The Shadow
Men
What we shall call the "Shadow Men" are those who sit atop
the
Deep State pulling strings on behalf of the ultimate heavies -
the financial controllers and those who rule them.
In Europe, the biggies include
the Rothschilds, like those who
run the Economist.
In the US, it remains
the Rockefellers, or at least
their successors, like Jamie Dimon, the King of Wall
Street. [i]
Another name that frequently pops up is
Bill Gates.
One of the chief string-pullers,
Henry Kissinger, like Obama
a Nobel Peace Prize winner, is still around at age 100, at least
at this writing (October 2023).
On January 22, 2017, a curious article appeared in the Sunday
Guardian-India entitled, "Shadow Men Work to Remove President
Trump." [ii]
The author was a highly placed Indian
academic and journalist, Madhav Nalapat.
Nalapat states that his sources were
knowledgeable individuals,
"based in Chicago, Washington, New York,
and London."
He writes, only two days after Trump's
inauguration:
"If the plans activated since November 8,
2016 [election day], by the Shadow Men succeed, the 45th
President of the United States will not last in office
beyond a thousand days from his swearing-in on January 20,
2017.
The term Shadow Men refers to
officials and policymakers operating in a stealthily
coordinated manner to ensure the furtherance of specific
agendas unrelated to the public interest...
They represent the hitherto ubiquitous
and dominant Wall Street-Atlanticist alliance that has
devised and implemented policy in Washington for several
decades.
These Shadow Men form an informal club of
intelligence operatives, businesspersons, officials, and
politicians whose relevance to policymaking and whose
monetary wealth depend on the continuation of policies
helpful to the interests they support, even though these may
be harmful to the country they belong to." [iii]
The existence of a cabal like the "informal
club" described by Nalapat has long been suspected by observers
of the American scene.
A certain amount of flesh was put on the
bones of suspicion early on by Professor Carroll Quigley
in
The Anglo-American Establishment.
Nalapat continues:
Trump, Democrats Dig in as Impeachment
Drive Escalates
"Individuals with direct knowledge of the
'1,000-day plan'... warn that January 20, 2017, marked not
just Donald J. Trump's first day in office as the 45th US
President, but the acceleration of an ongoing campaign that
has been designed to ensure that President Trump,
'does not continue in the world's
most powerful job for more than a thousand days'."
Nalapat describes the planned mechanism for
getting rid of Trump:
"According to individuals revealing
details of the 1,000-day ouster plan,
'the preferred route is a steady
increase in public pressure, which would lead to the 45th
President's impeachment by the US Congress on the basis
of presumed misdemeanors.
These would be played up by media
persons, who regularly get briefed by officials active
in the shadow network...
It was explained that the Shadow Men
are apprehensive that the strong-willed billionaire may
refuse to get house-trained in the manner that Hillary
Clinton so transparently was.
In their view, the role of an elected
head of state is in many aspects ceremonial, and on
matters of national security and strategy, he or she
should, in essence, follow the agenda set for him by the
interests represented and protected by the Shadow Men'."
President Donald Trump was impeached by the
US House of Representatives on December 13, 2019.
This was 1,057 days after Trump's
inauguration, almost exactly on the Shadow Men's timetable
that Nalapat revealed.
Like so much else that was going on at the
time, the impeachment also revolved around Ukraine and Russia,
with Trump supposedly soliciting Ukrainian President Zelensky
in a single phone call for dirt on Joe Biden.
Trump fought back by going on Twitter.
Trump called the impeachment inquiry "a
coup."
He said it was intended,
"to take away the power of [the] people,
their vote, [and] their freedoms" and that the Democrats
were "wasting everyone's time and energy on bullshit."
He said:
"All Republicans must remember what they
are witnessing here - a lynching! But we will WIN!"
In House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff's
opening argument at Trump's Senate impeachment trial, he
chastised Trump for abusing the US relationship with Ukraine by
citing a statement from a witness at the House impeachment
inquiry:
"The United States aids Ukraine and her
people so that they can fight Russia over there, and we
don't have to fight Russia here."
Thus, the impeachment attempt had a close
relationship to the fearmongering of "Russiagate."
But the impeachment failed.
Trump was acquitted in the Senate on
February 5, 2020, and continued in office.
