Dear Patriot,

As we countdown the remaining weeks of 2019,
and look toward all the battles 2020 will bring, Washington, D.C.
is in utter chaos.

Battles (and perhaps even bipartisan "deals")
over gun control, expanded government spying, and socialized
medicine are all in the works.

The Federal Reserve is dumping hundreds of
BILLIONS of dollars into (SECRET!) banks to try and hold off a
financial crisis even WORSE than 2008.

To top it all off -- as we approach the 2020
presidential election year -- the Deep State has launched a
brazen coup attempt, working with their statist pals in Congress
and the media to IMPEACH the President by any means necessary!

Their goal is to send the message that ANY
president who ever dares to cross them will face the same fate.

That's why I'm counting on your IMMEDIATE
action today.

With so much at stake, I'm hoping I can count
on you to go above and beyond what you've done in the past as you
renew your support for Campaign for Liberty for 2020 -- a year I
believe will be absolutely critical for the Liberty Movement.

If we choose to do nothing, the America you
and I love could cease to exist.

Just consider the Democrat Party's open
embrace of Central American-style socialism.

After years upon years of indoctrination in
government schools, our national media is beside itself with
excitement that Americans are finally "ready" for full-scale
economic authoritarianism.

As a recent Newsweek headline stated:
"Popularity of Socialism Spiking in U.S. With 43 Percent Saying
It Would Be Good for Country."

And you can find headlines like that
virtually every time you open a newspaper, flip on a TV, or
scroll through a few of your favorite online news sites.

Believing President Trump is a walking dead
man politically, Democrats are falling all over themselves to
out-radical each other, including supporting:

*** Outright GUN CONFISCATION. As Texas
Democrat Beto O'Rourke stated, "Hell yes, we're going to take
your AR-15, your AK-47!"

*** Alexandria Ocasio Cortez's (D-NY)
so-called "Green New Deal" to BAN cars, air travel, FORCE every
building in America to be rebuilt, and hand people "unwilling to
work" fat taxpayer-funded welfare payouts! Estimates are this
scheme could cost up to $92 TRILLION -- approximately $420,000
per household;

*** Crackdowns on religious institutions and
non-profits who don't bow at the altar of government-defined
"morality;"

*** "Medicare for All" (AKA Euro-style
socialized medicine), which would send costs to taxpayers
skyrocketing, quality of care sinking, and force rationing --
enabling government bureaucrats to decide who gets care and who
doesn't;

*** The flat-out elimination of the First
Amendment by muzzling grassroots Americans and organizations like
Campaign for Liberty with a ball of bureaucratic red tape, and
then censoring ALL online speech that isn't "government-approved"
under the guise of combating "hate;"

*** Packing the U.S. Supreme Court with Big
Government apologists who think sayings like, "America is a free
country" means the government gets to do whatever it wants.

And now, they're using the threat of
IMPEACHMENT to force the President to the bargaining table.

On some issues (like spending, gun control,
and government spying), the President has been far too willing to
cut deals.

On others, we have less to complain about.

But despite endorsing their domestic
government spying programs, he's been enemy #1 of the Deep State
since shocking the political world in 2016 by defeating their
hand-picked candidate, Hillary Clinton.

First, there was the whole Russian charade.
Now, there's the business of this "whistleblower" who the New
York Times says is a CIA officer.

Think back to other real whistleblowers
(usually called "leakers" in the press), like Edward Snowden,
who've had their lives ruined and have been forced to flee the
country.

Yet this "whistleblower" remains anonymous
and protected?

Don't fool yourself for a second. This
impeachment scam is an inside job -- crafted, supported, and
carried out by the Deep State and their pals in the press.

It's meant to send a message to politicians
in BOTH parties that the Deep State is the REAL power in charge,
and anyone who dares to cross them will meet the same fate.

As Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer
(D-NY) stated:

"You take on the intelligence community --
they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you."

Who do you want calling the shots in this
country? Men and women we elect at the ballot box? Or
unelected, secretive Deep State rogues?

That's what this fight is about.

That's why I've shouted from the rooftops for
years that allowing domestic spying over law-abiding Americans
would only hasten our slide into authoritarianism.

Now, we see it happening. After all, if the
Deep State will go after a sitting President, is anyone safe?

What's to stop the Deep State from deciding
you're a bad actor because you go to the "wrong" church, read the
"wrong" books, or like guns "too much?"

In a word, NOTHING. Not if we allow this to
continue.

The good news is, we may have a chance -- our
best chance in years to strike a blow against the Surveillance
State.

The so-called "USA Freedom Act" was
temporarily extended until March 15 as Congress punted rather
than fight before the holidays, setting up a major showdown over
the Deep State's spying powers in the new year.

Under this phony "reform," which replaced
Section 215 of the so-called "PATRIOT Act," Congress supposedly
stopped the NSA collecting the private communications of every
American.

In its place, Congress instructed
communications companies to act as the NSA's filing cabinet --
and insisted these companies provide information to the NSA
whenever asked.

