AKRON, Ohio, Feb. 3, 2016 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- "It's been a long time since Congress needed a majority to pass a law," says Jim Babka, President of DownsizeDC.org, Inc. "But that could change, thanks to Representative Mia Love of Utah. She has introduced our 'One Subject at a Time Act' (OSTA) in the House (HR 4335)."

Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul announced Wednesday morning that he is suspending his 2016 presidential campaign.

Paul released a statement saying that he intends to end his campaign where he began,“ready and willing to fight for the cause of Liberty.”

The discussions revolving around the U.S.’s (and others’) role in aiding refugees has generated heated discussions. Arguments of American values and national security have dominated debates. However, one topic has strangely eluded public discourse – the role refugees play in defeating ISIS.

The Denver Post reported in August that the Republican Party of Colorado canceled its presidential caucus after the RNC approved a rule change that could negatively impact the state's influence in the most open GOP primary contest in modern U.S. history.

From The Denver Post:

The Democratic primary race appeared to be incredibly close during the Iowa caucus Monday night, where candidate Hillary Clinton reportedly won at least six precincts by way of a coin toss.

While the caucus numbers led former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley to drop out of the race, it left Clinton and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders in a virtual tie in several precincts.

Some precincts solved the tie by flipping a coin and various reports show that in at least six different cases, Clinton was declared the winner of the precinct based off of the coin toss.

Since the early days of Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign, my social media feed has been filled with a menagerie of Bernie-themed GIFs, clickbait, news, and statuses. On Facebook and Twitter it has appeared, for months now, that Sanders’ campaign is the focal point of the world -- the emphasis of the media’s coverage of the 2016 race and a barometer of Sanders’ success in his presidential bid.

Both Bernie Sanders (D) and Donald Trump (R) have had rock star appeal in the realm of politics this cycle, filling stadiums and venues with people eager to hear their message.

But while these people might want to be entertained by a fresh political message, getting them to the polls is the key. For that, you need the traditional ground game.

THE IOWA CAUCUSES CONSUMED NATIONAL MEDIA, especially the Republican race. They spent oodles of money, time and personnel to cover this first-in-the-nation “primary.”

The cable networks, Fox, CNN, and MSNBC, we're all over it – hour by hour, day by day, week by week. And, of course, last night, caucus night, they OD'd on coverage.

But here’s the reality they neither did not nor will report:

Of 1,060,896 Iowa Republicans registered in the state’s four congressional districts, only 186,795 showed up at their party’s caucuses to vote for their party’s 11 candidates.

The first interview I ever did on my radio show with Jeffrey Tucker was so compelling and, for want of a better word, important, that he and I immediately decided we would have to do a second, to expand on the themes discussed. I couldn't have expected that the second interview could have been better than the first - but I think it was. The evidence is below, in the transcript of my second interview with Jeffrey Tucker.
