I wonder how many more millions of humans Henry Kissinger will send to their deaths before his 93 year old corpse is safely in the grave? He sent his the head of his organization, Paul Bremer, to Iraq in 2003 to become Governor for yet another Kissinger "success story". Billions of Dollars of cash went missing under Bremer's one year tenure and no one knows to where, while Iraq disintegrated into chaos. - nytimes.com It's quite extraordinary how Henry can use his gravelly voice to seduce naive new waves of political leaders to do his bidding. You'd think they'd bother to study his past "accomplishments" - but no, he's new each time. This time he has Trumpo as his Mini-Me. As Henry said in 1975, "Before the Freedom of Information Act, I used to say at meetings,* 'The illegal we do immediately. The unconstitutional takes a little longer'.*"

The Not-Hillary President moonofalabama.org >>>[T]he power elite can be best described as a “triangle of power,” linking the corporate, executive government, and military factions: “There is a political economy numerously linked with military order and decision. This triangle of power is now a structural fact, and it is the key to any understanding of the higher circles in America today.” The 2016 US election, like all other US elections, featured a gallery of pre-selected candidates that represented the three factions and their interests within the power elite. The 2016 US election, however, was vastly different from previous elections. As the election dragged on the power elite became bitterly divided, with the majority supporting Hilary Clinton, the candidate pre-selected by the political and corporate factions, while the military faction rallied around their choice of Donald Trump.<<<

Dear TJ, with all due respect but I am quite tired from all those armchair analysts. Every one beats his own drum, what will happen now no one really knows as the US is actually almost unpredictable. The rank and file of the administration is so far from the Donald style as Pluto is from earth, and it does not matter who he nominates, moving perception within the rank and file is a herculean task I do remember when many years ago I meet officials at the Dept. of State and DOE they told me things I did not even grasp at the time as possible policy directions - it took 5 years to materialize.
