Today, many Americans are wondering why, even when the democrats have a tenuous hold on all three branches of government, they still cannot get anything done for the American people. While this country is supposed to be governed by majority rule, we have two out of fifty democratic Senators deciding what legislation will be passed. They do not even pretend that they are not  deep in the pockets of the corporations and wealthy donors who benefit from their votes against the majority. We also have a Senate where the minority do the same thing. 41% can vote against a bill, and they win. The answer to how this can happen is simple, but at the same time, not well understood by the voting public.

The major reason this is happening is greed. Every person has their price, and there is so much dirty money flowing into the pockets of politicians, that the billionaires and corporations who are supplying this money have a strangle hold on our government. Nothing can pass that they don’t approve of. What they mostly do not approve of, is having to pay their fair share of taxes. You may ask yourself, how can this happen, when it is all out in the open for everyone to see? The answer is, there is so much propaganda being spread throughout the nation, it creates mass confusion, and people cannot fully grasp what is happening. Have you noticed that since Biden introduced his legislation to force the very wealthy and large corporations to pay their share of taxes, the propaganda machine has lambasted him unmercifully. He has not raised the prices on anything. It is the corporations who are doing this, and calling it inflation. His approval rating has dropped 20 points during this period. Their purpose is to make the democrats lose the 2022 elections, so that the Republicans will win, thus making  sure they will not have to pay their taxes. They realize that the average American cannot determine the difference between  real news, and the subliminal lies and misrepresentations they are fed every day.

There is another little trick that they use. They violate anti-trust laws, by agreeing to  raise their prices all at one time. This happened at the time that Biden was trying to get congress to raise their taxes. Then the oil companies raise the price of gas. And this is supposed to be Biden’s fault. Then we have the slowdown in shipping. They blame this on the virus, and also Joe Biden, because he has been fighting to control the virus. The truth is, the shipping slowdown is a scam. The large corporations are holding their products in warehouses to make it appear there is a shortage, while they are about out of room to store their products. This allows them to raise prices, make it appear that somehow Biden has done something to cause this situation.That makes sense, if you are a jack-ass. This is all because the super rich know that you will buy their ruse, because you heard it on the news that the supply line is broken.

Well, let me tell you about the news. I watch CNN and MSNBC mostly, and occasionally I check out what lies they are telling on Fox News. All of these are run by huge corporations. These corporations are included in the group that Biden is trying to get to pay their fair share of taxes. CNN last year only paid three per cent of their earnings in taxes. Plus, they got over twelve billion back on the Trump tax cut for the wealthy. That is why they pretend to be all for the weak and downtrodden. While most of their commentators are pretty liberal, they manage to sneak in their jabs against the president. They say things that eventually will change your attitude about someone. It is called propaganda, or brainwashing,or mind control. This is what happened to Hillary Clinton. Think about it. If you try hard enough, I bet you can remember when you kinda liked Bill and Hillary. But slowly, your mind was changed, and you didn’t like them so much. This is how the wealthy get their way, and how we got stuck with Trump.

Another thing that they are doing right now, is bending ordinary working white men to dislike black people. These are white guys who believed in live and let live. Let the black people do their thing, and I’ll do mine. But now, all of a sudden, they are out buying shotguns, and joining the Republican party. One of the things that has caused this, is the looting and burning that occurred after the George Floyd protests. While I feel that part of that was done by white nationalists, there were blacks, mostly gang members, who were involved. The problem is,

most white people were genuinely affected by the murder of Floyd. I think that had the demonstrations not continued day after day, with the violence that occurred, most whites would have been open to legislation that would have helped end the police violence against black citizens. Instead, it ended up creating more ill will toward black people, that many white people now have. Another thing that is causing ill will toward blacks, are the commercials that everyone has noticed,but said very little about. It is the commercials run by large corporations, on networks run by huge corporations, that show almost every white woman with a black man. Now anyone with any sense knows that this is not real, since white women make up thirty five % of the nation, and black men about seven%. That would mean that every black man would have about 5 white women each. I was thinking they were just trying to get people used to the races getting together. After talking to a black friend about it, he assured me that was not their intention. He felt, and I now agree with him, that the reason for this is to further alienate white males, thus getting them to join the republican party, and assuring a GOP win in the upcoming elections. Though racism is deep in the heart of most men, including all races, it really comes to the fore when they feel someone is after their women. I have not had the opportunity to ask any black women what they think about all this. I believe they would think that this is just more mind control over white men. Now if you read this, and you get all into your little political correctness thing, then they’ve got your mind.

