Charitable Devils: Philanthropy and the Deep State
How the deep political establishment utilize tax-exempt foundations to subvert America
The international deep political establishment is not a single cohesive entity but a massive network with many moving parts, some of them operating in full view of the public while others move below the surface, undetected.
It is not wholly American, though it has made this once great nation its primary host. Like the Cordyceps fungi, the transnational, criminal ruling class has infected the very minds of this nation and spread its crippling ideologies to many other nations in the process.
Former New York mayor John F. Hylan accurately described what he called an “invisible government” back in 1922, when he claimed:
"The real menace of our republic is this invisible government which, like a giant octopus....At the head of this octopus are the Rockefeller—Standard Oil interests and a small group of powerful banking houses generally referred to as the international bankers [who] virtually run the U.S. government for their own selfish purposes.”[#]
Hylan’s depiction of the invisible government as an octopus is still relevant today, more than 100 years later, though the players and institutions have changed with the times.
In Hylan's era, Standard Oil played a significant role, and the influence of the Rockefellers and their Foundation is still evident today. However, in contemporary times, the leading globalist think tanks, such as the Council on Foreign Relations, the Bilderbergs, the Trilateral Commission, and the World Economic Forum, dominate the scene.
But the head only serves to house the brain, it is the nervous system and the extremities, or tentacles, of the octopus that facilitate the will of the head, and in the case of the Deep State, those tentacles are a tightly woven network of tax-exempt foundations, charities and nonprofits.
Foundations and non-profit organizations play a significant role in the US economy. The IRS estimates that 1.97 million nonprofits were active in the United States in 2022, of which 1.48 million were 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organizations.
Typically, the terms "charity" and “nonprofit” conjure up thoughts of generosity and selflessness. Despite their outward appearance of noble goals and self-proclaimed philanthropic benevolence, many of these organizations exist solely to facilitate the dictates and agendas of the "invisible government."
As we’ll show, this was arguably always the hidden intention behind the creation of the Tax-Exempt status.
History of Tax-exemption
The first foundation in America was created in 1865 by the legendary financier George Peabody.
Peabody is something of a legend among the financial elite; he was an associate of Baron Nathan Mayer Rothschild, a business partner to Junius Spencer Morgan, and is widely recognized as the father of modern philanthropy. (#,#)
Men like Andrew Carnegie, John D. Rockefeller, and Johns Hopkins later emulated the structure that George Peabody first established.. Peabody set up the first large-scale American foundation, the Peabody Educational Fund, endowing it with $1 million in government bonds. In four years, the fund would more than triple the investment. (#)
As with the foundations of today, the Fund purported to have noble intentions, namely the education of recently freed black slaves, but this was only a pretext to gain an economic and political foothold in the southern states.
It became what most major foundations become: an incredibly powerful financial tool with considerable international connections. Some of the most powerful men in America, including future U.S. Presidents Gen. Ulysses Grant, Grover Cleveland, William McKinley, and Theodore Roosevelt, would compose its board of directors. [#]
The model was so wildly successful that other powerful and ambitious men would expand upon it in the early 1900s.
The two most notable early foundations were the Carnegie Endowment and the Rockefeller Foundation, both of which became tax-exempt bastions for operatives of the invisible government and still exert considerable influence in the world to this day.
These foundations were utilized to create and implement government policy through their staff members, grant recipients and fellows, who would often occupy key positions in the executive, legislative and judiciary departments.
For example, the Carnegie Endowment today boasts that it has a network of more than 150 “experts” who have “served in nearly every administration since the endowment’s founding.” (#)
The template created by these early tycoons has been utilized by powerful men ever since, from Henry Ford to Bill Gates.
The importance of the nonprofit in the Deep State’s machinations cannot be overstated.
For most of the 20th century, the sinister and monolithic Council on Foreign Relations was at the heart of the pervasive web of former and current nonprofits connecting CFR members and initiatives to all corners of modern society.
Some of these organizations include:
The United States Agency of International Development (USAID who work in tandem with Monsanto to spread the use of GMO crops and Glyphosate pesticides)
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) Who are currently involved in assisting the modern censorship machine
Race Forward (Applied Research Center) an organization promoting identity politics throughout government and academia.
