Every flock camera must be removed immediately.

Hop in... best dimension yet.

I could only dream of having this opportunity when I was this age. A full scholarship to be a 2026 Ron Paul Scholar? We should have hundreds of applications. We don't. Do none of you care? Should we shut it down? If no one cares...we will shut it down. And Ron Paul will be gone. Is that the world you want? ronpaulinstitute.org/apply-today-20…


If America does regime change in Iran, it won't be for the first time. We also did it in the 1950s. The CIA hired mobsters, paid protesters, and generously doled out bribes to facilitate a military coupe overthrowing then-prime minister Mohammed Mosaddegh. Mossadegh was, maybe, a bit pro-Soviet. His replacement, the shah, was secular and pro-American. But the long-term outcome of that coup was disastrous. When Islamic radicals toppled the shah 26 years later, they had an incandescent hatred for America. The negative consequences of 45 years of antagonism with Iran outweigh whatever good we got from the Shah a hundred times over. And that's how it's been with most of our regime change efforts. Toppling Saddam Hussein gave us a forever war and ISIS and emboldened Iran. Toppling the Taliban gave us a forever war that ended with the Taliban back in power. Toppling Libya gave us slave markets in Tripoli and a vastly worse European migrant crisis. Regime change wars almost never go the way they're expected to, and can easily make things far worse at tremendous cost. That's exactly why war should only be a last resort, when absolutely necessary. Subscribe to The Charlie Kirk Show to listen to the full episode ⬇️ bit.ly/3QHIUrC
