Interviewed Wednesday by host Stuart Varney at Fox Businesses, libertarian communicator and former United States House of Representatives member Ron Paul shared some of his thoughts about Facebook’s “absurd” blocking of Paul from using his Facebook account, as well as about the related threat of fascism.

Watch Paul’s interview here.

The same day as Facebook blocked Paul from using his Facebook account, Paul had earlier posted at the Ron Paul Institute website and in social media, including at his Facebook page, an editorial in which he strongly challenged social media companies’ efforts to purge people including President Donald Trump.
