An Interview With the Economic Hit Man
“We Have Created the World’s First Truly Global Empire”. Most of the people in the United States have no idea that we’ve created this empire and, in fact, throughout the world it’s been done very quietly, unlike old empires, where the army marched in.

The President of the United States has no authority to issue an executive order granting Libby or all the angels in heaven the authority to (…)
