For the last few decades, regardless of
the political party in control of American governance, mainstream America
remained frustrated by a lack of representation. The more things changed,
the more they remained the same. A year after the election of President
Trump, we have yet to see a Republican Congress make good on its promise to repeal
Obamacare and institute tax reform. The election of Donald Trump held
hope for millions of Americans who believed they now had a voice in our halls
of governance, but that voice is continuously trampled on as the puppet-masters
behind the scenes succeed at stifling the will of the American people.
The greatness of America was a government for the people and by
the people, but that ideal has been eroded in favor of a new American oligarchy
led by billionaires such as George Soros, Tom Steyer, Bill Gates, Warren Buffett,
and Mark Zuckerberg, to name a few. They are men of the left and unlike
prior rich men in American history, they can now control our election process,
both halls of Congress, our courts, our schools, the press, and media
outlets. Yes, there are conservative billionaires, but they are not
nearly as influential as today's globalists. It has been reported that
39% of the wealthiest donors back Democrats and that number will only increase
with the new young card-carrying liberal titans from the Silicon Valley.
After all, Google, Facebook and most Internet titans are fueled by government
projects; thus, their interest lies with big government favored
by Democrats.
Frustrated by the presidential election of Donald Trump, George
Soros has doubled down and recently pledged to contribute $18 billion to his
Open Society Foundations for an overall total of $32 billion. Contrary to
its mission claim, "to built vibrant and tolerant democracies," Soros
seeks to subvert and suppress the will of the people by using his billions to
control America's agenda towards a One World Government without borders, and
with him at the helm.
Beginning in 1994 with the defeat of Hillary Clinton's
nationalized health care bill, Soros' groups and a few other leftist
organizations began to bankroll front groups whose aim was to persuade Congress
that Americans were clamoring for "campaign finance reform." In
a ten year period, they spent $140 million dollars to promote it, and the
result was the McCain-Feingold Act signed into law by President George W. Bush
in 2002. The new law placed restrictions on political donations. It
prevented citizen-activist groups and corporations from advertising on T.V. for
60 days prior to elections and 30 days prior to primaries while exempting media
networks; thus, giving Democrats an automatic advantage since they enjoy the
near universal support of America's leading media outlets.
As a result, a network of "527 Committees," named after
code 527 of the IRS code, were set up, and unlike PACS, were not required to
register with the FEC; nor were they bound by any legal limits to raise soft
money. While steering clear of "express advocacy" as prohibited
under the McCain-Feingold bill, they were permitted to steer their funds to
issue-oriented ads, voter education initiatives, and get-out-the-vote drives to
favor one party or candidate over another. By giving directly to
independent groups rather than to the party itself, big ticket donors could
influence campaign strategy and tactics more directly than they had
previously. Thus, Soros gained control of an alternative network of
soft money supply and power.....all absent prior to the passage of
McCain-Feingold . In 2010, the Supreme Court overturned much of the
McCain-Feingold Act, but kept in place the ban on soft money donations to
political parties. This ban has permitted Soros to continue to use his
billions to influence our election process and thwart the will of the people.
Another billionaire with a globalist agenda is Bill Gates who has
used his millions to fund Planned Parenthood and U.N. agencies. He is
responsible for the creation, implementation, and promotion of Common Core
state standards, and he was pivotal in advancing Barack Obama's educational
agenda. Aside from rewriting history with a biased curriculum in disfavor
of Western Civilization, Common Core eliminated local school governance and
placed it under the control of an ever-growing federal bureaucracy. As
Karl Marx noted in his Communist Manifesto, "government-controlled
schooling is essential to achieving the goals of Socialism." In that
effort, texts and analysis are used to guide students thinking towards a
predetermined outcome.
A free press is essential to a free society, but with the
development of the Internet and the handful of leftist billionaires who now
control it, conservatives are finding it difficult to get their message out
without being threatened with sanctions and exclusion under the guise of
"hate speech." Google and Apple control 98% of the market share
in mobile phone operating systems; thus, they are erasing the First Amendment
rights of conservatives on the information highway. Although they are
private companies, the information highway is a public utility and as such all
are entitled to equal access. Facebook is an important distributor of
news and Mark Zuckerberg, its founder and a globalist, is notorious for muting
conservatives while amplifying progressives. Along with Saudi Arabia, a
state known for silencing free press and Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, who
has invested $300 million in Twitter, conservative Americans are at a loss as
we watch our First Amendment rights guaranteed by our Constitution being eroded
by American and foreign billionaires.
While the oligarchs have used their billions to influence both
sides of the aisle within our halls of Congress, George Soros in particular has
financed a $45 million scheme to reshape state supreme courts. His
mission with the aid of state trial lawyers associations is to replace
conservative rule of law judges with leftist men in black robes who will apply
foreign law (Sharia) and theories into their decision making process. In
effect, Soros is creating a judicial oligarchy as well as a judicial supremacy.
The left now controls more than half the district courts and more then half the
circuits. By placing nationwide injunctions against President Trump's
executive orders, a handful of district lower court judges are illegally
dictating our immigration policies reserved for Congress and the Executive
Branch.
Then there is Tom Steyer, an environmentalist hedge fund
billionaire from California who has spent $90 million to back Democratic
candidates. Currently he has spent $10 million on a campaign to impeach
our current president by running fraudulent television informercials calling
for President Trump's impeachment. With an utter disregard and
disrespect for the 64 million Americans who voted to elect President Trump,
Steyer, the self-righteous globalist, knows better then working class Americans
what is in their best interest; thus, he too uses his millions to erase our
voice and right to self-governance.
Many Americans are waking up to the reality that American politics
is no longer about Republicans and Democrats. Now more than ever, it is a
war between the elite established American oligarchy and the American
people. If Americans seek to regain control of self- governance, then the
oligarchy whose allegiance is not to America, but to a global community
governed by globalist billionaires, must have their power removed. We
have fought for our self- preservation for over 200 years, and we are not about
to quietly yield it over to a handful of globalists without a fight. It
will take Americans from all walks of life to come together to oppose this
un-American oligarchy and nothing will facilitate that more than the removal of
a duly elected president.
