Fifty-one years ago, a bunch of influential men got together to decide how to manage American democracy in the aftermath of the 1960s protest movements.(1)

​

Their policy conclusions—the Project 2025 of its day—draw a straight line to the real politics that we have in America right now

​

•   A woefully undereducated populace

•   A citizenry that truly believes its government doesn’t care about them

•   A citizenry that knows its government doesn’t believe in equality

•   A citizenry that knows its government doesn’t even believe in democracy!

•   A citizenry, much of whom feel lost and unfulfilled

​

for these are the policy choices they made for us.

​

And who are these people who decided THIS would be the foundational base for WE THE PEOPLE’s relationship with their government?, you might ask…

 

THE TRILATERAL COMMISSION

​

Read for yourself what they decided for us.  And why.

​

We need to know.

We need to know how

“It’s not Democrat vs. Republican, but

Regular People vs. the Top 1%”

plays out—because THAT’S our real politics.

​

Pay special attention to how they THINK.

​

​

And then…

We must recalibrate OUR thinking in response.
