Preface: Many Americans are waking up to the fact that the Republican and Democratic candidates are incredibly similar. See this, this, this, this, this, this, this.
Many people are starting to realize that Obama and Romney are virtually indistinguishable on war,jobs, freedoms and favoring fatcats instead of the little guy.
Many of us want a third party candidate to win … but are afraid of “wasting our vote”.
Leading conservatives and liberals say that we should vote for a third party candidate.
Judge Napolitano explained today why voting for a third [...]

The first ever GAO (Government Accountability Office) audit of the Federal Reserve was carried out in the past few months due to the Ron Paul, Alan Grayson Amendment to the Dodd-Frank bill, which passed last year. Jim DeMint, a Republican Senator, and Bernie Sanders, an independent
Senator, led the charge for a Federal Reserve audit in the Senate, but watered down the original language of the house [...]
This show on the House floor from Alan Grayson was one of the most entertaining bailout clips of the past 4 years. All the details are at this link:

Here were the facts at the time:
“A good portion of Red Roof’s remaining $407 million in debt, held on lenders’ balance sheets and intended for later securitization, landed with the Federal Reserve via Bear Stearns. The Fed holds $444 [...]

A recent appearance by top US bureaucrat Michele Leonhart is making a stir throughout the blogosphere because of its incompetence and evasiveness. But perhaps there is a bigger story.
In fact, one might argue Leonhart’s appearance signals a turning point in the “war on drugs” … much the way an appearance in 2009 by the Federal Reserve’s Inspector General Elizabeth Coleman helped puncture Fed [...]
I came across this page We Survived Bush, You’ll survive Obama when a friend shared a post where they asked for donations for Obama, Elizabeth Warren, Alan Grayson, and Denis Kunich, claiming that each of these candidates has a minimum donation of $10. With about 30 seconds I was able to discern that none of these candidates have a $10 minimum, with Obama being the only one with a limit at all ($3). I [...]
In light of the Federal Reserve annoncement today regarding the Credit Suisse/Maiden Lane purchase, I felt this was worth sharing.
It’s a CLASSIC!

This private bank run by the “Bank of England” has been stripping the US of its assets since the days of Andrew Jackson. If the $16,000,000,000,000.00 given away secretly, since 2007, to the member banks isn’t reason enough to overhaul our entire government financial system then our country is doomed to financial failure. You won’t read this in the mainstream media….but it may emerge in [...]

Now that Alan Grayson is no longer in Congress, Fed hearings have certainly lost that certain dose of panache which only a man, wearing a dollar sign tie, and cross examining the Fed’s General Counsel which grinning like a diabolical Tasmanian Devil, would bring to the table. We managed to catch up with Grayson during today’s session of Radio Free Dylan, in which the traditionally [...]

I have always mused and wondered out loud about the peculiar alliance between the likes of Ron Paul – a small government sound money advocate and people like Alan Grayson and Bernie Sanders who are admitted socialists. What is it about these two completely polarizing political viewpoints that brought them together to fight the Fed? In fact, I was utterly shocked [...]

Grayson is seemingly the only one in Congress trying to pierce this puss-filled criminal ponzi blister on all our houses.
We wholeheartedly agree with Grayson.

Dylan Ratigan, joined by the inimitable Alan Grayson and Bill Fleckenstein, does one of the best comprehensive summations of the where we are, how we got here, and why those responsible for the upcoming US default are still doing exactly what they were doing, through the enabling of the Federal Reserve. The logical question arises: when will someone finally do something about the situation the US is in right now? [...]
