If this is like any previous governmental foul-ups, we can expect hearings, investigations, and commissions that will actually serve to hide the official errors or even malicious intent by some in the government. That’s what government does no matter who is in office: protect itself from actual scrutiny and resist being exposed as incompetent or worse.
We live in an empire of lies, propped up by the mainstream media.

I've listened Ron Paul a little bit. IMO, he seems more inclined to Cryptocurrency not Bitcoin!

He is just complaining how terrible everything is, what's the point of that?
What if this was just incompetence in a specific situation and is not reflective of all of government and all of media and "the elites" and government diversity efforts (god forbid the idea that diversity might even improve things) and the moral state of the country? Not very helpful commentary, IMHO.

We live in an empire of lies, propped up by the mainstream media. And seeking the truth in this empire of lies is the greatest challenge for us in the moral bankruptcy in which we live.
Classic Ron Paul conclusion.

This is why we need more citizens journalism - the evils that be will continue to hide everything from the mainstream. Fringe publications and "conspiracies" tend to be more along truth than whatever comes from the mainstream now a days.

This guy always seems like he knows which end is up. Wish he could get into office again. I know he is old, but more senile than Biden.

We are watching the empire crumble slowly. I just pray we can avoid revolution for the sake of my family.
