RFK, Jr. and Jeff Sharlet Discuss "C Street"

For decades in Washington, D.C., a secretive group known as The Family has been working behind the scenes to empower a few select politicians, and to influence the decisions that shape our country. Not only has this group operated in almost complete secrecy, but they've also skewed Christianity to the point where they believe that God wants us to take care of the rich and powerful more than the poor and hungry. Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. talks about this secret Family in Washington with Jeff Sharlet, author of the new book "C Street: The Fundamentalist Threat to American Democracy."

Great work, both Bobby and Jeff.

This is why we should listen to and get informed about things going on in this country. Thanks Bobby and Jeff for speaking out on this and to Bobby for speaking out on other things.

The family? More like the Tribe.

Incogman.net has a few things to say on the topic.

@ISamuelII What "cause of correction" ?

[JoeThePhilosopher]

The philosophy of the criminal super-rich can best be described as "cannibalism" because they're all a bunch of blood-suckers. They hate the poor, the lame, the needy, the blind, the sick, the disadvantaged and anyone else who's not a member of the country club.They won't be laughing when they're nailed to a cross.

@dgl1962 I hear ya & it is confusing but then you have to say then that JFK was a martyr for "their" purpose which I don't believe. Kennedy was assissinated by these aholes because of a speech he gave only weeks before he was murdered. He was about to expose them all. It's on U-tube; you've probably seen it. It's hard to know what to believe though; that's for sure.

The US was never meant to be a democracy. The current democracy in the US is unconstitutional! The 17th Amendment violates Marbury v Madison and thus is unconstitutional!!

Enact and google "tona2009" for a real solution to the corporate hegemony of mankind.

Restore the republic!!!

Save the US constitution, save the world.

@dgl1962 Yeah black mail can be a bitch. His brothers were far more devoted to a cause of correction like you mentioned with the cash on hand.

I forgot to mention Teddy Kennedy, he was the biggest cheerleader for open borders of the US immigration in the 1965 immigration act which in the opinion of many people (not all are "rabid racists) has led to the overall devastation in US cities.

Too many of these arrivals come as parasites that care nothing of becoming a citizen, only of sucking as much wealth as possible from it at the expense of the producers.

Ted then worked tirelessly (40 yrs) to hook these people on gov welfare.

@dgl1962 They were called "new money". Ever hear of that term? What or who was the old money? See the hidden history of America.