Nalapat continued:
"Although media reports claim that US
intelligence agencies are hostile to the just sworn-in
President,
'in actual fact most within the
middle layers (of these agencies) are supportive of his
(Trump's) views,'
...with only the politically-connected
higher levels signing on to the 1,000-day agenda now in the
process of being implemented.
The sources say that the new head of
state of the world's most powerful country,
'has an astonishing amount of
goodwill within the operational level of the
investigative and intelligence agencies'."
From Nalapat's final paragraph:
"Given the pervasive influence of
businesses dependent on China and the Middle East in
Washington, a key objective of the Shadow Men is to
ensure that the Enemy Number One slot remains with Moscow
and its allies such as Iran and not migrate to Beijing or to
Saudi Arabia.
Another is to ensure that the interests
of Wall Street and the Atlantic Alliance
continue to be given primacy in US policy.
The worry of the Shadow Men is
that a US President,
'who has yet to be house trained by
the bureaucracy the way Barack Obama was in his
very first week as President of the United States, and
who has over three decades developed strong and
consistent views on geopolitics and on economics over
decades',
...of careful cogitation may succeed in
shifting US policy away from the Wall Street-Atlanticist
embrace that has been the norm since the 1980s.
'Trillions of dollars are at stake,
so there is nothing to get surprised about that tens of
millions have been spent these past months on ensuring
that the agenda of the Wall Street-Atlanticist alliance
continues to be official US policy,' a source said,
adding that 'President Trump represents the most potent
threat to such interests in two generations.'
[iv]
On the bright side, they didn't do to Trump
what an earlier generation of Shadow Men did to John F.
Kennedy.
At least not yet...
On the other hand, we may be seeing a slow-motion assassination
attempt against Trump by Democratic prosecutors carrying out
their agenda during the run-up to the 2024 presidential
election.
This includes, of course, the second Trump
impeachment after the January 6, 2021, "riot" at the US Capitol,
the indictment of Trump by New York district attorney Alvin
Bragg, the two federal indictments by special counsel
Jack Smith, and more coming from state prosecutors in
Georgia and possibly Arizona.
Cumulative sentencing of Trump if convicted on all charges would
exceed 700 years.
Never mind that this growing
weaponization of the judicial process could eventually
destroy the rule of law in the US altogether. [v]
The Democrats' assault on Trump has coincided
with growing indications of financial corruption by President
Joe Biden in league with
his son,
Hunter, of Ukrainian
Burisma fame.
House Republicans are inching toward a
possible vote on impeachment.
On August 21, 2023, Washington, DC, attorney
Robert Barnes explained on a Duran program with
Alexander Mercouris and Alex Christoforou that,
while the charges against Trump are
without merit, it will likely be up to the Supreme Court to
sort out the question of whether an incumbent party can
utilize "lawfare" to destroy a political appointment.
But the surprising thing was that so many
voters formerly characterized as "liberal" have flipped to
become gung-ho supporters of the Democratic Party's adoption,
Word is that with the alleged appearance of a
new Covid variant,
masking and
lockdowns may resume in the
fall of 2023.
The Democrats' current alignments have historical roots.
In the 1930s, the Rockefeller
banking/industrial dynasty broke with what was then the
Morgan/Rothschild alliance with the conservative-minded
Republican Party by embracing Roosevelt's New Deal.
As recounted earlier, the Rockefeller-funded
Council on Foreign Relations (CFR)
became the primary booster of US post-World War II financial and
military hegemony.
Roosevelt and most other Democrats fully
embraced these measures. [vi]
The Rockefellers also became the dominant force behind the
liberal wing of the Republican Party, with Nelson Rockefeller
a chief advisor to Eisenhower, later becoming VP under Ford,
with his brother David the architect of global finance and chief
sponsor of Democrat Jimmy Carter.
Thus the Rockefellers controlled both parties
while also performing as the godfathers of the CIA which was
entrenched as the enforcers of the national security state.
But after Republicans Bush and Cheney implemented
the disastrous "War
on Terror," the power of the
liberal/globalist/totalitarian mind set gravitated back to the
Democratic Party via Obama, Hillary Clinton, and
now Biden.
Obviously, Trump, once the Democrats' New
York City darling, became the outlier.
Now in 2023 Trump has pledged to
destroy
the Deep State and end
the Ukraine war in
twenty-four hours by bringing Zelensky and Putin
together to negotiate.
