Committees of Tyranny

Throughout history puppet dictators and their controllers — the global banking and corporate elite — have used small committees to impose tyranny while circumventing the popular will of the people. The newly created Super Congress parallels Hitler’s enabling law, the Federal Reserve banking cartel, and Soviet Politburo.

A recent example is the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction also known as the Super Congress or Council of 13, which was created by the Budget Control Act of 2011 on August 2, 2011. The act was intended to prevent the U.S. government from defaulting on the imaginary national debt owed to banksters that created Federal Reserve Notes out of nothing and loaned them to the government at interest, enslaving taxpayers with the national debt.

The Committee will consist of twelve members of Congress, six from the “House of Representatives” and six from the Senate, with Obama being the 13th member. Three members have been appointed by the Speaker and Minority Leader of the House and the Majority and Minority Leaders of the Senate. Two of the members are designated as co-chairs, one each by the Senate Majority Leader and by the House Speaker. According to the Los Angeles Times, the “most important players” in the process will be the four leaders selecting the twelve committee members.

On August 9th, Harry Reid, the Senate Majority Leader, announced the Senate’s Democratic members of the committee Speaker John Boehner, and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell announced the Republican appointments to the committee from both houses on August 10, 2011. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi announced her choices the following day. All of the above are globalist stooges; true opponents to the debt increase were barred from the Committee.

The Budget Control Act increased the debt ceiling by $400 billion in August 2011, and required the federal government to make $917 billion in spending cuts over a ten-year period as a first installment. The Committee will then have the power to recommend at least $1.5 trillion in additional deficit reduction steps to happen over a ten–year period. Further spending cuts, including tax or revenue increases, tax reforms, and reforms (benefit reductions) to entitlement programs like Medicare and Social Security will likely be recommended.

The committee’s recommendations would then be put to a vote by Congress in a simple up or down vote, without any amendments or House “majority of the majority” blocks or Senate filibusters possible. In other words, Congress has delegated its power over the country’s finances to the 13-member Super Congress

LaRouche compares the Super Congress to Hitler’s enabling law:

Under the influence of a terror campaign by Obama and his British and Wall Street backers, a majority of the US House of Representative signed off on a Hitler coup against the U.S. Constitution. Under this coup, the Congress will, as a first step, no longer have the power to decide on matters of spending—a specific violation of Section 1 of the nation’s governing document. And that’s just the beginning…The specific measure which will eliminate the power of the Legislative Branch, is called by Obama the ‘Super-Congress.’

The Obama Super Congress measure directly mirrors the Hitler Enabling Law of March 1933, by which the German Reichstag ‘democratically’ voted to give Hitler emergency powers by passing the ‘Law for Removing the Distress of People and Reich,’ which gave Hitler the right to govern on his own, and in contravention to the Constitution, without consulting the parliament for a period of four years.

Indeed, the Super Congress is fascist to its core. Raw Story reported that the twelve Super Congress members,

got nearly $64.5 million from special interests groups over the past decade, with legal firms donating about $31.5 million and Wall Street firms donating about $11.2 million. Of that $11.2 million, Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, Bank of America and JPMorgan Chase donated approximately $2 million combined.

Microsoft also donated $810,100. All of these corporations sponsor the Council on Foreign Relations and should be boycotted, as should the Super Congress members who are clearly globalist servants.

The Super Congress should also remind you of when Congress enacted the Federal Reserve Act in 1913, delegating to private bankers congressional power to regulate the economy, coin money, and regulate the value thereof. Since 1913, the dollar has lost over 95% of its value. Additionally, former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan brags that the private Federal Reserve is above the law and has no issue destroying the little remaining value of the dollar. Additionally, the private Fed is great at making its friends wealthy through low- or no-interest loans. From 2007-2010, it gave the largest banks, including Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, and Bank of America, 16.1 Trillion dollars; that’s more than a year of U.S. Gross Domestic Product. Of course, the private Fed issues debt-based fiat currency (money as debt) so there is never enough credit in circulation to pay back all the principal plus interest on the loans outstanding, which is why the concept of bankruptcy is built into the system. As Proverbs tells us, the borrower is servant to the lender.

Likewise, the Super Congress can be compared to the Politburo (Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union), which functioned as the central policy making and governing body of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. The Politburo was a self-perpetuating body that served as the executive branch of the Soviet Union, and its decisions de facto had the force of law. It oversaw the operations of the Committee and made all major policy decisions, which it then passed down through the Central Committee, the Supreme Soviet and the Party Congress. Its control extended from the Party and into government because Party personnel held all key government posts, and party discipline therefore ensured that Politburo policy was implemented by all government organizations.

Russia’s the Eighth Party Congress in 1919 established what would later become the true center of political power in the Soviet Union. It ordered the Central Committee to appoint a five-member Politburo to decide on questions too urgent to await full Central Committee deliberation. The original members of the Politburo were Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotsky, Joseph Stalin, Lev Kamenev and Nikolai Krestinsky. Although, in theory, the Politburo was elected by the Central Committee, in practice, the leading members of the Politburo and, of course, Lenin, were highly influential in determining the body’s composition.

Freedom loving Americans should also be weary of the Super Congress when it is considered with Obama’s Council of Governors, established by executive order. The order, signed on January 11, 2010, further diminishes the sovereignty of the states and builds on a framework for possible martial law. The executive order was completely ignored by the corporate media. Fundamentally, the order states that the Pentagon and Homeland Security will give hand-picked state governors their marching orders under the guise of “synchronization and integration of State and Federal military activities in the United States,” a direct violation of Posse Comitatus.

In conclusion, political power has been further centralized. Congress has once again sold the American people down the river by relinquishing its power to regulate the economy to Obama and his Super Congress. The Super Congress is composed of globalist stooges who will further devalue the U.S. dollar, increase taxes, and cut earned benefits to recipients of Social Security and Medicare. The Super Congress reeks of Hitler’s enabling law and the Soviet Politburo, as the once-free Unites States descends into a centrally planned totalitarian gulag.

It is up to you to wake up your friends and family now by sharing important stories from the alternative media with them. Evil only succeeds when good men and women do nothing to stop it.
