Behind the Headlines with Paul Dragu

The future is bright, but do we have time to get there?

Thomas Massie lost his primary race to a phantom candidate with no ideas or convictions of his own. A man who drew small, half-asleep crowds of Fox News loyalists. A man whose promise to the voters was that he would go to Washington and do what Trump and the Republican Party tell him to do, not what the people tell him to do. Assuming the election results are legitimate, it is astounding that he won with this strategy. This seems like a very unAmerican approach. He basically told his constituents that he would go to D.C. to serve King Trump and his nobles in Congress. More astounding is the group of people who were bamboozled into wanting this. Massie lost because older Americans were told to believe that the representative most loyal to the same ideas and principles as the people who created this country is the bad guy for insisting that everyone else in the government abide by those ideas and principles. Older people were fooled into believing that Massie is a RINO, a Democrat. Why? Because he wouldn’t obey Trump. Because he voted against outrageously expensive bills that devalue our money. Because he was brave enough to say that the president doesn’t have constitutional permission to launch a war at his whim. What they weren’t told is that Trump is the one who betrayed the Republican Party. He’s the one who failed to deliver on his promises. He’s the RINO. What they weren’t told is that the tenets of the Republican platform include the very ideals Massie defended and was fired for doing so. The good news is that the younger generation appears to get it. Young people appear more excited about limited government and nonintervention that the generation before them. Massie rallies were packed with young people who want to end the Fed, end the wars, and end rule by pedophile and pedophile protectors. During his concession speech, Massie said he was excited for the future because young people get it. The future is bright, he said. That may be so—but is there enough time to get there. A number of catastrophic threats loom on the horizon. Watch the video for more … Read my magazine article Trumpism vs. Americanism: Will Massie Prevail in 2026?

Why are Boomers so easily deceived?

I’m an individualist. That means I believe everyone should be judged individually, not on the basis of their skin color, their heritage, their religion, their political tribe, their education level, their income—or even their age. It’s the American way. But at the same time, there have always existed prevailing traits among groups of people who share certain commonalities. This is an undeniable reality. And when it comes to the Baby Boomer generation, there is a strong trend among this group of people to believe propaganda, lies, and other forms of deception. There are a few reasons I think this is the case. First, this is a generation that grew up in a time when things were generally good and life was expected to get better with each succeeding generation. Life gave them little reason to question the system. It’s a generation that owns most of the homes and equity. It’s a generation that has, for most of their life, experienced the American dream. It’s a generation that experienced more freedom than the ones after it. Secondly … Watch the video for the rest ;- ) Read my magazine article Trumpism vs. Americanism: Will Massie Prevail in 2026?

Get some chickens and grow some food. Your freedom depends on it.

Think about your daily needs. Food inevitably pops into your head. The food in your typical big box grocery store has traveled long distances to get there. Our fruits and vegetables come from 10 US states and Mexico. Half the red meat on our shelves is exported by four states and all of it is processed by four big companies, two of which have foreign ties. A handful of southern states produce nearly all the commercial chicken and turkey meat. And another small handful of states produce most of our grain. What happens if there is such a great disruption, for whatever reason—a super scary virus, nuclear war, a once-in-a-lifetime natural disaster, a (false flag) alien invasion—that it stops the flow of food into our grocery stores? During Covid, beef and pork processing capacity dropped by nearly 50 percent in April and May 2020, triggering meat shortages and price spikes. What happens if there is a greater, more prolonged supply chain pause? What happens when grocery stores in huge metropolises like New York City, Atlanta, Los Angeles, or Nashville go empty? Millions of people who depend on grocery stores are jammed in these cities like sardines. Mayhem will erupt, chaos of the most desperate kind. The kind that leads to anarchy. The kind that drives parents to do anything to feed their children. That’s why it’s so important that everyone who is able to learn to grow and raise some of their own food.

The two-party trick is a con to keep the wars going, the debt rising & your liberty dwindling. But it gets worse ...

We are barely more than a year into the new Trump administration, and talk of getting the other party in to fix this mess is stirring. This happens every time. People vote the other party in to fix the mess of the last party, then the other party takes over, fixes nothing, and the people, forgetting what happened just a couple years ago, can’t wait to get the other guys back in. Rinse and repeat. This is the madness of the two-party con—a scam that’s at least more than half a century old. The illusion that the Republican and Democrat parties have legitimately different agendas and ideologies is designed with two major goals in mind. First, it’s a sophisticated method of fooling the people into thinking they’re freer than they are. Secondly, it’s designed to keep from disrupting the Insider’s core policies. The major parties are essentially controlled by the same forces: many of the same donors, the same unelected government officials, the same rogue intel elements, and the same banking dynasties. If you’re paying attention, you’ve noticed that there are at least three major trends that never change, no matter who’s in office. First, the wars keep drumming on. Secondly, the debt keeps piling up. And thirdly, the government keeps expanding at the expense of our individual liberties. The trick is for the parties to have just enough differences to sell the con. Sometimes, they’ll manufacture something totally ridiculous to create contrast. Think something wild, maybe a campaign where one side tries to convince everyone that men can get pregnant. This doesn’t mean that there aren’t some legitimate differences. Clearly , Trump’s border policies are far better than Biden’s. Our second amendment rights are safer when Republicans are in charge. But we’re still heading in the same direction no matter who’s at the wheel: national collapse and world government. Check out my video to hear the answer to this madness.

These people should not have this much power

Is the Justice Department actually interested in delivering justice against the people who created the most tyrannical period in American history? If I were a betting man, I’d hold on to most of my chips. Nevertheless, it’s encouraging to see that David Morens, a former advisor to the former head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), King Anthony Fauci, is charged with conspiring against the United States. According to the government, Morens engaged in all sorts of chicanery. He used his influential position to generate taxpayer funding for a company that was financing gain-of-function experiments in China. He was also at the center of the propaganda operation designed to crush all talk of the virus coming out of a lab. He submitted propaganda papers advocating the bat theory to prestigious medical journals, even though the NIAID’s parent agency was already looking at information suggesting the Wuhan Institute of Virology released the virus responsible for the Covid-19 “pandemic.” And on top of it all, he’s accused of taking kickbacks for all this skullduggery. The charges against Morens reminds us of why it’s so dangerous to allow the government to become big and powerful. Because it allows deeply amoral people to wield enormous power over our lives—power they shouldn’t have. All this comes down to one major takeaway: the federal government should be as small and weak as possible, especially in today’s political climate of profoundly corrupt and sociopathic individuals. America’s leadership class is rotten to its core. And one of the most effective ways to minimize its destructive influence is to give these people as little power as possible.
