Kevin Howard drops by again for a lively discussion about how wealth has co-opted our media and government. He references the Powell Memorandum, written in 1971, which was a blueprint for persuading the masses to support corporate takeover. This effort greatly influenced the infamous “Citizens United” Supreme Court ruling of 2010, which elevated corporate influence over individuals by allowing them to dominate large media companies and shape popular opinion, thereby vastly increasing their sway over U.S. policy.
Numerous examples are cited illustrating how the Powell Memorandum has made the United States vulnerable to many ills, including the 9/11 terrorist attack, and contributed to the conflict in Ukraine. Kevin explains how people following the tenets of the memorandum have led to significant geopolitical consequences, challenging the mainstream narratives often presented to the public.
Join us for an inspiring and thought-provoking hour that we hope will encourage you to question everything you’re being told about America.
