Synopsis

The Invisible Government discusses The Council on Foreign Relations founded by Edward Mandel House and others who wanted to bring Socialism as defined by Marx into this country. Written in 1962 Smoot begins by saying, "Communists in government during World War II formulated major policies which the Truman administration followed; but when the known communists were gone, the policies continued, under Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson. The unseen _they_ who took control of government during World War II still control it. Their tentacles of power are wrapped around levers of political control in Washington; reach into schools, big unions, colleges, churches, civic organizations; dominate communications; have a grip on the prestige and money of big corporations." Dan Smoot believes the CFR is anti-American, pro-socialists, and works with organizations and individuals hostile to our form of government. He lists current members of the CFR as Dan Rather, Tom Browkaw, Charlene Hunter Gault, and many others

About this title

About the Author:

Dan Smoot (1913-2003) was an FBI agent and a conservative political activist. From the 1950s to 1971 , he published The Dan Smoot Report, which chronicled alleged communist infiltration in various sectors of American government and society. In 1970 , he opposed the selection of a future U.S. president, George Herbert Walker Bush, as the Republican nominee for the U.S. Senate from Texas. He claimed that Bush's political philosophy was little different from the Democrats that he sought to oppose. Bush lost the Senate election that year to popular Democrat Lloyd M. Bentsen, Jr. In 1972 , Smoot opposed the reelection of Richard M. Nixon and served as campaign manager for American Independent Party presidential candidate John G. Schmitz of California.
