"Lawyers and judges amount to little in Germany and we do not find there a class of political lawyers, who, in republics, always seem to get the management of affairs in their own hands." p. 128

'My Four Years In Germany' - 1917
James W. Gerard III / Late Ambassador To The German Imperial Court

James Watson Gerard III (August 25, 1867 – September 6, 1951) was a United States lawyer, diplomat, and justice of the New York Supreme Court.

Gerard was chairman of the Democratic campaign committee of New York County for four years. He served on the National Guard of the State of New York for four years. He served through the Spanish–American War (1898) on the staff of General McCoskry Butt. From 1900 to 1904, he was quartermaster, with the rank of major, of the 1st Brigade of the Guard.[4] He was elected to the New York Supreme Court in 1907, where he served as a judge until 1911.

Under President Woodrow Wilson, Gerard served as the American Ambassador to Germany[5] from 1913 to 1917.

In 1914, Gerard was the Democratic (Tammany Hall) candidate for U.S. Senator from New York. He defeated the Anti-Tammany candidate, Franklin D. Roosevelt, in the Democratic primary, but lost the election to James W. Wadsworth, Jr.

Upon returning to the U.S., Gerard went back to practicing law. He remained heavily involved in Democratic politics. He played a leading role in the nomination of Roosevelt for president in 1932 and was the treasurer for the Democratic National Committee.[6] After an unsuccessful campaign for U.S. President in 1920, Gerard ceased active pursuit of elected office but accepted a central role in U.S. Democratic Party politics as a public speaker, fundraiser, consultant, and mass media contributor.

My Four Years in Germany is a 1918 American silent war drama film that is notable as being the first film produced by the four Warner Brothers, Harry, Sam, Albert, and Jack, though the title card clearly reads "My Four Years In Germany Inc. Presents ...".[1] It was directed by seasoned William Nigh, later a director at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, and was based on the experiences of real life U. S. Ambassador to Germany James W. Gerard as described in his book. The film was produced while World War I was still raging and is sometimes considered a propaganda film.

Alfred Emanuel Smith (December 30, 1873 – October 4, 1944) was an American politician who served four terms as Governor of New York and was the Democratic Party's candidate for president in 1928.

The son of an Irish-American mother and a Civil War–veteran Italian-American father, Smith was raised on the Lower East Side of Manhattan near the Brooklyn Bridge. He resided in that neighborhood for his entire life. Although Smith remained personally untarnished by corruption, he—like many other New York politicians—was linked to the notorious Tammany Hall political machine that controlled New York City politics during his era.[1] Smith served in the New York State Assembly from 1904 to 1915 and held the position of Speaker of the Assembly in 1913. Smith also served as sheriff of New York County from 1916 to 1917. He was first elected governor of New York in 1918, lost his 1920 bid for re-election, and was elected governor again in 1922, 1924, and 1926. Smith was the foremost urban leader of the Efficiency Movement in the United States and was noted for achieving a wide range of reforms as New York governor in the 1920s.

Smith felt slighted by Roosevelt during the latter's governorship. They became rivals in the 1932 Democratic Party presidential primaries after Smith decided to run for the nomination against Roosevelt, the presumed favorite. At the convention, Smith's animosity toward Roosevelt was so great that he put aside longstanding rivalries to work with McAdoo and Hearst to block FDR's nomination for several ballots. That coalition fell apart when Smith refused to work on finding a compromise candidate; instead, he maneuvered to become the nominee. After losing the nomination, Smith eventually campaigned for Roosevelt in 1932, giving a particularly important speech on behalf of the Democratic nominee at Boston on October 27 in which he "pulled out all the stops.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Smith

James W. Gerard was nominated [selected] to run against Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1914 by Al Smith in order to deny Roosevelt the primary win. Al Smith also [selected] James W. Wadsworth Jr, the Republican [Tammany Hall corrupted] candidate for the win.

Gerard was serving as Ambassodor to and in Germany at the time of his nomination and the Democrat party primary election. The race was fixed from start to finish.

James W. Gerard was the power broker who convinced Al Smith to support Franklin D. Roosevelt in the presidential election of 1932.

You've heard his name before...

Al Smith.

By 1872, Tammany had an Irish Catholic "boss", and in 1928 a Tammany hero, New York Governor Al Smith, won the Democratic presidential nomination. However, Tammany Hall also served as an engine for graft and political corruption, perhaps most infamously under William M. "Boss" Tweed in the mid-19th century. The Tammany Hall ward boss or ward heeler, as wards were the city's smallest political units from 1786 to 1938, served as the local vote gatherer and provider of patronage.

INTERNATIONAL CARTELS
By Julius Klein

THE international cartel movement is by no means a new phenomenon. There were several such organizations in a thriving condition some years before the war, including the Franco-Belgian group of plate glass manufacturers which was set up in 1904, the borax organization, established in 1899 and comprising interests in Germany, France, Austria, Great Britain and the United States, and the glass bottle cartel dating back to 1907 and including most of Central Europe and the Scandinavian countries. Since the war, however, the movement has taken on several new aspects, the most conspicuous of which is its far greater activity. A widespread and general interest in it has resulted. Indeed, judging from the quantity of literature that has appeared within the last two years and the lengthy discussions devoted to the subject at recent conferences at Geneva and elsewhere, the international cartel has become, at least in the minds of leaders of European thought, both political and industrial, one of the outstanding factors in the rehabilitation of the Old World.

