Crosstalk: August 16, 2018

William F. Jasper is the senior editor of the New American.  They focus on limited government, Constitutional guarantees of freedom and personal responsibility.  Our guest has researched and written extensively on foreign and domestic politics, terrorism, national security, education, immigration, constitutional issues, the culture war and the United Nations.  He's the author of 'The United Nations Exposed' and 'Global Tyranny-Step by Step:  The United Nations and the Emerging New World Order'.

Who or what is this group often described as the 'deep state'? Although there are varying opinions as to what exactly the 'deep state' is, William defined it as a '...shadowy government which does exist within our own government and beyond our government; that is, private organizations, secretive organizations and semi-secretive organizations; a whole network which has been in place for much of the past century.'

William believes this effort has gradually overtaken and gained control over government agencies, the executive branch, much of the legislative and judicial branches, many major corporations, financial and academic institutions. It's a governing elite that's been subverting the checks and balances of our government and rule of law for many decades. He also believes this is why we see freedom disappearing, our economy imploding and why our government responds less and less to the will of the people and the rule of law.

The deep state calls their plan for remaking the planet the 'new world order'. The goal is to transform the world into their own image. This is to be done without any input from others. This involves being willing to collaborate with totalitarian powers such as China and Russia.

Is there a link between the 'deep state' and the Democratic Socialists of America? William feels there is. The DSA includes many members of Congress, and congressional hopefuls, the most notable being Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who recently defeated a left-wing opponent in New York. They want to push the Democratic party even more to the left toward Bernie Sanders territory and beyond.

William went on to note that deep state operatives exist within the Democratic party. These include Hillary Clinton and Dianne Feinstein. These individuals are closely tied to, as well as being members of the Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission and other globalist groups. He explained how this all works in coordinated fashion so that what was once considered 'left' is to be eventually considered 'center'.

William believes that the ultra-left is playing their hand a bit too strongly and this isn't going over well with the average Democrat voter. In addition, the only reason they've made it as far as they have is because of substantial financing, most notably from the George Soros network and numerous foundations.

This broadcast looked at much more including doing away with I.C.E., eliminating borders, phone response from listeners and more.

Finally, William encouraged listeners to contact their congressmen to support H.R. 193, the American Sovereignty Restoration Act. Call 202-456-1111 (White House number to the president), 202-225-3121 (House members) or 202-224-3121 (Senate members).
