Pat Buchanan: The Sea Island Conspiracy Against Donald Trump

TownHall.com ^ | March 10, 2016 | Pat Buchanan

[VitacoreVision]

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.

“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.”

I don’t think I’ve seen a more succinct mission statement on air or in print. Putting things in this way gives clarity and purpose.

You sure have the ‘gift of the pen’.

Interesting development yesterday, where thousands of mass duplicate votes on the 'Drudge Poll' originated from this island (Sea Island) off Georgia. Below is the FR thread with some of the salient posts

**DRUDGE POLL** WHO WON THE 12TH REPUBLICAN DEBATE '16?

I did some more analysis. Besides Shanghai, like I said, I noticed a big "data dump" coming in from a small island off of Georgia, which via a Palo Alto Firewall got over to Delaware.
When mapping this out, I found it here:

Sea Island and Jekyll island are both in Glynn county GA.

We know what came out of Jekyll island.

Well, when I was young it was the Naval Academy Prepatory School established to prepare young sailors for the rigors that they will encounter at Annapolis. Those who attended that school were called Napsters.

What was with the chicken bleep comment from Cruz last night saying that Trump can lead the Smithsonian.

[BobL]

But since Cruz supporters are ‘voting on principal’, none of this matters to them.

You should see the monster from up close. The elites are not even very elite. They lack heads, hearts, and courage. For the most part these folks inside the Beltway are LOSERS. They have never done anything real, like even fix their own plumbing. These are the guys who, never having served in the military, got us into Iraq as something in the supreme national interest - lining the pockets of the military industrial complex. Even though I live here, someone should just nuke the whole place. The country will be far better off.

[Mouton]

We know what came out of Jekyll island.

The Creature from Jekyll Island...good read.

We saw the results of that meeting last night: a quiet debate. The idea now is make sure none of the three remaining anti trump candidates take themselves out by looking petty. They are hoping for at least three of them to get enough votes to deny Trump a first ballot victory and the projections are that will happen. Meanwhile, the media is replete with venomous attacks on Trump here everyday in Fl. Today he is a draft dodger. I kind of missed which of the attorneys running against him was in the military but that is a side issue. These ads are funded by the same people who were at Sea Island, or their PACs, especially the one run by fat boy Rove.

the Smithsonian.

The Smithsonian and National Gallery are true treasures in this otherwise god-forsaken cesspit.

[BlackAdderess]

That’s really interesting, I’m glad you all have that attempted hack documented!

[BlackAdderess]

Pot shot at his age, “belongs in a museum”. The interesting thing is that if Trump is cleaning Cruz’s clock, where does that mean that he belongs?

[Mr. Jeeves]

Well, if any independent-minded President ever gets in a position to do anything about it, his Federal Marshals will have an easy time rounding up the suspects - just pose as waiters at Sea Island and they can incarcerate the entire Deep State apparatus in 15 minutes. :)

Regarding your post #24..

I commented last night that this has significance.

The 44,000 votes that came from there were not some school kid hacker hiding behind that concealed firewall.

Unfortunately we have no "Woodward & Bernstein" type journalists in today's world.

These smart fellers must all need a calendar. Trump’s been in the race since June 2015 and has been winning for months. Only now they decide they have an emergency on their hands?

Short of the old ‘live boy/dead girl’ political disaster scenario, what do the mucky-mucks imagine they can do or say to stop Trump now? As Pat says, they have spent millions and spilled oceans of ink already to little effect. In fact, their smug preaching and snide insults have had the opposite of the intended effect. The GOPe is indistinguishable from the DNC in their sad, desperate, predictable use of tired old David Duke and KKK smears.

The talk of rigging the convention is just that - talk. Short Attention Span America is a problem but not in this case...they simply won’t stand for premeditated and obvious cheating no matter how many times DC talking heads explain it. On a practical level their only hope is Cruz and if Cruz goes along with it he risks a backlash and quite legitimate charges of hypocrisy. Surely he is clever enough to know that a rattlesnake curling around his leg isn’t there to give him a hug.

Note that the lefties aren’t moaning about Citizens United when all the dark money is spent on taking down the GOP frontrunner.

Buchanan, admittedly, has his own axes to grind with the GOP and the Bushies (possibly redundant) over his treatment in ‘92 in which he was the maverick candidate. But that only means he knows of that which he speaks.

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.

I'm with you. My knowledge went only as far as the GOPe didn't even try to stop Obama. I just thought they didn't want to upset the applecart and were lazy.

Now, I see how 'they' are all tied together in a neat little bow. A year ago, I wouldn't have put Cruz into their group but, with the Bushes added to his campaign, I see Cruz is nothing like I thought he was. He may not be liked in the Senate, but that has more to do with his personality than his politics.

Pray for the safety of Donald Trump and his family.

Rush Limbaugh mentioned this meeting a few days ago. He seemed to be unable to draw the connection between what they were planning and why they would back Cruz in order to carry it out.

There was much static on the radio, but from what I heard, he seemed perplexed as to why they would choose Cruz, who is, he claims, so hated by the Establishment. Limbaugh always fails to remember Cruz’s globalist voting patterns.

Limbaugh evidently never asks himself why the globalists want to stop Trump. They obviously consider Trump to be pro-American and that just want do.
