Has Trump Derailed a Deep State Plot to Attack Iran? I believe that the FBI’s announcement on November 8 — three days after Trump’s victory — of an alleged Iranian plot to kill an Iranian American journalist was part of an intelligence information operation to manufacture a casus belli to attack Iran. https://ronpaulinstitute.org/has-trump-derailed-a-deep-state-plot-to-attack-iran/

The Bogus Iranian Assassination Plot This thing stinks to high heaven. It sounds like something the FBI cooked up to create a meme prior to Trump’s election, with the goal of portraying Iran as the ultimate empire of evil. In my opinion, if you buy into this, you’re being played for a chump. https://ronpaulinstitute.org/the-bogus-iranian-assassination-plot/

Is Trump Trolling the Democrats and RINOS? Since none of the nominees are on the job, we will have to wait-and-see who merits being labeled, Good, Bad or Ugly. I want to reiterate a point I made yesterday — there is a lot that can happen in Ukraine and the Middle East before January 20th. https://ronpaulinstitute.org/is-trump-trolling-the-democrats-and-rinos/

Then, after they murdered bin Laden in his home in Pakistan in 2011, they decided that Khalid Shaikh Mohammed was the real mastermind and they would try him in a military court and seek the death penalty. https://ronpaulinstitute.org/gitmo-continues-to-haunt/
