As someone who has been politically active for a while now, it’s been curious to see how alliances have shifted in my lifetime, with some institutions once historically left now going right and vice-versa. Some will insist that Donald Trump caused this shift – others might argue this shift caused Trump.
Perhaps the clearest example of switching political dance partners is Corporate America and unions. Corporations embracing globalism abroad and mass migration at home has alienated blue-collar workers, providing Trump with the muscle to overpower the Republican Party into its current form. In the Democrats’ November post-mortem, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) was quick to blame his side’s historic losses on this fact. Others on the left have shown no such self-awareness, doubling down on the unpopular issues that led to their defeat: transgenderism, protesting Israel, energy foolishness, and so on.
But an even greater instance of swapping political dance partners is Big Pharma. Historically, Republicans supported the pharmaceutical industry on general free-market grounds, and in response, they supported our campaigns. But Big Pharma hasn’t exactly been our friend of late, with its exploitation of both the COVID “pandemic,” pushing of medication abortions, and transgender hysteria. So it’s unsurprising that one of Big Pharma’s best dance partners now is … Bernie Sanders.
And amidst this, Big Pharma is trying to pull the old Potomac Two-Step, attacking a federal program that helps mostly conservative people – ostensibly on conservative grounds – just so they can conserve more of their own money.
There’s an advocacy group called Building America’s Future, which has mounted a high-budget, multistate campaign against the federal 340B program. The campaign alleges that 340B subsidizes healthcare for illegal aliens and gender transitions for minors, thereby “secretly sabotaging [the president’s] agenda.” This campaign is running in Nebraska, North Dakota, Kentucky, and Utah – the home state of both myself and my former boss, Sen. Orrin Hatch (R), who helped create 340B more than 30 years ago. […]

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