In this newsletter, we shall try to lay out each segment of the actions against our democracy.  Who the players are, how they are manipulating our decisions and actions, and who they are committing these acts for. We will look into the financial dealings of every member of congress to determine who every donor is, and what they want from these politicians who are supposed to be representing the American people. I’m just a white, life long liberal, who spends all my time researching this stuff, and am very afraid we are losing our democracy. With all its imperfections, I am certain that we will miss it when it is gone. These are just two of the reasons we have formed  the Citizens Against Tyranny in America, an FEC registered political committee, whose purpose is to educate American voters on the great danger to our Democracy posed by a rogue Republican party. This is a party whose congressional members, along with some democrats, are bought and paid for by huge corporations and the top 1% of wealthy Americans. This is  not to mention the Russians and other rogue nations who cannot spread their fascist tentacles around the world as long as a free America stands in their way. The average American, who is content with just going to work every day, living in a decent home, being able to educate their children, does not understand the level of greed that controls the actions of the super wealthy and evil despots around the world. It is our intention to delve into the secret workings of those who are trying to destroy our Democracy. We will find and report to the American people those who would do us harm, even as they pretend to be working for us. We will be involved in elections to let people know who is on their side. We will be recruiting volunteers to monitor polling sites to make sure voters are not being bullied by right wing thugs. Many peace loving Americans are beginning to understand that we will eventually have to stand up to these thugs if we don’t defeat them at the polls.

The reason that Americans are not comprehending the great danger our freedoms are facing, is because the conspiracy is so large, involving so many entities, that it is too much to take in. The primary reason for this attack on our democracy from within, is simply greed. The giant corporations and super wealthy families do not want to pay their taxes. They want those who labor for them to pay the taxes, while they enjoy their wealth without supporting the structure that allows them to amass and hold onto such excessive wealth. You do not gain that kind of wealth without having an unnatural lust for the power that this wealth brings. With this said, it is not against the law to amass such wealth. However, it should be against the law to not pay your fair share of taxes. The only way for it to not be against the law, is for the wealthy to control the lawmakers. This has become so pervasive in our country, that most of us just accept it as normal. Everyone knows that it is happening, but we just accept it.

One of the most obvious examples of this is two Democratic Senators. First you have Joe “smokestack joe” Manchin. He controls much of the West Virginia coal operations. He either owns or controls several large coal mining operations. His son is listed as the owner of one of them. These operations have a grim history of pollution, safety violations and death.

They are guilty of dumping poisonous waste all over the state. The reason he is against the 3.5 trillion dollar budget resolution that would aid his constituents immensely, is he profits from the destruction of the environment that we have to live in. So, since  it would cost him part of the millions he rakes in from the production of electricity from coal, he stands against any laws that seek to control his pollution. That is not to mention the millions he receives  in donations from other polluting donors. As it now stands,20% of electricity in the US is generated from coal. How is it good for the climate if the energy powering your electric car comes from burning coal. Does it not seem logical that his opposition to this bill is for his own personal self interest?

Then we have Kyrsten Sinema, the queen of Big Pharma. While she does not say what her opposition to the budget reconciliation bill is, it is apparent that the millions in donations she is soliciting from the large pharmaceutical companies is affecting her loyalties. Many of her older constituents could use a break in what they pay for drugs, even as she works to enrich herself. She has even gone to Europe to collect money to help in her work against the best interest of Americans. These are just two of the politicians in Washington who are filling their pockets with dirty money.