American Press Institute a corporate media advocacy group.
The Anti-Defamation League, who viciously attacks anyone critical of Israel
The Aspen Institute, a social engineering think tank that has steered public thinking for decades, and is currently engaged in promoting critical race theory.
The Environmental Defense Fund, a foundation currently promoting climate change initiatives.
The storied and nefarious Fabian Society, a subversive socialist movement.
Other notable CFR-connected foundations include:
The Foundation for National Progress, German Marshall Fund, Hudson Institute, International Institute for Strategic Studies, Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, Milner Group, Mont Pelerin Society, National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, National Council of Churches, New World Foundation, RAND Corporation, Stanford Research Institute, Tavistock Institute of Human Relations, Union of Concerned Scientists, International Red Cross, and the YMCA. (#) (#)
These are just a small sample of the myriad “charitable” organizations which, when working towards the same ends, exercise more control over our society than even the federal government itself.
Understanding the think tank / foundation relationship in the context of this monolithic, international network is essential.
Working in tandem with the Council on Foreign Relations is a more public-facing milieu of the ruling class in modern times: the World Economic Forum.
The Forum is a symposium that attracts individuals from all sectors; it’s where the heads of banking, tech, health, energy, communications, print and advertising all convene each year to strategize. Their aim? To roll out a more “sophisticated” technologically advanced model of society, what forum founder Klaus Schwab has called the “fourth industrial revolution.”
But the Forum cannot affect these changes itself, it is only a venue for discussion and planning. In order to prepare society for these changes and to shield their narratives, both the Council and the Forum enlist the aid of their sprawling web of Tax-exempt foundations and NGOs, all with different areas of focus.
One of the most crucial of these areas is a burgeoning industry that’s been dubbed the Censorship Industrial Complex.
This “industry” could be seen as the narrative control arm of the network, deploying and shielding the messaging associated with their various narratives by smearing those who dissent publicly and by policing journalism.
Among the countless 501(c)(3) organizations dedicated to this function are:
These organizations might seem to be operating separately, but they all serve as watchdogs ready to pounce on any journalist or outlet who dissents from the orthodoxy of the deep political establishment.
And they are all funded by the same corporations and foundations: the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Fannie Mae Foundation, the Carnegie Corporation, the Boeing Company, the Coca Cola Company, the National Endowment for Democracy, the World Bank, and the Open Society Foundation.
Classic Examples
BROOKINGS
Among the premier globalist foundations of the 20th century was one of the most prominent and well-funded think tanks in the world, the Brookings Institute.
Brookings grew out of the Institution for Government Research, "the first private organization devoted to analyzing public policy issues at the national level." [#]
The institute has had its fingers in every major endeavor pursued by the Western political establishment; everything from war to Geoengineering (CLIP) to the coordinated take down of Donald Trump.
Brookings board of trustees has included a who’s who of CFR members and corporate leaders (#) and has been one of many powerful think tanks assisting the spread of Western hegemony alongside the intelligence community and the Military Industrial Complex. In 2009, they published what was essentially a blueprint for overthrowing Iran called “Which Path to Persia,” which has proven quite prescient.
Hudson Institute
Another institution devoted to Western military conquest is the Hudson Institute. The Institute was founded by Herman Kahn and his compatriots at the notorious RAND Corporation, a pillar of the Military Industrial Complex that was created from a merging of corporate and state sectors during WWII.
Khan was a friend of Henry Kissinger, a mentor of Klaus Schwab and the progenitor of the doctrine of Mutually Assured Destruction.
Hudson’s funders today include Monsanto, Pfizer, General Atomics, Fannie Mae, and the Lilly Endowment. (#)
The Reece Committee
In the mid 1900s, the growing power and influence of this network of foundations was unknown to the average citizen, but there were those in government, namely B. Carroll Reece and Norman Dodd, who recognized the potential danger of this burgeoning system.
This concern led to the creation of the Reece Committee.
The Committee was an investigative group in the United States House of Representatives created to probe the activities of tax-exempt organizations for potential subversion.
