Ron Paul Liberty Report

Do we need permission from the government to hold gatherings?

A 65 year old Galveston woman found herself tackled, handcuffed, arrested, and with a broken foot after she refused to leave a local Bank of America branch without her money. The bank demanded she put on a mask, she refused, so they called in the police. Property rights? Also today, first anniversary of the Covid lockdowns. Success or tragic failure?

As Americans watch their bills relentlessly rise, they're repeatedly told by official sources that there is no inflation, or 'not enough' inflation. According to the Fed, prices aren't rising fast enough! They've yet to hit their "inflation target." So which is it? Are your own eyes lying to you? Or are the bureaucrats refusing to come clean?

From Syria to Iran to Afghanistan to Russia, President Biden's early promises to focus on diplomacy rather than the alleged brute force of the Trump Administration has not been followed up with action. In fact, US foreign policy is as militaristic as ever.

In a blistering recent Tweet, US Rep. Thomas Massie blasted the inclusion of one billion dollars in the "stimulus" bill to propagandize the American people in favor of various coronavirus vaccines. Do we really need the government taking our money to propagandize us into accepting government policy? Also today, Texas (mostly) re-opens (with some depressing exceptions) and a new peer-reviewed study sheds more light on the "stay home" policies previously used to fight the virus.

Stanford University Medical School professor Dr. Jay Bhattacharya is featured in Newsweek Magazine condemning the lockdowns across the United States to fight the virus, calling them the biggest mistake ever made by public health authorities. A new study released by none other than the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) ironically appears to bolster Dr. Bhattacharya's claim. Is the truth starting to seep out from the Berlin Wall of lies?

Unless the government changes course, America will experience a crisis greater than the Great Depression.

Congress is expected to vote on the final passage of the massive $1.9 trillion "Covid" bailout package that many Republicans are claiming is a bailout for blue states who cratered their economies with Covid lockdowns. Is there truth to this claim, or is there enough pork for all?

The U.S. Constitution, the "Supreme Law of The Land," was designed to chain down the U.S. federal government. Considering the U.S. federal government is the biggest government to ever exist on Earth, it's obvious that the Constitution has failed. Those in power found a loophole. What if "private" corporations, that are intimately tied to government, do the things that government itself is legally forbidden from doing? This loophole has brought us the circumstances that we deal with today.

The FBI and Homeland Security are issuing warnings that a second "siege" of the US Capitol may be staged today, citing "chatter" among extremist groups. Does all of this sound like the scare propaganda from the dark days of the "War on Terror"? Endless warnings of "chatter" to justify further restrictions on our liberty like the so-called PATRIOT Act? Are they blowing propaganda smoke or should we be afraid?

Yesterday's announcement by Texas Governor Greg Abbott that effective March 10th the statewide mask mandate and partial lockdown would be lifted was a huge blow to the lockdowners. There is a feeling of the fall of the Berlin Wall of virus tyranny. But many are left questioning: why the authoritarian over-reach in the first place? Will Abbott be punished politically?

The Biden Administration's promise to embrace diplomacy over Trump's perceived unilateralism took a blow last week with the US attack on Syria. That is not the only hot spot where diplomacy as we understand it seems to have been abandoned. Today we have a look at the three hot spots. And finally today...Dr. Seuss cancelled???

Last Thursday President Biden continued what has sadly become a Washington tradition: bombing Syria.

ISIS is back, we are told. Suddenly after a prolonged silence the ISIS threat is now being used to justify expanding the US presence in the Middle East. Last Thursday, however, President Biden ordered an airstrike on one of the Iraqi militias formed in 2014 to fight against ISIS. So...are we helping or hurting ISIS? Does anyone know?

We live in unprecedented times of governmental, bureaucratic and authoritarian overreach. It is no surprise that The Federal Reserve, with its extreme counterfeiting of money and credit has also extended itself way beyond what anyone could have imagined. The Fed has sown the wind, and will reap a whirlwind of inflation. Central planning always fails. This time will be no different.
