Many Congress members in Washington, DC are loudly proclaiming their support for the United States government continuing and even increasing its support for the Ukraine government’s fight against Russia. In contrast, former US House of Representatives member Ron Paul is arguing, as he did when he was a member of the House, that the US government should mind its own business in regard to Ukraine.

Interviewed this week by host Michelle Makori at Kitco News, Paul presented arguments for the US government pursuing a noninterventionist course. Instead of acting as “the policeman of the world” choosing to intervene in this one of many conflicts taking place around the world, the US government should cut off support — including money, advisors, trainers, and weapons — for Ukraine in its fight against Russia, suggests Paul. The “morally correct position” for the US government to take, argues Paul in the interview, is “minding our own business,” not “giving more money and guns” to Ukraine.

Paul notes that, when the US government intervened militarily in Korea and Vietnam in decades past, those interventions were promoted as “our moral duty.” But, the reality, Paul relates, is the interventions meant expanded war and the deaths of more innocent people.

The US government’s failure to mind its own business in regard to Ukraine did not just start this year. Instead, says Paul, the new US actions this year are a continuation of a long-term intervention that includes the US government having participated in the 2014 coup that ousted Ukraine President Victor Yanukovych, who Paul describes as having been “somewhat fair and balanced in treating the Russians.” That coup, Paul says he thinks is “one of the most important events leading up to the crisis we have now.”

One of the most successful disinformation campaigns in modern American electoral history occurred in the weeks prior to the 2020 presidential election. On October 14, 2020 — less than three weeks before Americans were set to vote — the nation’s oldest newspaper, The New York Post, began publishing a series of reports about the business dealings of the Democratic frontrunner Joe Biden and his son, Hunter, in countries in which Biden, as Vice President, wielded considerable influence (including Ukraine and China) and would again if elected president.

The backlash against this reporting was immediate and intense, leading to suppression of the story by US corporate media outlets and censorship of the story by leading Silicon Valley monopolies. The disinformation campaign against this reporting was led by the CIA’s all-but-official spokesperson Natasha Bertrand (then of Politico, now with CNN), whose article on October 19 appeared under this headline: “Hunter Biden story is Russian disinfo, dozens of former intel officials say.”

These “former intel officials” did not actually say that the “Hunter Biden story is Russian disinfo.” Indeed, they stressed in their letter the opposite: namely, that they had no evidence to suggest the emails were falsified or that Russia had anything to do them, but, instead, they had merely intuited this “suspicion” based on their experience:
