It turns the entire concept of “civil servant” on its head.

#1. I’m getting a security warning about your first item, “List of members of Council on Foreign Relations”.

Not considered safe to visit it. Can you provide a better link?

Thank you for calling it to my attention. I don’t get that warning, but it’s not the correct link anyway. :(

The CORRECT link listing members of the Council on Foreign Relations is a wiki page:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Members_of_the_Council_on_Foreign_Relations

Another link for the article itself is here:

A false narrative of danger from a foreign source? You mean I should not worry about communism or Islam? OK that is such a relief. And certainly there is no danger from a local source.

The second link in post #1 is still good, that’s a very detailed and disturbing chart of all the media connections to those 3 nebulous groups that have such an influence on the US

thanks

Name one point in history where government directed propaganda has provided long term successes?

The need for propaganda in itself explains that lies are needed to obscure the truth. The truth if fact based always makes itself known.

Half of those people belong in jail. Two sitting SC justices are members, really? Nazi collaborator Soros is a member, really?

And these are the ruling elite? More correctly, they are all POS.

Skip the intermediaries. The CFR’s own list is:

https://www.cfr.org/membership/membership-roster-a-f

The CFR also has corporate members.

The CFR is part of the Deep State. A president can fire everyone he wants, but going to the usual CFR/Goldman-Sachs pool for replacements is not remotely draining The Swamp.

50% correct

_All_ of those people belong in jail because this is a criminal enterprise--and "I was just obeying orders" or "I didn't know" just doesn't cut it.

There are 90 members with last names beginning with Y or Z (42 and 48, respectively). That membership roster has to be over 2000 names long.

Shirley Temple was a member?

You can only apply between the ages of 30 and 36 for the 5-year membership? But at any time for the lifetime membership? Huh?

If "Only U.S. citizens (native born or naturalized) and permanent residents who have applied for U.S. citizenship are eligible", then how is George Soros on the list?

Yes. Most players in Big Media, as well as politically ambitious in the military, etc. It’s a big Swamp.

Even more insiders are CFRers through companies they control, but may not have the own names on the roster.

It has 4900 members, apparently.

“...Tells Gov’t They “Have To” Use Propaganda on Americans”

What more of that can they do? Been going on for decades.

I browsed the list and its amazing there you see the late Roger Ailes of Fox News along with Fareed Zakaria of CNN.

You all think they are players on different teams but its ultimately not true when it comes to national and international policy.
