With all the buzz about Ron Paul advising Elon Musk and the D.O.G.E., people might want to know some backstory on why the good doctor receives such undying support.
This documentary we put together after the '08 campaign illustrates it well. #Enjoy

Attacking Massie, slapping false labels on him, and deliberately twisting the reasons behind his votes, which he's been explaining since 2012, is exactly why Republicans lost the midterms. If you still can't connect the dots, you've learned absolutely nothing, and the Republican Party is as good as dead.

When we return next week, we’ll get 218 signatures for Epstein Files Transparency Act II, which guarantees a vote.
Survivors will be able to get their own records, State Attorneys General can prosecute crimes, and we can take the DOJ to court for keeping critical files hidden.⚖️
Dealt with a door ding today. This seemed appropriate. Think @SouthPark will approve?

🚨 AMERICA LAST: Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita are largely responsible for the 2026 midterm wipeout.
Wiles steered Trump away from his immigration policy.
Trump’s aggressive mass deportation immigration policy was the only winning issue on the ballot in the midterms.
DeSantis had Wiles pushed out of the Trump 2020 campaign in 2019 after suspecting she leaked internal fundraising memos about his access-for-donors scheme (she denied it).
LaCivita went after Thomas Massie with glee, used his PAC to take him out, and replaced him with Ed Gallrein, who unregistered as a Republican when Trump won the nomination in 2016.
Taking out Massie destroyed the MAHA movement coalition that elected Trump in 2024.
Together they pulled the administration away from the America First agenda and toward the Fox News NeoCon establishment.
The base noticed.
The results are in.
Until these "advisors" are swept into the dustbin of GOP history, the losing will continue.
How could anyone not see this, other than the Boomers glued to Fox News?
Lots of hand wringing and gnashing of teeth, but little to no mention how the deviant deep state coverup affected the vote.
I wonder why?

I would honestly probably join the GOP if the Overton window were shifted to include everyone from Dave Smith, Thomas Massie, Tom Woods, Tucker Carlson, and Nick Fuentes.
In the 20th century, the National Review Republicans and their progeny purged everyone from Murray Rothbard, the Birchers, Ayn Rand, Ron Paul, Pat Buchanan, Joseph Sobran, Peter Brimelow, Sam Francis, and so many others, in favor of technocracy at home and imperialism abroad.
That forgotten history and the neocons' takeover explain how we get people like Ted Cruz or Nikki Haley and Tucker Carlson in the same party. But if the neocons and hawks could be purged, and that Buckleyite gatekeeping could be reversed, I would be on board.
The question, though, is whether the boomers, donors, Super PACs, and party committees can be overcome in the Republican primaries. I really don’t know, and I’m hoping to see data showing it can be done.
In the meantime, I am cautiously optimistic about a coalition third party that is being hinted at, because it might be the only option for America First and Gen Z to exert leverage.

To be fair, who would've thought that throwing your strongest supporters under the bus and then driving back and forth over them while yelling "hahaha who needs you" would lead to such a bad outcome for your party?
Cant disagree here. – at MacKenzie, MO
Spending $30 million to oust Thomas Massie for embarrassing the world’s elites, while wars raged, important races went under-funded and our nation fell to communists, has got to be the most irresponsible, and emotionally flippant abuse of money & power I’ve seen in my life.

Good question!
My American friends, a former United States Marine named Stephen Lara stood on the shoulder of a highway in Nevada while state troopers loaded his entire life savings into their patrol car.
Lara had honorably served his country in the Marine Corps. In February 2021, he was driving from Texas to California to visit his two daughters, carrying $86,900 in cash inside his backpack because he did not trust banks after losing his job during the pandemic lockdowns.
He kept every single paper ATM and bank withdrawal receipt inside the bag to prove the money was earned honestly.
Nevada Highway Patrol troopers pulled him over on Interstate 80 for allegedly following a truck too closely. When Lara answered their questions politely and told the truth about his savings, troopers searched his car, found zero drugs and zero weapons, and never charged him with a single crime.
They took every dollar of his $86,900 anyway.
Under a system called civil asset forfeiture and federal equitable sharing, state police handed Lara's cash to the federal Drug Enforcement Administration so the local agency could pocket up to eighty percent of the veteran's life savings for its own budget.
It took months of public lawsuits by the Institute for Justice before the government finally returned his money.
Americans, I want to ask you from the bottom of my heart: how can a Constitutional Republic allow government agencies to rob an innocent Marine veteran on the side of the road without ever charging him with a crime?

Ludwig von Mises built the intellectual case against central planning so thoroughly that his critics never actually refuted it. They ignored it, mocked it, then watched the Soviet Union collapse in 1991, confirming every word.
His 1920 paper on socialist calculation cut to the bone: without private property and genuine price signals, planners fly blind. Prices carry information no committee can replicate. Kill the market, kill the signal, and you get Soviet bread lines and Venezuelan grocery shelves stripped bare.
Mises lived this. He fled Vienna in 1940 with the Nazis closing in, arrived in New York nearly broke, and rebuilt his career at NYU largely without a paid faculty position. The establishment academia of his era dismissed him because he made their Keynesian comfort too expensive to keep.
Human Action, published in 1949, remains the most comprehensive defense of individual liberty and market order ever written. You live inside an economy shaped by bad ideas Mises systematically destroyed, but nobody told you.
Free Brian Cole Jr!
Another nail in the coffin for the case against Brian Cole Jr. TLDR: the alligator clips were crimped using a special tool and with a level of sophistication Brian Cole Jr does not possess. Also, these are not the style of alligator clips Brian Cole Jr. could have purchased locally. Finally, the clips the FBI alleges he did purchase were acquired after January 6, 2021. Free Brian Cole Jr.!

If they can track every dollar you make, you should be able to track every dollar they spend.
The ol' one-two.
@grok what were the three main things @realDonaldTrump campaigned on?
Did he deliver?
Be concise, no spin, be harsh.