Now, it appears the NSA can't even abide by
these laughably minimal restrictions.

As one Bloomberg News report stated, the NSA
"deliberately ignored restrictions on their authority to spy on
Americans multiple times in the past decade."

Over the last several months, court documents
revealed the NSA illegally collected millions upon millions of
phone call and message records of innocent Americans.

All of this, combined with the ongoing Deep
State coup attempt against this President could play right into
our hands if we can build enough pressure to take advantage.

In addition to that, the battle over gun
control continues to rage. The good news is, your action has
helped stall any further action (so far).

But behind the scenes, the wheeling and
dealing continues.

Another shooting in a so-called "Gun Free
Zone" could break the logjam and send "Red Flag" Gun Confiscation
to the Senate floor.

Just like they told us government spying
power would NEVER be abused to target innocent Americans or
political opponents (like the Trump campaign), they're telling us
law-abiding Americans don't have anything to worry about with
these "Red Flag" schemes.

We're just not supposed to worry about how
something as flimsy as a false accusation could be enough for us
to lose our Second Amendment freedoms?

It wasn't that long ago that a Missouri
"Fusion Center" affiliated with the Department of Homeland
Security issued warnings that anyone with one of my presidential
campaign's bumper stickers was a potential domestic terrorist!

A jilted former lover who lies to a judge out
of spite -- or a coworker who doesn't like a political post you
made on social media -- could be all that's necessary to bring a
heavily-armed SWAT team bursting through your door.

You won't be warned ahead of time -- and
could very well mistake these "legal" intruders for common thugs
who are coming for your life.

In states with these "Red Flag" laws on the
books, reports of shootouts between law enforcement and gun
owners are becoming commonplace when they could be easily avoided
if we'd just follow our Constitution's Fifth Amendment right to
due process.

And when these gun seizures don't result in a
hail of gunfire, innocent law-abiding gun owners often find it
takes weeks or even months -- not to mention thousands of dollars
in fees -- to get their firearms back.

On top of all of that, signs are increasing
that SEVERE economic turbulence is ahead.

News reports show the Federal Reserve is
dumping HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS into banks, bailing out
certain financial markets.

Those banks on the receiving end remain
secret. That way those connected to the Fed get their hands on
all the money they want, and hardworking folks like you are never
told if your money is at risk -- until it's too late.

All of this means, we HAVE to keep the
pressure on for U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie's (R-KY) Audit the Fed
Bill to finally EXPOSE the Fed's corruption and cronyism.

The good news is, your action is proven to
work. In fact, Campaign for Liberty added 21 cosponsors over the
summer after a short-term burst of action from our grassroots
supporters.

That brings our total to 93. The closer we
get to a majority of the U.S. House, the harder it will be for
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) to stand in the way of a vote.

If we can get the bill out of the House and
to the Senate, the vote could go either way.

The last time it was voted on in the U.S.
Senate, we earned a Senate majority, falling just 7 votes shy of
overcoming a filibuster. And four senators who voted "NO!" on
Audit the Fed went down to defeat in 2018.

With pick-ups in the 2018 Senate elections,
we're inching ever closer to reaching the 60-vote threshold we
need.

And after watching their colleagues go down
in flames at the ballot box, other senators may soon "get the
message" and decide risking their careers to protect Fed secrecy
just isn't worth it.

With the 2020 election year expected to come
down to the wire, the pressure will be on like never before.

As you can see, Campaign for Liberty
certainly will have our hands full in 2020.

And I've barely even touched on the 2020
elections where there will certainly be opportunities to make new
strides for liberty.

That's why I'm counting on you to renew your
support for Campaign for Liberty for 2020 at once.

With so much at stake in the coming year, I'm
asking all Campaign for Liberty supporters to stretch and give as
generously as they can -- $100 if you can afford it.
[link removed]

I know that's a lot. Especially at this time
of year. But there's so much on the line as we head into 2020.

Of course, if it's just too much right now,
could you consider $50 or $35?

2020 is an "all-hands-on-deck" moment for the
Liberty Movement. Each and every one of us have a role to play.


I'm more frightened for our country's future
than I've ever been. I know the answer is for grassroots
patriots like you to take action and FORCE our politicians back
to the principles embodied in the U.S. Constitution.

It will take work. But it's work our
R3VOLUTION has proven we can do. So please don't move on to the
next email in your inbox or think, "I can just get to this
later."

With everything at stake in 2020, I'm
counting on your help. Please renew your support for Campaign
for Liberty at once!

For Liberty,

Ron Paul
Chairman

P.S. The Fed is dumping hundreds of billions
of dollars into the financial markets. Gun control and Deep
State-backed IMPEACHMENT are on the march in Congress. A
showdown over government spying is looming.

And all of these battles could come to a head
in 2020!

Patriot, this is an "all-hands-on-deck"
moment for the Liberty Movement.

So please agree to your most generous
contribution of $100, $50, or at least $35 to renew your support
for 2020 at once!
