This piece is a valid appraisal of where Trump stands with regard to the military industrial complex.

I'm surprised that article was even published. Every single one of the statements made are verifiable and the books mentioned are very well researched (I have copies of both). The deep state is the elephant in the room very few in the mainstream media have acknowledged, let alone mentioned.

Cheers maka! I have to say that is some of the best writing I have seen on this and must agree with our buddy trump on this - surprised it has not been pulled!

Its fringe but valid - someone else wrote a similar article about a year ago but I have not been able to find it.

Deep state is nothing new and we shouldn't be so naive as to think the game isn't well advanced

It has been proven throughout history that there is no money in peace for TPTB they prefer a perpetual state of conflict

The Man will have a major announcement later in the week. Major investment by Japan in infrastructure, Hey that's all good apparently they are not an enemy of the U.S. .
this will create 700,000 jobs for the locals.
I busted a gut laughing. This is courtesy of Next News, the media outlet all tin hat brigaders should watch. For others it is an insight into the mindset of the rednecks.
He did say that once he was in power all that money held in overseas accounts would come back. He just didn't clarify whose. Even the knob that fronts the thing had a hard time making a positive out of it !

The first part of the article is history, of which I remember well. Yes, the military Industrial complex was alive and well in the 1950’s 60’s 70’s and maybe half way through the 80’s in Reagan’s presidency.

This was when the Cold War was on, the western world was very different then. Leftists were security risks as were homosexuals. Men were men and women were women. No affirmative action, no special privilege for minorities, and a far stronger hand of the law.

“The military Industrial complex” would not have liked Reagan making peace with the Russians in 1986 and effectively ending the cold war !

“The military Industrial complex” would not have likes Obama flooding the USA with Muslims and a few terrorists !

“The military Industrial complex” would not have liked the ( honest ) Clintons setting up the Clinton Foundation, a corruption and slush fund that we do not know the depths of yet.

I could go on, but I think the “The military Industrial complex” is not what it used to be.

The individuals involved in the “enterprise” would want to survive, not be hacked to death per chance in some shopping centre by an illegal Muslim freeloader.

There is some force acting in America that does frighten Presidents, Democrat and Republican. This is obvious when the subject arises of releasing to the public the 53 year old House Assassinations Reports detailing WHO was involved in the Kennedy Assassination in 1963. Suppose to happen in 2028, but don’t hold your breath.

The last part of the Canberra Times article is leftist twaddle, due to the reference to climate change.

Yes, this has put me off my lunch !

The western world is in trouble.

When deranged people like this get to govern us ( USA, Europe, Australia etc ).

Where have all the shrewed competent, focused people gone ?

Maybe the best people we have run Banks !

The products of the education system in recent decades are not the quality that they used to be.

I watched many of these hearing where these 3 tore apart lying, incompetent, and corrupt Obama Administration officials. Mike Pompeo exposed and humiliated Hillary Clinton over the Bengazi fiasco.

While the looney left have blamed miscounted votes, racist electoral colledge participants, the Russian, The Martians, etc for the loss, they have missed a major reason for the loss.

It was these House hearings. Over the past year with the above three representatives displaying to all who watched the corruption and incompetence of those who were governing them and what was about to govern them ( Clinton )

The revelations were ugly and did not inspire any confidence.
Lol Hilary Clinton has to be the most investigated person on earth.

How many charges is she facing again?

Keep making stuff up though...it's fun!

So the President is now using the Whitehouse's official communications channels to complain about retailers dumping his daughters failing apparel line. Comments?

So where's the problem? There is none.

More fake news trying to conflate a non story.

When is Crooked Hillary appearing before the house oversight committee? That's the real news story.
