Patriot,
Tomorrow is the midterm election. If you haven't already done so,
be sure you research and identify who the liberty candidates are
before you vote.
It's critical those who imposed tyranny upon America are held
accountable at the polls.
In my newest column below, I propose three things an incoming
Republican Congress could do to earn the trust of the voters.
If you agree, consider chipping in to support Campaign for
Liberty's work to make them happen.

Hey Incoming Congress: Try These Three Simple Tricks for a
Successful Start
Tomorrow is election day and polls suggest that Americans are
going to overturn Democratic Party control of the House and
Senate. Politicians and the media always say that this is the
most important election ever, but all too often once the voting
is over and the smoke has cleared, not much changes. The
Washington uni-party takes over and makes sure the status quo is
maintained.
It doesn't have to be this way. An incoming Republican House and
Senate, for example, could take early steps to reassure their
supporters that their votes weren't wasted on Tweedledee vs.
Tweedledum in Washington. Here are three suggestions to get
things off to a good start.
First, Republican Party Leadership must vow to end the massive
money spigot opened by the last Congress for Ukraine. By some
estimates some 60 billion dollars have been authorized for
Ukraine to fight a proxy war between the US/NATO and Russia.
This would be a move strongly supported by the Republican base. A
recent Wall Street Journal poll showed that only 37 percent of
Republicans support sending more US aid to Ukraine. Republican
firebrand Representative Marjorie Taylor-Greene said recently
that under Republicans, not another penny will go to Ukraine.
While I am skeptical that her party leadership would support such
a move, it's clear Republican voters would.
Plus, ending this proxy war would carry with it the benefit of
reducing the dangerously high possibility of global nuclear war.
That's not a bad trade-off.
Second, Republicans can signal that they will de-fund the
Department of Homeland Security. At the time this monstrosity was
created, I said this on the House Floor:
"The list of dangerous and unconstitutional powers granted to the
new Homeland Security department is lengthy. Warrantless
searches, forced vaccinations of whole communities, federal
neighborhood snitch programs, federal information databases, and
a sinister new 'Information Awareness Office' at the Pentagon
that uses military intelligence to spy on domestic citizens are
just a few of the troubling aspects of the new legislation."
Unfortunately all of these things came to pass... and more. As we
recently learned, the DHS has been colluding with social media
companies to try and prevent Americans from being able to say or
post opinions the government doesn't want others to hear.
They promised that a Department of Homeland Security would keep
us safer, but there is nothing that makes us less safe than the
destruction of our Constitution.
Finally, the third task an incoming Republican House and Senate
can take is maybe the easiest one: pass the Audit the Fed bill.
Ten years ago, the U.S. House voted in a bipartisan manner to
pass my Audit the Fed legislation only to see it stall in the
Senate. With Republican control of both houses of Congress there
is no reason a broadly-supported bill to open the books at the
Federal Reserve cannot find its way to President Biden's desk. We
all support transparency, right?
Inflation is out of control and causing real harm to the American
middle class. The Biden Administration seems determined to lead
us to a potentially life-ending war with Russia. The Department
of Homeland Security has turned into a weapon mobilized against
the American people and our Constitution.
A Republican-controlled House and Senate can actually do
something to fix these problems and thus make us more safe and
more free. Will they?