Until 2010, our democracy might have survived this theft by deception. In 2010 however, George Bush’s pick for Chief Justice of the Supreme Court changed everything. He made the decision that the use of unlimited, secret contributions to politicians was legal. This allowed the billionaires to funnel billions of dollars into the pockets of our Senators and Congressmen, allowing them to influence the voters in their gerrymandered districts. Thus, they were able to install lawmakers who decide who pays taxes and how much they pay. Have you noticed that after this decision, we started to see Republican lawmakers becoming more virulent in their attacks on Democrats who opposed their giveaways to the wealthy. In many cases, their behavior has become so rabidly antidemocratic, that even many Republicans are distancing themselves from this. This can only happen when they do not fear losing their seats. This is because they have become so wealthy, that losing their seat poses no threat to their income. They have set up this little thing called the legislative PAC. It allows them to control the money that they have collected from their wealthy donors, even after they leave office.

An example of this pervasive effect that unlimited dark money is having on our society, is the actions of the media. We know the effect that Fox News has on the right wing individuals who follow this outlet. But have you thought about the effect that supposed progressive stations like CNN and MSNBC have on your attitudes about government? It should be kept in mind that all large corporations go to extreme measures to avoid taxes. An example of this is CNN. Their parent company only pays about 3% of their income in taxes. Add to this the 12.7 billion dollars they got back on the Trump tax breaks to the wealthy. We are not talking about chump change here.  While it would appear that most of the content on these two cable networks is aimed at pro democratic voters, they manage to slip in subtle anti Biden opinions to sway public approval of the man who is trying to raise their taxes. Remember, these networks are owned by huge corporations, who currently pay little or no taxes. An example of how they control our attitudes is  the extreme hard line they took on the withdrawal from Afghanistan. While most military experts expressed the opinion that the withdrawal would be difficult under any circumstance, the media hammered away that the withdrawal was a boondoggle. Biden’s approval rating went down about ten points during this period. While there were many examples of these two corporations swaying progressive attitudes about the government we have voted into office, the most blatant example of this was a piece by Nic Robertson of CNN. He and a camera crew  visited the prison at Andahar. This prison had housed about five thousand Isis and Taliban fighters, who were being held by the Afghanistan government, but released in the deal that Trump made with the Taliban He was accompanied on this visit by Taliban representatives, who showed great disapproval of the prison. Obviously, he nor the Taliban had ever visited an American prison, because this prison appeared to be in much better shape than most that I have seen in the US. This appeared to be a reporter consorting with the enemy to promote negative propaganda against his own country. The most important thing he left out is that these very Taliban he was consorting with do not lock up prisoners. They kill them.

Another example of this, is the way the drone attack on a car carrying rockets to attack the Kabul airport was misreported. The first reporters on the scene showed video of a white Toyota with 5 rockets in the back seat which the drone had hit. It also showed another Toyota down the street, which had been hit by the missiles which detonated when the first Toyota was hit. It also hit an apartment building, where about a dozen civilians were killed. This was very unfortunate, but if the missiles had hit the airport, there could have been many more casualties. This incorrect reporting became so pervasive, that the White House just went along with it, deciding not to spend weeks arguing about it.

My point here is, there are many ways in which we are  propagandized to affect our attitudes about our government. There is presently an all out attack on the Biden government in order to get the electorate to put the Republicans back in power. Then, they can continue to give huge tax breaks to the wealthy. You probably feel a little uncomfortable reading this about how the wealthy are fraudulently making you pay their taxes. You are uncomfortable feeling that some of the taxes you pay should be returned to you in the form of healthcare, child care, education and other benefits that you pay for. You probably feel that it is a Socialist idea for you to benefit from the taxes you pay, instead of giving it to those who haven’t even paid taxes. Have you ever wondered why the companies do not protest having to collect your taxes for the government. Is it because they know that they will be transferring a large portion of it to their own accounts eventually?

