Ron Paul Fears The CIA Is The Biggest Threat To Americans’ Liberty



RON PAUL FEARS THE CIA IS THE
BIGGEST THREAT TO AMERICAN'S LIBERTY

As the Senate scrambled to pass the USA Freedom Act this evening, reinstating the agency’s ability to spy on Americans, Ron Paul points out that US intelligence organizations have always – and will continue – to operate outside the law;


with Daniel McAdams noting the CIA “is sort of the President’s own Praetorian Guard.”


As Sputnik News reports, before Americans applaud a minor step toward transparency, Paul warns that they should recognize the corrosive nature of the CIA, “They are a secret government,” operating way above the law, and are “way out of control.”


“[The CIA] is sort of the President’s own Praetorian Guard,” Daniel McAdams, from the Institute of Peace and Prosperity, said on the Ron Paul Liberty Report. 


“We know…that he sent assassination squads, he sent people to monitor Martin Luther King, and all sorts of things like this.”


“This is like his own personal army which is accountable to no one,” McAdams adds.





As Sputnik News reports, according to Paul, the CIA could be an even bigger threat to liberty than McAdams suggests. A covert army that doesn’t answer to Congress, the Supreme Court, or even the president.
“That, to me, was the most frightening experience in Washington, is there were black budgets. We never knew exactly how much money was spent,” Paul says. 
Those secret budgets have allowed the CIA to carry out some pretty shady practices over the years. Chiefly, assassinations.

There are certainly a lot of theories about the CIA being involved in even domestic assassinations, and they certainly are now involved in presidential directed assassinations,” Paul says. 
The US has covertly and overtly influenced elections overseas a number of times,” McAdams says. “It’s a very open secret that the CIA infiltrates monitoring organizations like the OSCE with their personnel.”
For some, the USA Freedom Act and similar legislation may be the best way to rein in renegade intelligence agencies. But as Paul notes, many laws already exist to implement limitations. These laws are routinely ignored.
They are a secret government,” Paul says of the CIA. “Way out of control.” 
Nevertheless, Paul ends on an optimistic note, pointing out that young Americans are tired of the status quo and fed up with broad government overreach. 
In a true republic, there is no place for an organization like the CIA,” Dr. Paul says, quoting former FBI agent Dan Smoot. “I think he’s closer to the truth than a lot of what’s going on today.”

as always RON PAUL has this absolutely right, the CIA and the NSA including homeland security and all the other small fry allied to this network who are so BLATENLY obvious to the rest of the world who are not subtle in any way unlike the BRITS who think that they are both subtle and sophisticated, who really have no JAMES BONDS in sight and never did have who are really nothing but a bunch of gutless college dropouts or more like THROWOUTS. a fine example of thud and blunder is by the CIA was their sabotage of the Malaysia airlines over the UKRAINE and all the others and their threatening the DUTCH government into silence from their investigation into it, the rest of the world is now wise to it and the American people are just starting to catch onto it, and RON PAUL has always been ahead of the game, and shame on the USA he should have been president years ago because he has no contenders, does anyone know that AMERICA, BRITAIN and ISRAEL make up the biggest terrorist network in the world its called ABI.