It is well at the outset to have that point definitely in mind, namely, that the underlying motive is clearly and predominantly the elimination of abnormalities within the European business world, and not primarily the forging of a weapon for an offensive against America. Quite conceivably this latter purpose may develop ultimately, but among the dozen or more conspicuously active cartels today (out of the hundred-odd international pooling arrangements which according to some authorities are now in force), the vastly preponderant interest is in the establishment of more orderly marketing conditions on the Continent. Germany, with her more than two thousand domestic cartels (or pools, as they would be called in the United States), has taken the lead in practically all of these movements and it is significant that about 75 percent of her exports find their outlet in nearby European markets. It is evidently the embarrassment arising from the new post-war trade barriers that has stimulated her cartel activities.

"Politics is downstream of culture." - Andrew Breitbart

After his election as president in 1920, Harding rewarded Hoover for his support, offering to appoint him as either Secretary of the Interior or Secretary of Commerce. Secretary of Commerce was considered a minor Cabinet post, with limited and vaguely defined responsibilities, but Hoover decided to accept the position.[100] Hoover's progressive stances, continuing support for the League of Nations, and recent conversion to the Republican Party aroused opposition to his appointment from many Senate Republicans.[101] To overcome this opposition, Harding paired Hoover's nomination with that of conservative favorite Andrew Mellon as Secretary of the Treasury, and the nominations of both Hoover and Mellon were confirmed by the Senate. Hoover would serve as Secretary of Commerce from 1921 to 1929, serving under Harding and, after Harding's death in 1923, President Calvin Coolidge.[100] While some of the most prominent members of the Harding administration, including Attorney General Harry M. Daugherty and Secretary of Interior Albert B. Fall, were implicated in major scandals, Hoover emerged largely unscathed from investigations into the Harding administration.[102]

Hoover envisioned the Commerce Department as the hub of the nation's growth and stability.[103] His experience mobilizing the war-time economy convinced him that the federal government could promote efficiency by eliminating waste, increasing production, encouraging the adoption of data-based practices, investing in infrastructure, and conserving natural resources. Contemporaries described Hoover's approach as a "third alternative" between "unrestrained capitalism" and socialism, which was becoming increasingly popular in Europe.[104] Hoover sought to foster a balance among labor, capital, and the government, and for this, he has been variously labeled a corporatist or an associationalist.[105] A high priority was economic diplomacy, including promoting the growth of exports, as well as protection against monopolistic practices of foreign governments, especially regarding rubber and coffee

After the US entered the war, the Committee on Public Information (CPI) hired Bernays to work for its Bureau of Latin-American Affairs, based in an office in New York. Bernays, along with Lieutenant F. E. Ackerman, focused on building support for war, domestically and abroad, focusing especially on businesses operating in Latin America.[21][22] Bernays referred to this work as **"psychological warfare.""

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Bernays#World_War_I

Propaganda, an influential book written by Edward L. Bernays in 1928, incorporated the literature from social science and psychological manipulation into an examination of the techniques of public communication. Bernays wrote the book in response to the success of some of his earlier works such as Crystallizing Public Opinion (1923) and A Public Relations Counsel (1927). Propaganda explored the psychology behind manipulating masses and the ability to use symbolic action and propaganda to influence politics, effect social change, and lobby for gender and racial equality.[1] Walter Lippman was Bernays' unacknowledged American mentor and his work The Phantom Public greatly influenced the ideas expressed in Propaganda a year later.[2] The work propelled Bernays into media historians' view of him as the "father of public relations."[3]

Warner graduated from George Washington University (GWU), earning his Bachelor of Arts in political science in 1977 and graduating with a perfect 4.0 GPA and was inducted into Phi Beta Kappa. He was valedictorian of his class at GWU and the first in his family to graduate from college.[3] GWU later initiated Warner into Omicron Delta Kappa, the National Leadership Honor Society, as an alumni member in 1995. While at GWU, he worked on Capitol Hill to pay for his tuition, riding his bike early mornings to the office of U.S. Senator Abraham Ribicoff (D-CT).[3] His sophomore year, Warner took time off from school to serve as the youth coordinator on Ella Grasso's successful gubernatorial bid in Connecticut.[4] Upon returning to Washington, Warner took a part-time job in the office of then-Representative Chris Dodd. He would go on to serve as Dodd's senatorial campaign manager during his freshman year of law school.[5] When his parents visited him at college, he got two tickets for them to tour the White House; when his father asked him why he didn't get a ticket for himself, he replied, "I'll see the White House when I'm president.

Peter Navarro Arrest 06/03/22

"Peter Navarro is making some serious charges against the FBI agents who arrested him. He says that the FBI agents that arrested him, Special Agents Walter Giardina and Special Agent Sebastian Gardner, neither read him his rights nor did they allow him to call his lawyer. These are serious violations of his constitutional rights and could have serious consequences for the FBI agents and any superior whose orders they were following."
