Over the long weekend before the Mississippi and Michigan primaries, the sky above Sea Island was black with corporate jets.
Apple’s Tim Cook, Google’s Larry Page and Eric Schmidt, Napster’s Sean Parker, Tesla Motors’ Elon Musk, and other members of the super-rich were jetting in to the exclusive Georgia resort, ostensibly to participate in the annual World Forum of the American Enterprise Institute.
Among the advertised topics of discussion: “Millennials: How Much Do They Matter and What Do They Want?”
That was the cover story.
As revealed by the Huffington Post, Sea Island last weekend was host to a secret conclave at the Cloisters where oligarchs colluded with Beltway elites to reverse the democratic decisions of millions of voters and abort the candidacy of Donald Trump.
Among the journalists at Sea Island were Rich Lowry of National Review, which just devoted an entire issue to the topic: “Against Trump,” and Arthur Sulzberger, publisher of the Trumphobic New York Times.
Bush guru Karl Rove of FOX News was on hand, as were Speaker Paul Ryan, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Sen. Lindsey Graham, dispatched by Trump in New Hampshire and a berserker on the subject of the Donald.
So, too, was William Kristol, editor of the rabidly anti-Trump Weekly Standard, who reported back to comrades: “The key task now, to … paraphrase Karl Marx, is less to understand Trump than to stop him.”
Kristol earlier tweeted that the Sea Island conclave is “off the record, so please do consider my tweets from there off the record.”
Redeeming itself for relegating Trump to its entertainment pages, the Huffington Post did the nation a service in lifting the rug on “something rotten in the state.”
What we see at Sea Island is that, despite all their babble about bringing the blessings of “democracy” to the world’s benighted, AEI, Neocon Central, believes less in democracy than in perpetual control of the American nation by the ruling Beltway elites.
If an outsider like Trump imperils that control, democracy be damned. The elites will come together to bring him down, because, behind party ties, they are soul brothers in the pursuit of power.
Something else was revealed by the Huffington Post — a deeply embedded corruption that permeates this capital city.
The American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research is a 501(c)(3) under IRS rules, an organization exempt from U.S. taxation.
Million-dollar corporate contributions to AEI are tax-deductible.
This special privilege, this freedom from taxation, is accorded to organizations established for purposes such as “religious, educational, charitable, scientific, literary … or the prevention of cruelty to children or animals.”
What the co-conspirators of Sea Island were up at the Cloisters was about as religious as what the Bolsheviks at that girls school known as the Smolny Institute were up to in Petrograd in 1917.
From what has been reported, it would not be extreme to say this was a conspiracy of oligarchs, War Party neocons, and face-card Republicans to reverse the results of the primaries and impose upon the party, against its expressed will, a nominee responsive to the elites’ agenda.
And this taxpayer-subsidized “Dump Trump” camarilla raises even larger issues.
Now America is not Russia or Egypt or China.
But all those countries are now moving purposefully to expose U.S. ties to nongovernmental organizations set up and operating in their capital cities.
Many of those NGOs have had funds funneled to them from U.S. agencies such as the National Endowment for Democracy, which has backed “color-coded revolutions” credited with dumping over regimes in Serbia, Ukraine and Georgia.
In the early 1950s, in Iran and Guatemala, the CIA of the Dulles brothers did this work.
Whatever ones thinks of Vladimir Putin, can anyone blame him for not wanting U.S. agencies backing NGOs in Moscow, whose unstated goal is to see him and his regime overthrown?
And whatever one thinks of NED and its subsidiaries, it is time Americans took a hard look at the tax-exempt foundations, think tanks and public policy institutes operating in our capital city.
How many are like AEI, scheming to predetermine the outcome of presidential elections while enjoying tax exemptions and posturing as benign assemblages of disinterested scholars and seekers of truth?
How many of these tax-exempt think tanks are fronts and propaganda organs of transnational corporations that are sustained with tax-deductible dollars, until their “resident scholars” can move into government offices and do the work for which they have been paid handsomely in advance?
How many of these think tanks take foreign money to advance the interests of foreign regimes in America’s capital?
We talk about the “deep state” in Turkey and Egypt, the unseen regimes that exist beneath the public regime and rule the nation no matter the president or prime minister.
What about the “deep state” that rules us, of which we caught a glimpse at Sea Island?
A diligent legislature of a democratic republic would have long since dragged America’s deep state out into the sunlight.
What’s a Napster?
Ted Cruz is the best you got?
Not poor Ted if Trump doesn't get the number but he will pretty easy
You don’t remember Napster?
Napster was the name given to two music-focused online services. It was originally founded as a pioneering peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing Internet service that emphasized sharing audio files, typically music, encoded in MP3 format. The original company ran into legal difficulties over copyright infringement, ceased operations and was eventually acquired by Roxio. In its second incarnation Napster became an online music store until it was acquired by Rhapsody from Best Buy on December 1, 2011.

Larry Lucido: Whats a Napster?
...
It’s almost like something from a James Bond movie where Spectre meeting in a secret island hideout to plot to stop Donald “James Bond” Trump from ruining their plans to rule the world. They are so pathetic.
I don’t see this so much as a conspiracy against Donald Trump as I see it as a clear conspiracy against America.
The choice is to remove these people from influence over our lives and our freedom and to tear down the establishment that allows them to operate so freely, indeed, operate in tax-free fashion.
You certainly cannot do this if you become their standard bearer.
Napster started the illegal file sharing revolution, or at least made it go mainstream, in the late 1990’s. It was gobbled up by Rhapsody (Real Networks) and now charges a few per download.
Yeah, just being a bit facetious. The “new” napster is nothing like the original.
Pat Buchanan telling it like it is! Thank you, Pat.
Totally agree. Keeping track of these names. I’ve compiled quite a list since the 2/15 issue of national Review and since the debates started. This election has opened the eyes of millions like me.
They did skype.
If that's not already too tin-foil-sounding for some, I'll make it even more so now-I believe this determined effort to establish and maintain the friendly globalist power around the world for these elites is a straight path leading to the predicted one-world power named in the Bible as the antichrist. Because we see this global consolidation not only in the financial arena, but in the political one (attempting to impose global political “solutions” to things such as “climate change”, freedom of speech, gun control and confiscation, etc), and to herd religions into the ecumenicalism leading to the one-world religion. Hence the antipathy to Biblical Christianity, which is exclusive in its belief, from Jesus’ Own words, that He and He alone is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and no man comes to the Father except through Him.
Islam is also exclusivist, but gets a pass for now as a useful tool.
This particular instance is anti-American, but they have their counterparts globally, and they’re all on the same page.
Tax exemption is irrelevant. They are engaged in treason.
These evil damn people plot to deny us our rightful voice.
“...remove these people from influence over our lives and our freedom...”
He can go after the bilderbergers too.
I’m surprised George Soros wasn’t there.
Same here. Before this election, I was a card-carrying neo-con and oblivious of the control the oligarchs had in this country. My eyes have been opened, and no matter what happens in this election, I will never see things the same way.

The federal government is a RICO organization
John Gotti would be proud to run it
