Ron Paul has been a fierce critic of Donald Trump’s illegal missile attack on Syria as well as Trump’s bellicose rhetoric on North Korea.
Dr. Paul however, maintains an independent stance, judging politicians on issue by issue basis. He has recently offered words of praise for Donald Trump after his positive meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.
President Trump is about to embark on his first foreign trip, choosing to visit Saudi Arabia, Israel, and the Vatican, before attending a NATO meeting in Brussels and the G-7 summit in Sicily.
The mainstream media is asking why Trump has not gone on a foreign trip sooner. Ron Paul wonders why should the President even go?
(RPI) President Trump is about to embark on his first foreign trip, where he will stop in Saudi Arabia, Israel, and the Vatican, before attending a NATO meeting in Brussels and the G-7 summit in Sicily. The media and pundits have loudly wondered why hasn’t he gone on a foreign trip sooner. I wonder why go at all?
(RPI) Congress ended the week by passing a continuing resolution keeping the government funded for one more week. This stopgap funding bill is designed to give Congress and the White House more time to negotiate a long-term spending bill. Passage of a long-term spending bill has been delayed over objections to Republican efforts to preserve Obamcare’s key features but give states a limited ability to opt out of some Obamacare mandates.

Having blasted the Trump administration for their hypocritical flip-flop from “loving WikiLeaks” to “arrest Assange,” Ron Paul made his feelings very clear on what this signals:
“If we allow this president to declare war on those who tell the truth, we have only ourselves to blame.”
Today he sits down with WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange for a live interview…
Julian Assange joined Ron Paul of the Liberty Report to discuss the latest push by the Trump White House to bring charges against Assange and Wikileaks for publishing US Government documents.
Last week Ron Paul made his voice heard in the latest war of words between the CIA and Assange, saying…
“if we allow this president to declare war on those who tell the truth, we have only ourselves to blame.”

US President Trump’s latest, and perhaps greatest pivot comes at the expense of press freedom, and Julian Assange’s freedom.

From “l love Wikileaks” as a US presidential candidate, to “I hate Wikileaks” as President…Trump is in danger of alienating more of his hardcore base, already disillusioned with the POTUS’ myriad of campaign promises turned presidential lies.
(RPI) “I love Wikileaks,” candidate Donald Trump said on October 10th on the campaign trail. He praised the organization for reporting on the darker side of the Hillary Clinton campaign. It was information likely leaked by a whistleblower from within the Clinton campaign to Wikileaks.
(RPI) Audit the Fed recently took a step closer to becoming law, when it was favorably reported by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. This means the House could vote on the bill at any time. The bill passed by voice vote without any objections, although Fed defenders did launch hysterical attacks on the bill during the debate as well as at a hearing on the bill the previous week.
