28. Daniel Hopsicker: Control the Drugs, Control the Country

Daniel Hopsicker (investigative reporter and filmmaker) and publisher Kris Millegan discuss Daniel’s upcoming book (“Gangster Planet”) and drugs all over the world.

Kris: The secret societies and whatnot don’t have the power they once had.  The work by people like you, and the internet, have made the secret societies not so secret anymore.

Daniel: Steve Bannon in FIRE AND FURY had most cogent explanation of Russiagate, because he was directly involved.  Bannon told Michael Wolff, “This leads right to money-laundering.  Right to the Russians.”  Right to Bannon himself and Donald Trump!

Kris: Donald was a criminal who didn’t think he was going to win.  He was easy for the Russians to use.  On January 6th, they had useful idiots there to do that, but you had military teams running inside the Capitol.

Daniel: When you read, “This cartel’s up, this cartel’s down,” it’s all hooey.  There’s only one cartel.

Kris: Like my daddy told me, Vietnam War is about drugs – there’s these secret societies behind it all, and communism’s all a sham, it’s all a big game.  And when you look at the Kennedy assassination and the low men on the totem pole are Johnson and Hoover, if you’re at the top, they’re so blackmailable, they’re in your pocket.

Daniel: Some hominids have figured out, controlling the drug trade makes you a lot of money.  Will that be different a thousand years from now?  This is the biggest slush fund the world has ever seen.  Everybody does drugs.

Kris: When they’re illegal, the control is in the shadows.  When they’re legal, we have a much better world.  This business is hidden in plain sight.  And it’s so huge.

Daniel: How do you hide a $350 billion dollar a year industry from a government that can read the make of your golf ball from outer space?  In every country on this planet (generalizing, a little) with a significant drug market, locally, the people that control that market are the same people that control the country.  The deep state goes back to Turkey, where a general, a drug trafficker, and the head of a party got busted – on the same road Alexander the Great walked on his way south, the highway that’s been there for thousands of years.  More and more states and municipalities are using verifiable paper ballots.  Instead of 25 percent democracy we’re up to forty, forty-five percent.
