Mike Benz Explains History of Secret Government and National Security Imperative to Lie to Congress.
Green Liberty advocates that the Green Party media directly address the problem of state crimes as a corruption of our democracy and the republic for which it stands. Green Liberty is in solidarity with the critique of the national security state, but would take Benz’s critique and use it to rationalize why we need to remove the rich from power in the course of advancing an egalitarian revolution as an answer to the problem of what Mike Benz lays out.
We encourage Green Party candidates to frankly address the problem of state crimes and the associated corruption with a demand for accountability. Mike Benz provides the historical backdrop for how the United States government formed a deep state to conceal operations the American people would not approve of; they developed the theory of plausible deniability in 1948 in a policy directive from George Kennan, a key figure in the development of the CIA and national security state. Watch video to learn more.
In this lecture to Hillsdale College, Mike Benz advances a strong criticism of our national security state. He shows how the Smith – Mundt Act of 1948 sets the stage for a national security state founded on big lies. This deception is foundational to the Cold War and the development of Vietnam and all the wars that followed, enabling elite impunity to act outside the purview of congress.

The Smith-Mundt act of 1948 was “amended in HR4310 signed into law by Barack Obama on December 29, 2012 buried in the text of section 1078 of the bill “The 2013 National Defense Authorization Act”. You can look it up yourself. Isn’t it interesting that Congress can pass bills before they actually know what’s in them. If this doesn’t give us a iron clad reason to have and enforce a line item veto.

I think Mike loses the trail in the early 80’s — it’s true that the CIA is just sub-organization that serves a higher authority. Mike continually proposes that the higher authority is the dept of State, and thus he refers to the entire control structure as “the blob”, which is composed of public/private figures that spend their lives in revolving doors — I think that this is where he gets it wrong. There is a higher authority, BUT it’s not in govt.
Just like there is an entire umbrella of cut-outs that do the dirty work for the CIA off-books, the authority running the show is ALSO not in govt. There is a shadow regime that runs the cut-outs, the media (directly, without mockingbird), the corps, and the politicians (funding and withdrawing support). [Editor’s note: this is called plutocracy]
This regime effectuates this control through the hedgefunds. Blackrock (founded in the early 80’s), Vanguard, State-street. These groups assets have been built in various forms (legal and illegal) including profits from the defense contractors that they control. I will point out that the US national debt started it’s meteoric rise in the 80’s under Reagan — no president in modern history has seen a greater increase in national debt (measured as a percentage) as Reagan. In turn these hedgefunds have used their increasing assets to buy more and more control of corporations via the stock market — along with other assets. Now they have been buying private homes. Most people can see this corporate take-over of our society, but they think that this is separate from the intelligence apparatus and its control over our govt — BUT THEY ARE THE SAME.

BOYCOTTS are an OBVIOUS,peaceful solution to counter corruption & censorship NOW,without waiting for elections.
Demands for government & election integrity, freedom, secure borders,free speech & pardons have FAR more power once enough people back them up with boycotts.
Money talks the language that corrupt politicians & their big tech/MSM/pharma/bank/WEF cronies understand.
Why is there NOT EVEN ONE famous, pro-freedom podcaster promoting an action plan to counter corruption & censorship?
NONE of them promote any plan other than elections. Any of them could rally millions of people with JUST 1 TWEET It’s THAT simple.
Meanwhile, borders are unsecured, Assange suffered for years,J6ers still suffer in jail & the Constitution is ignored.
They need help NOW, before elections ACTION PLAN FOR IMMEDIATE CHANGE to counter the corruption & censorship by media/tech/pharma giants & politicians:
1)Cancel Cable/Satellite/Streaming TV
2)Boycott Apple,Google,Facebook,Amazon,Microsoft,Vanguard,Blackrock,WEF partners & other tech/MSM/bank/pharma giants Consider selling shares of big tech/media/finance/pharma stocks & mutual funds & investing in the best pro-freedom companie
3)Bank with small local banks Pay cash when possible
4)Demand pardons for Assange,Snowden,J6ers & other truth tellers
5)Demand secure borders (land/air/sea) Demand transparent elections with voter ID,hand counted & serial numbered paper ballots in which voters can verify online their vote was counted accurately with a receipt.
6)Use web browsers like Brave Use search engines like Brave Use email like Tuta & ProtonMail
7)Use a Linux OS on your PC rather than Windows/Mac/Chrome Most PCs can be switched to Linux & Linux is free Use a degoogled Android phone rather than iPhone/Google Android Use a Linux PC on your TV with wireless keyboard & touchpad for videos rather than smart TV apps/apple TV/roku/firestick Feel free to copy,paste and share this.