All of this might be tolerable if we just went along with it. However, they know that the underclass will not continue to go along with this forever. That is why they are trying to set up an authoritarian  regime. They almost got it done under Donald Trump. Unfortunately, we have not heard the last of him. If the Republicans are not removed from the state legislatures that they control, they will enact election policy that will make it impossible for anyone to defeat them. This is how fascism is done. Those thugs who attacked our capital will become the brownshirts who will make it impossible for citizens to express their displeasure at what is going on. You see, every industrialized nation has a subclass of chronic malcontents, petty criminals, mentally disturbed, and ignorant, who feel at war with those who have succeeded in life. They are threatened by others, who they feel are inferior to them. They feel it is unfair that immigrants, who  through hard work are doing well in our democracy. Thus,they think there is something wrong with Democracy. These are cannon fodder for those who exploit them for their own ends. While they are a minority of the citizenry, they can be used to intimidate a peace loving majority. This is what happened in Germany when Hitler took over, after losing an election in which he only got 25% of the vote.

This facet of the all out attack on America  is just a small part of what is going on. It is too much to absorb all at once, much less write about it. So, we are going to present this information in segments. The following segments will have information on how Trumps 2016 election was rigged in the way he is accusing election officials in 2020 of doing.The very states that he is accusing of cheating, are states that he stole the election in 2016. The only reason he was unable to do it again, is because these states had thrown out the Republicans who initiated the steal ,and replaced them with Democrats. That is Wisconsin and Michigan.

You might have noticed that Trump has this idiosyncracy of accusing others of doing something that he himself has done. This is done to divert attention from himself to someone else. When I noticed that the first thing Trump said after the election was that no votes were changed to give him the victory. I knew that votes were changed. I immediately began researching the elections in the battleground states, and it was clear that republican election officials in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, had tossed out thousands of votes on the signature ruse, where an anonymous official declares that the signatures on the mail in ballots don’t match. They also disposed of whole mailbags of ballots from democratic strongholds. It is ironic that the same states where the steal occurred in 2016, are now being audited by the Republican legislature.

Also, we will outline how and why John Roberts became Chief Justice of the Supreme court. He is a key participant in the takeover of America, because his Citizens United decision has enabled the moneyed elite to pour huge amounts of money into political campaigns.  How could any reasonable person go along with the idea that money is the same as free speech. In other words, the more money you have, the more free speech you have. And it is not only the Republicans who are doing this. Vladimir Putin is actively involved in this attempt to destroy America. He knows that if he controls America, he basically controls the world. He also uses this dark money to buy off congressmen. Everyone has their price, and he is certainly able to come up with the money to meet that price. These congressmen then vote the way these people want them to. Also, how he helped George Bush steal the 2000 election. How the  dark money scheme to buy off politicians works. Who are the most crooked in the congressional delegation,and other little known facts about how we are manipulated. We will attempt to educate America  before the upcoming election.

Speaking of elections, we will follow Donald Trump as he used his Father’s money to enter the real estate business. How he graduated to dealing with organized crime which permeates the construction, real estate development, and virtually every aspect of New York business. From there it was a short leap to setting up shell businesses, of which he controls over a hundred. These businesses are used to launder Russian money, stolen by Putin and his Russian mafia cohorts from virtually every business in Russia. Selling condos in buildings he controls is his primary money laundering operation. He sells condos at exorbitant prices to Russian Oligarchs.  These are cash deals, using shell companies. This makes it impossible for regulators to follow the money trail. The same principal is how he bought up non profitable golf courses using Russian money, also used to launder money.Eventually, Putin decided to make Trump president, He knew that he had so much on Trump that he could never turn on him, as was Donald’s habit when he felt he no longer needed someone. They developed a scheme similar to the one George Bush used to get elected. Merely use the election officials in key states controlled by Republicans, to throw out absentee ballots in Democratic areas, like Milwaukee and Detroit. They could do this by just disallowing the signatures on democratic ballots, or by throwing away entire bags of ballots from these same areas. These are the same democratic areas that Trump is now accusing the election officials of  doing what he did in 2016. He would have done it again in 2020 had not the republicans in these states been voted out in 2018. In these states, they have now passed laws that will make it easy to control who gets elected.

Prior to the upcoming midterm elections, it is our intention to Identify the worst offenders in congress  and create programming that reveals their worst offenses to the public. The republicans are raking in so much dark money, we are far behind in fundraising. We need funds to combat their propaganda machines. To visit our website, go to https://catiaus.com/ .
