TRUMP'S ADMINISTRATION: THE SWAMP DEEPENS

SOURCE: TONY CARTALUCCI

The so-called "alternative right" is at least posing as holding its breath over the prospects of Bush-era Neo-Conservative John Bolton being appointed as US Secretary of State. However, with the appointment of Breitbart's Steven Bannon as Chief Strategist and Senior Counselor of the incoming administration of President-elect Donald Trump, Bolton and his Neo-Conservative agenda already has a solid foot in the door.

Breitbart News exists today as a living success story of Cass Sunstein's cognitive infiltration doctrine. It infiltrated the increasingly independent and influential alternative media, and reasserted establishment talking points under right cover. The actual alternative media focuses on issues with a perspective outside of the Western "left-right" paradigm. Organizations like Breitbart News, World Net Daily (WND), and others, have ceaselessly worked to repolarize audiences increasingly seeing through politics and identifying the bipartisan control corporate-financial special interests hold over Western society.

Bolton's Breitbart Affair 

A search on Breitbart News for John Bolton's name, reveals not only an extensive archive of articles focused on the otherwise obscure, Bush-era politician, but summaries of numerous interviews Bolton gave with Breitbart News itself.

In essence, Bolton, and many other characters brought into Breitbart News' "alternative" media coverage, aim to reassert a right-leaning tinge to what is supposed to be an alternative media devoid and outside of "left-right" bias. This successful cognitive infiltration has in fact given rise to the label "alt-right," which is essentially the establishment right retrenched within the alternative media.

Breitbart articles including, "John Bolton: U.N. Set to Elect Another 'Secular Pope': Hilary Clinton Will 'Play Right into his Hands," "John Bolton: I Wouldn't Recommend Donald Trump's GOP Critics for a Republican Adminstration 'If My Life Depended on it'," and "John Bolton: 'It Would Be an Honor to be Considered For ANy Position to Serve the Country' in Trump Administration," are not only examples of this allegedly "alternative media" platform introducing and promoting an establishment figure, but includes radio interviews with John Bolton hosted by Breitbart News' and Trump's most recent appointee to his cabinet, Steven Bannon himself.

Articles like "Trump: We are Seriously Thinking about Picking John Bolton as Secretary of State," may appear to simply indicate a possibility of Bolton joining Trump's administration, but in reality, the love affair between Bolton and Breitbart News, directly involving Steven Bannon himself, signifies the ideology and interests Bolton represents are already deeply entrenched in Trump's administration and agenda.


Whether Bolton is Secretary of State or Not, Continuity of Agenda Continues...

The agenda Bolton represents is not merely based on speculation, it can be discerned from Bolton's own words in an op-ed he published this month in the New York Post under a section titled, "The Trump Doctrine."

Bolton's op-ed, titled, "Trump needs to reverse the Iran deal and assert our interests," states:

Barack Obama’s foreign-policy legacy includes reduced American global influence, dramatically underfunded military and intelligence capabilities, and rising concern among longtime allies about Washington’s understanding of international threats. A world of nuclear-weapons proliferation and growing radical Islamic terrorism are the consequences.

For the "alt-right," who temporarily flirted with the reality of "radical Islamic terrorism" being a creation of the West and its Arab allies, namely Saudi Arabia and Qatar - with Breitbart, WND, and other infiltrators' efforts - this reasserted polarizing narrative peddled by Bolton is now music to their ears.

In reality, the Obama administration simply carried on the wars started under the Bush administration, expanding some, and starting others that Bush simply ran out of time to initiate. 

US Army General Wesley Clark, in a 2007 Flora TV talk titled, "A Time to Lead," would reveal this singular agenda by relating a conversation he had as far back as 1991 with then US Under Secretary of Defence for Policy, Paul Wolfowitz, by stating (our emphasis):

I said Mr. Secretary you must be pretty happy with the performance of the troops in Desert Storm. And he said, well yeah, he said but but not really, he said because the truth is we should have gotten rid of Saddam Hussein and we didn't. And this was just after the Shia uprising in March of 91' which we had provoked and then we kept our troops on the side lines and didn't intervene. And he said, but one thing we did learn, he said, we learned that we can use our military in the region in the Middle East and the Soviets wont stop us. He said, and we have got about five or ten years to clean up those all Soviet client regimes; Syria, Iran, Iraq, - before the next great super power comes on to challenge us. 

From 1991 onward, the goal of US intervention across the planet has been to establish deeply-entrenched global hegemony before another rising world power could balance American geopolitical domination.

Bolton himself, in his op-ed reaffirms his own commitment to confronting other rising powers, stating: 

...it is critical the incoming Trump administration also fashion strategies to deal with longer-term issues like protecting America’s constitutional system from the advocates of global governance and the realities of international competition from the likes of China and Russia.

What is perhaps most ironic and telling of all of just how manipulative and disingenuous both Bolton and outlets like Breitbart News are, they have repeatedly and desperately deferred to the use of Islamophobia to polarize and reassert pro-war establishment narratives among the "alt-right."
