Hello everyone,
When I was in the process of making people aware of what I was doing, which is publishing top secret history, I called up the Rainbow Coalition to tell Jesse Jackson. His aide told me that he is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. She obviously didn't realize that I know just what that organization really is or she would likely have not told me that information.
The Council on Foreign Relations is an organization that is determined to destroy the United States of America.
Just thought you ought to know that.
Peace,
Arlene Johnson
