“Political parties exist to secure responsible government and to execute the will of the people. From these great tasks both of the old parties have turned aside. Instead of instruments to promote the general welfare, they have become the tools of corrupt interests which use them impartially to serve their selfish purposes. Behind the ostensible government sits enthroned an invisible government, owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people.”
Theodore Roosevelt, Aug 1912
“However [political parties] may now and then answer popular ends, they are likely in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion.”
― George Washington
The United States is a “Corporate Indenture” to the “City of London”.
The English-based, European, Criminal (as they have Counterfeit American Securities and Insurance, to say nothing of “Currency”), Central Banking Cartel is ripe for repudiation and exploitation.
The Murderous Filth from Europe have made a personal playground, based on extortion, for themselves, while posing as Aristocracy and Nobility.
Our Fathers knew what to do with them and We The People must renounce them, take what We like of their Assets and thereby regain our Birthright.
“Democrat”? “Republican”? … Please… How ’bout: bought and paid for Stooge that has sold its soul to prop phony Royalty.
That use “of instruments to promote the general welfare” thing has lead to every government over-reach since 1776. Special interest “general welfare”, ethnic group “general welfare”, crony capitalist “general welfare”, and as a basis for all the rest, politician and bureaucrat “general welfare”.
“There is no virtue in compulsory government charity, and there is no virtue in advocating it. A politician who portrays himself as caring and sensitive because he wants to expand the government’s charitable programs is merely saying that he is willing to do good with other people’s money. Well, who isn’t? And a voter who takes pride in supporting such programs is telling us that he will do good with his own money — if a gun is held to his head”.

T.R. was a mixed bag of good and bad; but he was right on that one.
“”Behind the ostensible government sits enthroned an invisible government, owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people.”” Did he know of the Deep State out of Jeckle Island back then….or was he a part of it?
