A friend of mine served as Aide-de-Camp to three star General Andrew Goodpaster who was Superintendent at West Point in the early 1980’s. Goodpaster had been personal assistant to Eisenhower in the last few years of his Administration and helped Eisenhower on his Farewell Address.
Goodpaster stated to my friend that Eisenhower originally wanted to warn the public of the military-industrial-CONGRESSIONAL complex. However, Eisenhower cut out that part of his speech because he felt that an expose of Congressional corruption would prevent Kennedy from being able to use Congress to control or throttle back the military-industrial corruption.
It is true history that should be reported and well-known, but isn’t !!
With the advent of allowing Mi5/6 to establish the CIA and the U.N. on U.S. soil; in retrospect, the current existential threat to our Constitution, Christian Western Culture, basic way of life really shouldn't be a surprise.
One little word strategically placed, CONGRESSIONAL, changes the whole tone and topography of Eisenhower's statement. Never heard this little piece of 'hidden history' before now. Thank-you for sharing Eisenhower's truth at this moment in history.
The sharing doesn't change WHAT MUST CERTAINLY BE DONE to end this treasonous murder of The Constitution or the certain accountability 'The People' must enact upon the arrogant, psycho/sociopathic parasites acting as CAPO'S for the Intl Central Banker Family Mafia.
THE PROSTITUTE POLITICIANS AND CORRUPT DEEP STATE MINIONS HAVE ALLOWED THE U.S. TO BE USED AS THEIR PIT BULLY TO ATTACK THE WORLD AND IT'S BEEN ENDLESSLY USED FOR THEM TO HIDE BEHIND as the British were before for centuries and that includes being the real enemy of The American Revolution.
ROTHSCHILD'S CENTRAL BANKER FAMILY MAFIA is now turning to the CCP as their USED PIT BULLY TO IMPLEMENT DEPOPULATION AND SLAVERY ONTO THE PLANET AND TO HIDE BEHIND? Do believe it is high time for this evil, already dug-in who has stolen so much ground, to be eradicated from the planet once and for all time.
I've long been a fan of Eisenhower's farewell speech and the man himself. He was probably the last President that was not captured by the credentialed elite he so accurately described. In many ways, the end of his administration was the beginning of the end for the age of Enlightenment.
1952 was the last real election. Stevenson promised to keep permanent war going. Ike promised to end it. Ike fulfilled his promise, pulling out of Korea and resisting Deepstate's pressure to enter Vietnam. Since then, no president has kept a promise, and in recent decades they aren't even bothering to make promises.
He is the first President in generations to not start any new wars. He successfully attacked and destroyed ISIS and pulled our troops from Eye-Wreck (Iraq). He set up a plan to remove us from Absurdistan but then Pedo Joe The Hair Sniffer botched it like he does everything he touches…..
Well written Sir! I was ten when Ike left office and remember him as pictured here. This is perhaps the first time in fifty plus years that I’ve read the complete transcript of what became the Military Industrial Complex speech in my mind and so many others but had forgotten his reference to the Scientific Technical Complex. Thanks for the reminder.
It has always made me wonder how he was able to figure out so early the nature of the threat to the ideals of America as it was founded and to describe said threat so very well in such a prescient fashion while it took my stint in Army military 😂intelligence🤣 during the closing years of the Vietnam war for me to understand. I’ve never recovered my faith in a people who allowed virtually all he warned about to happen.
Todays democrats in power should be tried for treason . Poor Trump taking it like a champ while "Ziden" continues to stumble around and we suppose to make believe he is the president in charge 🙄
Some really great Republican presidents - Lincoln, Grant, Roosevelt, Eisenhower - have had their legacies somewhat forgotten or overshadowed by others in the 21st century. Sometimes I wish the GOP would talk less about Ronny and Donny and talk more about Abe, Teddy, and Ike!
I like Ike, and he was correct. But we’re still paying for the malevolent machinations of the Dulles brothers and the blowback isn’t close to finished.
But you know those roads to hell? I think they were partially paved by the Interstate Highway Act. Anyone crying for the destruction of small town life can put some blame there. It sure helped to destroy the Bronx.

With the assassination of JFK, we started down on a ruinous road at their disposal.
Remember, Kissinger and his influence (population control, China opening, greatest Soviet spy).
Kissinger is still wanting to be one of the little gods in favour of culling the world population so he can get more of everything.

You are overlooking what Trump did.
He is the first President in generations to not start any new wars. He successfully attacked and destroyed ISIS and pulled our troops from Eye-Wreck (Iraq). He set up a plan to remove us from Absurdistan but then Pedo Joe The Hair Sniffer botched it like he does everything he touches…..

Again, well done and “молодец!”

My guess you watched and listened very carefully to the Carson interview with RFKJr.
I’m humbled by your article and Eisenhower’s speech. Hit it right on the sweet spot.
Brilliant. These folks at the Bulwark are a real piece of work. Shrills.
No president is going to out the MICIMATT complex to which he owes his job.

I enjoy all your articles.
Eisenhower's farewell address was amazingly accurate and prescient, as well as being one of the all-time greatest addresses.
Good read Yuri! Linking it today @https://nothingnewunderthesun2016.com/

He was a smart guy.
But you know those roads to hell? I think they were partially paved by the Interstate Highway Act. Anyone crying for the destruction of small town life can put some blame there. It sure helped to destroy the Bronx.
Eisenhower was a tool and a fool and much much worse.
