Document uncovers details of a planned coup in the USA in 1933 by right-wing American
The coup was aimed at toppling President Franklin D Roosevelt with the help of half-a-million war veterans. The plotters, who were alleged to involve some of the most famous families in America, (owners of Heinz, Birds Eye, Goodtea, Maxwell Hse & George Bush’s Grandfather, Prescott) believed that their country should adopt the policies of Hitler and Mussolini to beat the great depression.
Mike Thomson investigates why so little is known about this biggest ever peacetime threat to American democracy.

Frightenly familiar.
Namiste,
Because it would make the present president look bad if the American population knew that his grandfather believed that this country should adopt the policies of Hitler and Mussolini to beat the great depression. It would show that his fathers father believed in a Stalinist society run by only a a few was one of the biggest threats to American true Democracy….
Namiste my friend’s peace,
William
