, Have you seen the news? The FBI is spying on Campaign for Liberty! Now, I’m wondering if my own personal phone lines are tapped and emails being read by Peter Strzok-like agents who want to see our Liberty Movement DESTROYED. That’s why I’m counting on your EMERGENCY action today, . With a showdown looming over PERMANENT reauthorization of the NSA’s domestic spying powers in March, I don’t think it’s any accident we’re being targeted by the Deep State. They know Campaign for Liberty and the patriots like you who support us are their biggest remaining obstacle to their dream of turning America into a full-blown surveillance state. They tell us it’s to “keep us safe,” and their power would never, ever be abused. The Deep State coup they’ve led against President Trump has exposed to many Americans what a blatant LIE this is. As I’ve pointed out time and again, if they’ll go after a sitting president, what’s to stop them from coming after you or me? The answer is nothing. That’s why I’m counting on you to please sign your EXPOSE THE DEEP STATE petition to Congress, DEMANDING they investigate FBI spying on Campaign for Liberty and any other domestic organization they’re targeting. You see, not long ago, Cato Institute Scholar Patrick Eddington submitted hundreds of Freedom of Information Requests (FOIA) to the FBI asking whether the bureau had ever conducted warrantless surveillance of organizations like Campaign for Liberty. When the responses started pouring back in, the FBI effectively responded, “No, nope, nope, never, not them, nope. . .” That is UNTIL they were asked about Campaign for Liberty. Then the FBI issued a “Glomar” response, effectively saying, “No comment.” , these “Glomar” responses are extremely rare, used only when the FBI wants to refuse to confirm or deny whether it was collecting national security or intelligence records on the subjects of the FOIA request. In other words, if they WEREN’T spying on me, they’d say so! Perhaps I shouldn’t be surprised. . . To the Deep State, I’m “dangerous” because I support liberty. That’s been the message time and again, going all the way back to 2009 when the Department of Homeland Security issued warnings about people with my presidential campaign stickers on their cars! Then, a few years later, we were targeted by the IRS seeking personal records and information on some of our largest donors (an attack we fought and ultimately WON with your help). Deep State mouthpieces in the media have accused me of being a Russian stooge for simply standing up for the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Now this. , with a battle looming over PERMANENT reauthorization over Section 215 of the so-called “USA Freedom Act” in just weeks, I don’t think this is any accident. This is the (UNCONSTITUTIONAL!) section of federal law pointed to by the Deep State authorizing them to spy on Americans’ phone calls, emails, Internet searches, chats, social media posts, and all the rest. . . It’s the crown jewel of the domestic surveillance state. And Campaign for Liberty is daring to threaten its survival! So Deep State allies in the FBI want to intimidate me into shutting up -- something I will NEVER EVER do, so long as I have you standing beside me. The only good news is this entire scheme can backfire -- IF I can count on your help today. Deep State apologists in BOTH parties, from U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) to Lindsey Graham (R-SC), are growing squeamish about reauthorization. They know there’s abuse. And they know -- despite the Deep State’s promises -- domestic government spying has never done anything to catch a terrorist. For you and me, that’s no surprise. That’s never what these schemes have been about. From the beginning, they’ve ALWAYS been about shutting up voices like mine who support American freedom. The good news is, if you and I can FORCE Congress to investigate the FBI’s surveillance of Campaign for Liberty, it will expose the Deep State’s true colors for all of America to see -- right as the battle over reauthorization of Section 215 of the so-called “USA Freedom Act” comes to a head. That’s why I’m counting on your EMERGENCY action today. So please sign your EXPOSE THE DEEP STATE petition right away. But I hope you won’t stop there. If possible, please agree to your most generous contribution to help Campaign for Liberty: 1) Deploy
targeted online Internet ads calling on Congress to investigate the FBI spying on Campaign for Liberty and any other similar organization
they’re targeting. This may be THE most cost-effective way for you and me to turn up the heat! 2) Use mail and email to contact up to 12 million Americans from coast-to-coast to generate petitions just like the one I’ve linked for you to Congress; 3) Work the talk-radio lines to explain exactly why our effort to expose the Deep State’s true colors is absolutely critical to stop the reauthorization of their UNCONSTITUTIONAL spying powers; and 4) Launch an all-out email and phone mobilization campaign to explain to the American people exactly why the Deep State MUST be exposed. With the fight over the USA Freedom Act just weeks away, we’re running out of time to raise the resources we need to fight back. So after you’ve signed your Directive, won’t you please make your most generous contribution of $50?I know I’ve asked a lot of you lately. But considering everything that’s at stake, I’m asking each and every Campaign for Liberty supporter to dig deep. Of course, if that’s just too much please agree to $25 or at least $10. The FBI and their Deep State allies have run rough-shod over Americans’ civil liberties long enough. It’s time to take the power back -- and that begins by us demanding Congress investigate FBI spying on Campaign for Liberty and any other pro-freedom organization they’re targeting. Please take action by signing your EXPOSE THE DEEP STATE petition and making your most generous contribution of $50, $25, or at least $10 right away. For Liberty, Ron Paul Chairman |
