Patriot,

After what many view as a very disappointing election last November, it’s important we reflect on some very positive developments.

These aren’t small developments either, but major setbacks for the American Deep State – which translate to major opportunities for liberty in the coming year.

Even the well-publicized vote-athon for the Speaker of the House is a positive thing. More Americans than ever have gotten a taste of how Congress operates in the open rather than behind closed doors. They heard how 4,000-page bills with millions and billions and trillions of spending get rammed through in a day.

Now, you and I need to be prepared to remind our representatives we are watching them and their misdeeds will not go unnoticed.

If you haven’t already seen it, check out my most recent weekly column below.

Public opinion against the Deep State – which was once more commonly called the “military industrial complex” – is turning, in a good and big way.

Let’s be sure to capitalize on this throughout the year ahead.

If you can, please support Campaign for Liberty’s continued work to expose, confront, and fight the ongoing assaults on our liberty.

Thank you for your support,

Ron Paul


A Gloomy 2023? Here Are Some Bright Spots

The prospects for peace, justice, and the advancement of liberty in 2023 may at first seem further away than ever. Washington’s determination to overthrow the Russian government via a proxy war in Ukraine has brought the threat of nuclear war closer than ever in history. The mainstream media is even “normalizing” the idea that a nuclear attack on the U.S. is really no big deal. Yahoo News wrote yesterday [January 1] that a “public health expert” is “concerned” that Americans are not sufficiently prepared for nuclear bombs hitting major U.S. cities!

The Yahoo article even links to a FEMA-authored “nuclear detonation planning guide” to help us better get through a barrage of nuclear missiles. Are they insane? They act as if a nuclear attack on the United States is just another inconvenience to plan for, like an ice storm or a hurricane.

The FEMA guide’s advice on what to do during a nuclear attack is, “Get inside, stay inside, and stay tuned.” Stay tuned to what? Have they not seen the photos from Hiroshima or Nagasaki?

While we are foolishly edging toward war, with the media and Beltway neocons cheering it on, there are still some bright spots we can look to in 2023.

First, polls consistently demonstrate increasing American opposition to U.S. involvement in Ukraine. Republicans are set to take control of the House this week right as Republican voter support for more military aid to Ukraine has seen a dramatic and steady decline. U.S. households continue to struggle under runaway inflation and a looming economic crack-up and more Americans are going to demand answers from their government as to why we have sent more than $100 billion to Ukraine while so many are struggling at home.

Second, a recent Rasmussen poll has revealed that in light of the “Twitter Files” – which showed that the FBI viewed the social media platform as a paid subsidiary of the U.S. government – some 63 percent of likely U.S. voters “believe Congress should investigate whether the FBI was involved in censoring information on social media sites.” A large percentage of those polled believe the FBI has been politicized by the current Administration, which may give incoming Republicans in the House some backbone to launch an actual investigation. Without the First Amendment, the other Amendments are virtually meaningless, and when the U.S. government can strong-arm “private” businesses to attack free speech, freedom has no future.

A third bright point is that the nearly twelve-year war on Syria might finally be closer to settlement. Syrian and Turkish defense ministers held negotiations brokered by Moscow which resulted in an agreement by Turkey to withdraw its military forces from Syrian soil. There are rumors that a meeting between the leaders of Turkey and Syria may come as soon as early this new year.

The destruction of Syria was part of the Obama/Hillary/neocon plan to “remake” the Middle East, but as always these interventionist schemes have only resulted in death and destruction. Washington continues to lecture Russia about occupying Ukrainian soil, yet the U.S. military has for years occupied Syrian territory for the sole purpose of backing extremists and stealing Syrian oil. Turkey leaving Syria will add pressure for the U.S. to leave Syria. That is a good thing.

The new year is upon us. It might be easy to feel dejected. But for we who promote peace, freedom, and justice, there is much to build on. Do not allow your voices to be silenced!
