Synopsis:

What if the real power in America wasn’t where you thought it was?

In The Invisible Government, former FBI agent and political commentator Dan Smoot exposes what he believed to be a hidden network of influence operating behind the scenes in U.S. politics. Originally published in 1962, this controversial and thought-provoking book warns of unelected elites, secretive organizations, and globalist agendas shaping domestic and foreign policy.

Smoot focuses particularly on the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) and its alleged role in manipulating American government, media, and academia. With meticulous research and firsthand experience, he argues that this “invisible government” poses a threat to national sovereignty, the U.S. Constitution, and the traditional values of liberty.

Whether you agree or disagree with Smoot’s conclusions, The Invisible Government remains a fascinating snapshot of Cold War-era political thought, populist skepticism, and anti-establishment concern that resonates with modern debates about power and transparency.

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.
