"Liberal-fascism": rule by a corporatist oligarchy, behind a false front of liberal democracy.

In the US, the "central committee" is the Council on Foreign Relations and its interlocking network of corporations, foundations, and NGOs which have controlled the US govt and media since WW2, regardless of which puppet sits in the White House. See charts: swprs.org/the-american-empire-and-its-media/

"The powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences...

The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one perhaps of the Right, and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea... Instead, the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can 'throw the rascals out' at any election without leading to any profound or extensive shifts in policy..."

-- Carroll Quigley, CFR historian, "Tragedy and Hope" (1966)

NO WAY THEY DIDN’T SEE HIM! Video Shows Trump Shooter Visible in Plain Sight

In Copenhaver’s video, taken at 6:08 PM – three minutes before Crooks opened fire – you can see the shooter running around on the rooftop overlooking the podium where Trump was speaking.

But if this was visible from the ground, there’s absolutely ZERO chance that the snipers who were looking from an elevated vantage point simply didn’t see him.

ESPECIALLY considering the reports that they were made of a suspicious individual with a range finder 90 MINUTES before the shooting shouldn’t they have been EXTRA CAUTIOUS looking for someone who might – I don’t know, climb up on the roof with a rifle after checking the range for a shot required to kill President Trump?!

Nothing to see here folks the Secret Service definitely didn’t know he was up there and let him get off a couple of shots at President Trump before taking him out… our corrupt federal agencies would never do that!

Watch the video here to see how absurd it is that they are claiming they didn’t see him on the rooftop.

You have let your artistic talents loose, in this treatise on Jacobin.

The collectivism sucks, to put it mildly.

Congratulations, one of your best ever!

And not a mention of railroads!

Massively impressive, Mr. Smith.
