The Deep Corruptness of Today’s Democratic Party

10 November 2024, by Eric Zuesse. (All of my recent articles can be seen here.)

Because I am and always have been a progressive, I’ve always been strongly opposed to the post-Abraham-Lincoln Republican Party, which has always represented ONLY America’s wealthiest, against everybody else; but, as an investigative historian I have also come to recognize that ever since 25 July 1945, the Democratic Party — just like the Republican Party — is LIKEWISE representing ONLY the billionaires, who are united in placing as their #1 priority the creation and universal expansion of the U.S. empire, which started on that date and has been expanding ever since, though nowadays there is no other empire on this planet, and though the hundreds of trillions of U.S. dollars that have been spent on this imperial expansion (by means of subversions, sanctions, coups, and outright military invasions) have benefitted ONLY that richest 1% of the richest 1% of Americans, and have murdered tens of millions of people around the world and created hundreds of millions of people to become refugees (not to mention that these expenditures have come at the expense of trillions of dollars that could otherwise have gone toward increasing the health, education, social security, and general welfare, of the American public). This massive harm, by and for America’s billionaires, is the result of what is commonly called “neoconservatism,” which is the belief that the U.S. Government (which is controlled by America’s billionaires) must control all other countries. 

So, the things that I will say here against the Democratic Party are equally the case against ALSO the Republican Party: BOTH Parties are billionaire-controlled and for billionaire-benefit. Both of America’s Parties are for the billionaires (and their millions of neoconservative agents) against the public. They control the public by deceiving the public through the ‘news’-media that they control by means not only of their ownership of them but also by their OTHER corporations (profit and ‘non’-profit) advertising in them. That’s the way the billionaires — America’s actual Deep State — achieve and maintain their control.

At The Hill’s “Rising” on 14 August 2019, Krystal Ball gave the supreme documentation that in order to get and retain employment by any U.S. major ‘news’ medium, a journalist MUST be either corrupt or else stupid or else just desperate to make that much money (i.e., corrupt, like I just said).

That video OUGHT to have been headlined the way that this article is, but, perhaps because it was so explosive in its content, The Hill wanted it to attract as little attention as possible and so headlined it instead with the very routine “Krystal Ball exposes anti-Bernie media bias” (which was only the video’s opening, but that was just the opening 2 minutes of this 8-minute video, which was devoted 100% to explaining the deep corruptness of today’s Democratic Party and of its ‘news’-media. Ball’s co-host Saagar Enjeti further detailed the way in which an American ‘journalist’ is effectively coerced to either avoid reporting truths that the employers want the public not to know, or else to accept to be made available to only ‘alternative news’ audiences — who already know that the major ‘news’-media are untrustworthy because they are publicizing ONLY what their corporate masters want the public to ‘know’.

On 6 November 2024 (the day after the election), Krystal Ball posted at the progressive honest journalist Ryan Grim’s DropSiteNews, “Bernie Would Have Won”, and analyzed the election-results so as to conclude that whereas Trump’s conservative populism was viewed by the Republican Party’s megadonors as being acceptable, the Democratic Party’s megadonors viewed Bernie Sanders’s progressive populism as being deeply unacceptable and therefore they ditched his Presidential campaigns both in 2016 and in 2020. I have analyzed national polling on Sanders’s net-approval ratings throughout his time in the U.S. Senate and have many times mentioned in my articles that but for the hostility towards him by America’s billionaires, he would have easily won the Democratic Party’s primaries and the Presidency, and that the DNC just didn’t care about that clear fact. The same thing happened with RFK Jr. in 2023-2024: like Bernie, his net-approval ratings soared above any of the other Presidential candidates but the DNC ditched him, too, and so gave us, instead, first Joe Biden, and then Kamala Harris — both of whose net-approval ratings were well below zero — as were Trump’s. The billionaires WON’T ALLOW THE AMERICAN PEOPLE TO GET AS A PRESIDENT A PERSON THAT THE AMERICAN PUBLIC WANT TO BECOME THE PRESIDENT.

The problem here ISN’T the U.S. Constitution but America’s billionaires. Tinkering with the Constitution or the laws can’t solve this problem: the U.S. is a dictatorship by them, in fact; and, now that it is so, they won’t willingly let go of it. They have made that repeatedly clear.

If a person is incorruptible, that person has no chance to rise to or even near the top in American politics at the federal Government level. That’s just a fact now. And this Government has the nerve to set itself as being the model that the entire world should look up to. It proclaims that the countries it wants to conquer are ‘autocracies’ instead of, like the U.S., a ‘democracy’ — and their ‘news’-media follow that lying imperialistic line, as-if it were instead fact. This is how they ‘justify’ their supposed right to control the countries they haven’t YET conquered. It’s all lies.

PS: If you like this article, please email it to all your friends or otherwise let others know about it. None of the U.S.-and-allied ‘news’-media will likely publish it (nor link to it, since doing that might also hurt them with Google or etc.). I am not asking for money, but I am asking my readers to spread my articles far and wide, because I specialize in documenting what the Deep State is constantly hiding. This is, in fact, today’s samizdat.

Investigative historian Eric Zuesse’s latest book, AMERICA’S EMPIRE OF EVIL: Hitler’s Posthumous Victory, and Why the Social Sciences Need to Change, is about how America took over the world after World War II in order to enslave it to U.S.-and-allied billionaires. Their cartels extract the world’s wealth by control of not only their ‘news’ media but the social ‘sciences’ — duping the public.
