inflation is dead." Inflation is not dead! Yesterday, it was reported that monthly layoffs from October were the highest total in 22 years! President Trump was elected to deliver a smaller government with less spending and debt, and an end to the wars. He has done the...

The anti-Trump Politico has officially labelled President Trump a "lame duck" president after across-the-board electoral defeats this week. Is the vote a harbinger of what it to come for Republicans next year, or can Trump's involvement keep a GOP majority in Congress?
