I suggest you read some Smedley Butler. The USMC protects Dole and
United Fruit, not my liberty.

...let's start again. S.Butler was 'offered' to head a
'coup' ,supposedly to topple FDR. Never proven,though.

Sure it was.

"The plot fell apart when Butler went public. The general revealed the
details of the coup before the McCormack-Dickstein Committee, which
would later become the notorious House Un-American Activities Committee.
The Committee heard the testimony of Butler and French, but failed to
call in any of the coup plotters for questioning, other than MacGuire.
In fact, the Committee whitewashed the public version of its final
report, deleting the names of powerful businessmen whose reputations
they sought to protect. The most likely reason for this response is
that Wall Street had undue influence in Congress also. Even more
alarming, the elite-controlled media failed to pick up on the story, and
even today the incident remains little known. The elite managed to spin
the story as nothing more than the rumors and hearsay of Butler and
French, even though Butler was a Quaker of unimpeachable honesty and
integrity. Butler, appalled by the cover-up, went on national radio to
denounce it, but with little success.
Butler was not vindicated until 1967, when journalist John
Spivak uncovered the Committee's internal, secret report. It clearly
confirmed Butler's story:. In the last few weeks of the committee's
life it received evidence showing that certain persons had attempted to
establish a fascist organization in this country…
There is no question that these attempts were discussed, were
planned and might have been placed in execution if the financial backers
deemed it expedient…
MacGuire denied [Butler's] allegations under oath, but the
committee was able to verify all the pertinent statements made to
General Butler, with the exception of the direct statement suggesting
the creation of the organization. This, however, was corroborated in
the correspondence of MacGuire with his principle, Robert Sterling
Clark, of New York City, while MacGuire was abroad studying the various
form of veterans' organizations of Fascist character. Needless to say,
the survival of America's democracy is not an automatic or sure thing.
Americans need to remain vigilant against all enemies. . . both foreign
and domestic."