The U.S. House voted in late July 1953 to approve the creation of the special committee. Among those who opposed its creation was CFR member and future president Gerald Ford. (#)
The concern was that the banker-run network of Tax-Exempt foundations and nonprofits did not exist for charitable purposes, but rather to subversively steer and manipulate the population along with the levers of power in Western society.
These organizations, as far back as 100 years ago, were involved in paving the way for the debasement of culture we see today which has coincided with the rise of a liberal world order.
Among the many findings and areas of interest turned up by the investigation was the funding by the Rockefeller Foundation of Nazi collaborator and father of the sexual revolution Alfred Kinsey, who was documented to have paid pedophiles to rape children. [#,#,#]
During the investigations, Norman Dodd was called to meet Ford Foundation administrator Rowan Gaither, who claimed:
“[...] all of us that have a hand in the making of policies here have experiences either with the OSS during the war or the European Economic Administration after the war… we are here operating in response to similar directives the substance of which, that, we shall use our grant-making power, so to alter life in the United States, that it can be comfortably merged with the Soviet Union.”
The Reece Committee was butting up against some of the most powerful forces in the American political establishment, and naturally it would face both opposition and obstruction.
Establishment Republicans smeared the investigations as “anti-Semetic.” Jacob K. Javits, a liberal Republican who voted against the resolution that established the Reece Committee, went so far as to introduce his own resolution that would establish a separate committee to investigate the Reece Committee.
And there was also trouble from within.
Committeeman Wayne Hayes, an establishment Democrat from the state of Ohio, was installed by House Minority Leader Sam Rayburn—who also voted against the Committee—to sabotage the hearings by creating a contentious scene and even exploiting the fact that Reece, the committee’s namesake, was arrested for homosexual acts in a public bathroom in the 1920s, the matter being a secret long kept confined to Capitol Hill (#,#)
A fear of public exposure of the arrest made it impossible to reign in Hays and eventually caused Reece to halt the hearings altogether.
Committee Findings
The committee’s report was released in December of 1954, it was agreed to based on party lines with Hays refusing to sign. (#)
The committee concluded that the major American foundations:
“...have actively supported attacks upon our social and government system and financed the promotion of socialism and collectivist ideas.” (#,#)
The committee discovered that the Carnegie Foundation had attempted to use war as a tool for efficient population control in the United States. (#) It also found that the Carnegie Foundation sought to infiltrate the United States State Department to subvert American society towards globalist ideologies.
The Reece Committee and the Dodd Report, despite their electric findings, were overshadowed by the media spectacle regarding the censure of Joseph McCarthy.
Though he never dared mention the Council on Foreign Relations by name, McCarthy had denounced many of its members. It is believed that the unrelenting attacks on McCarthy at this time were provoked by a fear that he might publicly connect the dots from the findings of the Reece Committee and Dodd Report to the CFR.
The thorough demonization and character assassination of McCarthy had their intended effect; no further congressional efforts or investigations into the funding of subversive organizations has taken place in three quarters of a century since.
The number of foundations and the magnitude of their subversive grant-making have increased significantly since that time.
One of the most prominent modern illustrations of this subversive process in action is billionaire magnate George Soros and his Open Society Foundations network. Any sincere effort to expose him or his fellow billionaire subversives must be prepared for the ruthless assault that has befallen all those who have attempted this in the past. [clip]
The subversion of this nation is near complete, but it is far from inevitable. With the right leadership in Washington, this scourge could be easily dealt with.
If you remove their tax-exemption and cut off the endless spigot of funding, these organizations would become effectively neutered.
The problem is that the tendrils of this monstrous system are deeply embedded in all branches of the federal government, with many individuals working in government today having risen to their station with the help of a grant or fellowship from one or many of the organizations mentioned.
Until such time as our government is willing to finish where the Reece Committee left off, the network of Tax-Exempt foundations will continue to facilitate the will of the globalist think tanks, and America will continue to suffer.
Thanks, Ryan, great work. Getting this all together and putting it out not only shows us the vastness of the peril, but the names/faces and designs of this under-recognized threat to our democracy.
All Corporations are the problem, NGO's and tax exempt 503 C's are at the top of the list.... We need to eliminate the Corporation "The United States" Return to the constitution pre 1871 and operate from the Declaration of Independence.... That is the route to true freedom.... Peace...
