“An invisible government … sets the major policies of the federal government.” With those words, Dan Smoot, a former FBI agent, indicted the Council on Foreign Relations and its web of interlocking foundations, business councils, and media allies. Drawing from membership rosters, congressional testimony, and the CFR’s own publications, Smoot documents how America’s foreign and domestic course was being steered toward world socialism under the guise of peace and progress. First issued in 1962, this 2020 edition remains a hard-hitting map of the power structure behind policy.
