Author and activist Casey Michel joins me to discuss a lucrative and sprawling cottage industry subsidized by foreign countries that is actively undermining American democracy.
This is such an important podcast. You bring critical information into focus with deep background and discussion of current events. I become more and more outraged as I listen day after day, but I would rather be outraged and know than be blissfully ignorant. I cannot counter evil if I do not know where it lives. Foreign agents and those who sell us out not even for ideology but just for filthy lucre are incomprehensible to me. Let them live under the regimes they support for six months. Kim Philby was welcomed as a hero by Moscow, but Communism, if he ever really believed in it, did not measure up. Like the MAGA fools who admire The Moscow subway stations. I bet the shock workers just loved building them. And of course they double as bomb shelter having been dug very deep for that purpose. Putin is extending invitations to immigrant wannabes who will say how horrible the U.S. is when compared with Russia. It takes every ounce of will I have not to call it the Soviet Union. It is certainly headed that way.
I think Bob Melendez and others who provide help, particularly any sort of military aid are guilty of treason. It is one crime that may still deserve the death penalty. They are jeopardizing the lives of an untold number of US citizens.
What about Israel? We have $100 million of MAGA zionist money on our (mostly Democrat) elections, israeli bot farms pushing fake news and much more... That doesn't count at all?
And he was with the Hudson Institute. So I want to know more about the author and who he is funded by before I listen to him. i have his book on American Kleptocracy (library copy) and am not sure I want to spend the time reading it until I know who he is working for. Don't tell me he's independent. He's not. His focus looks very biased.
It takes good people, not control freaks and power seekers, to make democracy work. Clearly we now lack enough of the former and have too many of the latter. And everything's for sale in the US, especially souls.
Very insightful topic, will definitelybuy the book. I live in Canada and just checked to see if we have something similar like FARA, but looks like no. Canada doesn't have a foreign agent registry...

Once again, thank you for your efforts.

Certainly counts. Numerous examples, including UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar. But just an amuse bouche to the convo, sir :)
Why didn't you talk about AIPAC?

I can't find anything online of Michel addressing the Zionist Lobby in the US. WTF?
Because they OWN our government and media
Donald Trump is the top foreign operative
